[Sportsandrec] Treadmill running form

The cord is a good idea.  Also, lean slightly forward, and touch the bars
every so often.  Develop a rythum.  ,.

Hi, all,

I've been running on a treadmill for a few weeks now, and my footfalls seem
short and choppy. At least part of this is because I keep one or both hands
on the guardrail for orientation purposes. I've found that if I don't touch
the solid barrier while running, I'll lose where I am in space and
immediately fall either left or right. I've heard of people who
circumnavigate this through attaching an elastic cord to the guardrails or
the handlebars, and I'm considering doing something similar. Does anyone
have suggestions or alternatives to offer?

Any and all advice is appreciated,
Justin
