Interesting article in NYTimes* about styles and its impact on results. I for one believed that how run is very important for optimal performance. But this article says otherwise. I will let you read the article but the net is 'styles don't mater' but you comfort with that does..

There will be heel strikers and men who land on their midfoot and there may be a few who land on their forefoot. There will be men who bob up and down and men who seem to glide. There will be men who flail their arms and those whose arms pump smoothly at their waists. And there is no way to tell by looking at a runner whether he will win, place or come in last.
