Lifting your knee and having your heel under your butt happens later in the stride as you move your leg forward. Here's a couple photos that show real runners in action with awesome leg kick. <a href="http://ironmantriathlontips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/tergat.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img class="size-medium wp-image-985 alignnone" title="tergat" src="http://ironmantriathlontips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/tergat-300x225.jpg" alt="tergat" width="300" height="225" /></a><a href="http://ironmantriathlontips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/gebra.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-984" title="gebra" src="http://ironmantriathlontips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/gebra-300x215.jpg" alt="gebra" width="300" height="215" /></a> Hi Vincent,

Any thoughts on that? I've only heard it the one time, so would be curious to get more peoples opinions I’ve heard for the C’s that you want to more lift your knee quickly and kick your butt under your body instead of behind to more simulate real running.
