4 feet? How tall are you? Are you sure that measurement is correct?
You're correct that lengthening the stride runs the risk of slowing down the turnover. The trick is finding the right balance of the two. Hills, both up and down, strength work, and flexibility can all lead toward a better stride.

| Increased flexibility and strength will help increase your stride length .. But like Dan I would be more interested in a few things like your height and wight and what kind of sprinter you are - light on your feet, power, etc ... |
