[QUOTE=Sprocket Man]3. One cure for a heel striker may be to shorten your stride and increase your leg turnover. That said, I don't know if it's really necessary to go against what you feel comfortable doing. A heel striker isn't necessarily a bad thing. Faris Al Sultan won the Hawaii IM in 2005 and he's a heel striker.

Thanks for the advice! Is it true that heel striking is actually bad for you though? I seem to remember hearing that somewhere once upon a time. Looks like I also need to find a pool somewhere . Thanks for the help!
