How to Run Light, Easy, Fast?

Are you also thinking about improving your running technique? I have been running since October 2013 which is more than one year spent in barefoot shoes (Vibram FiveFingers). However, I still do not know how to run lightly, especially up hill.

I know it is good to focus on effortless movements, breathing through the nose and doing home workouts to improve, therefore I do all these things. However, I don't know where to go from here. I think I have reached a plateau and I need professional advice. What would you recommend for me?

Thanks :)

I am a trainer as well as ESl teacher, lol.   You probably already do this, but when you cross-train (jumping jacks, running stairs etc.) make sure you remain light on your feet.  If you are looking to get faster, do interval training, 30 sec. sprint, 30 sec. walk for a period of 10-12 minutes and build from there.  You can either go longer, increase your sprint time or decrease your rest.  Only make one adjustment at a time though.  Good luck!
