Relearning My Running Stride with Vibram KSO’s

This morning I completed my third street run and fourth workout in my Vibram KSO’s. Taking my standard 4 mile run and it was very comfortable and my speed improved from the last time and is getting closer to my times with my previous athletic shoes.
I’m adapting better than I could imagine to the more upright approach you need with the KSO’s. When I’m out there its strange sometimes I don’t feel like I’m putting forth the effort I should, like I should be struggling more.
I have bad habits I know I have to be conscious of during my runs and those seem to be changing on their own with the KSO’s. One bad habit I have is my feet would fly off in an awkward angle (sometimes scarping m other ankle as I pulled in trying to correct my stride) as I tried picking up speed, wasting energy and effort. I started to pick my pace up today and my feet through habit started to fly out to the side but because of the running style you need to have with these KSO’s, in one stride I corrected this, in fact the KSO’s just let me put my energy & power into my forward stride easily!
I put a lot of importance in how I feel after my runs and I don’t feel like my body is as beat up as normal from my runs. My hamstrings, quads and lower back aren’t in a tight ball as normal yet I’m not far off from my previous pace with my normal running shoes.
This is cool, yet strange I don’t know what to think about this, I’ll keep moving forward with my workouts to see how things progress.
