Just lift your legs as high as you can, take huge strides and start jogging

Jog on the spot, with your legs quite high, then slowly go forward. And go faster and faster  . Until you have the confidence to stride/run.

i rather think talking of 'running ' on pro-jumps is a bit of a red herring. It is really more 'skipping' . When running, 1 'grounds' and controls each foot in turn before the next bound. Do that on stilts and you just kill the bounce, and create an ungainly hobbling jog with 6ld of metal , glassfibre and plastic on each leg.
But with skipping you 'ride' the movement, as soon as one hoof touches the ground the other leg is swinging/bounding forewards.
Please peeps tell me if that seems OK

Looking at some vids of people "running" I'd have to agree with the "skipping" theory.
Having said that some people have a very good technique and does look more like running so its a grey area!

Talking about skiping I never could skip despite several girls trying to teach me (the type of skip without a rope I mean and don't ask why I wanted to) But I was on my PJ's and suddenly I can skip (still can't do it without them) Now the important question Do PJ's make you more feminine (am I getting in touch with my female side ) And is there likely to be any permanent side effects
