Technique vs. Technology

My Nike Shox look gnarly covered in mud...

Oh! Basically, I've been learning a lot about running 'properly.'

My question is, do you rely on Technique or Technology?

Forces in Running?
Gravity, Ground Reaction, muscle elasticity, muscle contraction, torque (the re-direction of energy), and, finally, momentum or inertia.

I'm not an expert on this, I thought it was be an awesome picture, so I jumped on it. If you fear running because of the 'risk' or injury (soreness, etc...), you should ask yourself the question I started this blog with: Do you rely on technique or technology?

Goodness. I've been thinking about this workout for a while... I think it's going to kill me. It looks a little something like this:

Workout:
'Scaled Up' Angie
50 - 'Zen' Pull Ups (A deadhang pull up performed with legs in criss-cross apple-sauce.. haha)
50 - Ring Dips
50 - Band Rotations (Each side, I would've done KTE, but my back doesn't agree with the movement right now...)
50 - Full Squat Tuck Jumps

I sliced the reps in half and threw on 10# ankle weights.
Basically, one of the toughest workouts I've ever done. The hardest part of the workout, surprisingly, was the the band rotations with the 5# ankle weights on each arm.
