Distance?

Here's your answer:

Remember the phrase; "Heel-toe. Heel-toe."

What that means is, your lead toe should be on the same line as the catcher's heel. Your trail toe should be on your lead foot's heel. So, if you draw a line thru the catcher's heels, your lead/slot toe should be on that line. Then there should be a parallel line to the first line starting on your lead/slot heel. Your trail toe should be on that line.
