Is Forefoot Running Faster?

There are many reasons forefoot running is more economical and faster than heel strike running. For one, the significantly low-impact nature of forefoot running produces less vigorous muscle tuning responses to attenuate impact-shock. Research has shown that landing with less impact during running, like in forefoot running, uses less energy for muscle tuning (because there’s less impact produced) which in turn shores up more energy for more miles.
