Oh, you mean the 'ninja run'? That's a good question. It's just kinda
associated
with martial arts people. If I had to go out on a limb, I'd guess it came
from the
ninja manga of the 70's that I read about in some Animerica Extra article years
ago, I think. It kinda increases stability and forces you to keep your
movements
precise when you run. At least, that's what it seemed like when I tried
it...Try it
yourself and see.
