While developing and testing running dynamics, the Garmin team found correlations between injuries and greater
imbalances with certain runners. For many runners, ground contact time balance tends to deviate further from
50–50 when running up or down hills. Most running coaches agree that a symmetrical running form is good. Elite
runners tend to have quick and balanced strides.
