Does Anyone Analyze their Running Form?

<p>Does anyone here analyze their running form?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As I said in my <a href="http://www.kickrunners.com/t/75751/hello-running-newbie-in-erie-pa">intro post</a> I'm a golf instructor, so I'm very interested in the form. I'm also new to running, so I am at the point now where I think everyone should get golf lessons, and I'm taking the same approach to running. I want to do this right from the start and not develop bad habits.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I shot some high-speed video of myself running around the indoor golf academy, and I used some <a href="http://analyzrgolf.com/" target="_blank">video analysis software</a> I wrote to look at the videos.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On the left you'll see I'm trying to force a heel strike and succeeding. On the right I'm overdoing a fore-foot strike. Ignore the caption: though I'd prefer the form on the right over the left it might be a bit too extreme. :) (And there's more to form than the location of the strike.)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So that's my question: how many of you analyze your form?</p>
<p> </p>
