Never Wipe Your Ass With a Squirrel

After years of experimentation, I finally stumbled upon two good techniques to assist downhill running. First, I shift my weight backward by pulling my shoulders back a little bit... sort of like pinching my shoulder blades together. Second, I “sit back” slightly like I’m sitting in a chair. Since this subject is much more difficult to visualize than uphill technique, I demonstrate the idea in this YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDSrUyzFPKc
