ps: one thing I noticed is that my stride is way too short. On the final meters I lost two positions. I had the feeling that my colleagues leg turnover was not the fastest but the distance they covered with a single stride at high speed was enormous compared to mine, don't know really how to explain it. I realized this before but on the short distance I think that it comes to light with more evidence.
My garmin pedometer measured an avg. cadence of 108 spm, max 113 (one leg I guess?).

What are your thoughts on this? At a point were I'm struggling to improve my performance, do you think that would be wise to try to work on proper running technique? I consider myself as quite clumsy where technical sports skills come into play, so may be this would be a flaw worth considering, don't know. Or do you believe, as some do, that the natural way I developed of running will be the most comfortable and suitable for me already?
