Hilly run up 1800 S to the mouth of Mueller Park canyon.  I felt very "heavy" this morning while I was running.  Couldn't get the legs to move right.  The effort didn't kill me going up and I really didn't pound the pace coming down.  As I saw my reflection in a store window I realized my form looked really bad.  Too much bending at the waist.  This has always been a problem for me and I think the cause is that my backside is disproportionately bigger then the rest of my body and I bend at the waist to compensate.

Sounds like a good assessment. I hate seeing my reflection while I'm running. I also hate seeing my shadow when the sun is behind me. I seem to bob left and right and it looks silly.

What???? You have no butt at all to speak of. Not that I really looked but now I might have to check it out :)

One of these days I'm going to have to have my wife bring a video camera out to the track and film me running so I can better assess my form. I'm sure I probably look rediculous as well.

Nah, I think it has to do with your highness (as in tallness)! :D
