I suspect this study will be heavily scrutinized and criticized by researchers and runners. Most tinkering with stride doesn't deal with length directly but more related to impact points within the stride ( heel or forefoot strike), lateral impact (pronation/suppination). I will have to read the study complete but this article is reading as if none of that matters as it relates to economy. I find that hard to believe.
