good pedal form
i noticed on my ride today that during hard climbs the inside of my feet rub against the crank arms (mostly my right foot) i ride on Time ATAC mtb clipless pedals.
Should i be conscious of my 'duck' pedaling form and try to correct it or just flow with it? Could it possibly be related to how the cleats are positioned?
any help would be great

thanks!

Move your cleats back 4mm (towards the heel of the shoe). Better?
