For endurance runners, it’s recommended that they do not lift their knees too high, and take shorter strides, as taking longer strides consumes more energy. Long distance runners need to spread out that energy over the long run, hence, it’s better that they take shorter strides. When you land your foot on the ground, make sure that your ankles are flexed, so that you can create more ‘jump’ in the push off.
