  1. I'm preparing a paper on sprinting, and I'm interested mostly in matters of
    technique. I can find a lot of support on the internet for the "dorsi-flex"
    method (cocking the foot upwards) in the recovery leg. But I'm also looking
    for arguments against, which at the moment I can't find. Does anyone here
    disapprove of this running method? If so, what are your reasons for
    rejecting it?

    Thanks

    Pat B.

    How much sprinting do you do? When was your last 100m race? What was
    your time?

    Fifteen minutes per day.

    Never. My last 100 yards race was in 1958

    What was your time?

    A hand-timed 10.1 secs.

    Does that help you form an opinion about dorsi-flex running?
