Hah, this is almost a year after you posted it, but I wanted to say thanks for this link. I'd been reading about the Pose method and Chi running and trying to run without a heel strike, but I never understood it until I took the suggestion in "Painful Truth #3" in that article to kick off my shoes and run down the driveway. I GET IT NOW.
So now I've been looking at the Vibram Five Fingers and Vivo Barefoot for running shoes instead of something padded. I'm very patient (i.e. lazy) about making athletic progress, so I'm OK with taking longer to train my muscles. We'll see. :)
