I also think that running form depends on your leg strength/power and your weight. If you have lost strength/power and gained weight, your running form will change even at the same specific speed. I can still manage to run a 6 minute mile at 200 pounds, but not with the same form I would at 165 pounds, and certainly not like a 4-5 minute miler would when running a 6 minute mile. I need to take more strides over the same distance, with a lot less hang time. The 4-5 minute miler even when running at 6 minutes per mile is taking a longer stride, not so much because they are reaching further, simply because they have, relative to their weight, more explosive power and less ground contact time. They get more distance out of each stride with less relative effort. It looks like they are running slower. They make it look easy, because for them, it is. It's not about technique. It's about power to weight ratio.
