Crosstraining at the gym then a couple of miles at my PT session.  I ran on a treadmill with a force plate and it showed that my left forefoot products 27 units of force (not sure the metric) while my right foot products 32.8.  Besides that I have all sorts of alignment issues that make me even more inefficient.  I can't wait to start chipping away at these issues because fixing them should make me a bit faster.

Lbf, or pounds of force. Because we live in America! And don't use those socialist metric units.

The force plate sounds like a useful tool. That's great that you can begin to chip away at your issues. Hope that helps to clear up the hamstring stuff too.

I should probably know this from previous posts, but where do you do your PT? Your force plate readings are interesting, that seems like quite the differential (?). You could never tell it just watching you run. What kinds of things are they specifically go to do to re-align you?
