Have an 'odd walk' as a child is often a question on online self diagnostic aspie tests.

I was kinda odd- I would lean forward in the direction in which I wanted to run - and then run with a leaned forward posture ( a lady friend of the family told me that decades later- i think it was just because i was pretending to be a rocket ship or something).

But if anything I swung my arms more than most kids.

I skip most of the time, but when I run, it looks like they are blowing behind me. Personally, it gives me better aerodynamics.
