That is awesome, I love it! Very jealous.
I've done a lot of research on running contacts, and we started teaching Bentley using the Trkman method. I know we're not exactly a great example (made a mistake along the way). But I think we have a good idea as to what it's all about.
The idea behind Trkman is to teach the dog to correctly stride...so "all out running" is the end goal, but it starts on a board just doing the down side to teach the stride through the bottom. There are a lot of good youtube videos about it, if you just search Trkman running contacts.
I also blogged about our adventure re-teaching, so that might help at least to see the correct set up (PM me if you don't have the link), I don't want to post it here.
