Running

Does this make sense to anyone?

"The second piece of advice is about cadence - how frequently your feet touch the ground as you run. Most cyclists concentrate on maintaining a high cadence - turning the pedals at high frequency in a low gear, rather than vice-versa - and the same logic applies to running. Keep turning your feet over quickly, Sam explained, and you'll move faster, more easily. Short, frequent strides, with your foot landing underneath your body, are the way forward. Literally."

For both running and cycling for me it makes sense that you want to have longer strides with longer gaps between them than lots of short ones? Am I missing some obvious logic?
