for example :
the heel contact phase to the toe contact phase (the loading response phase) is ... percentage in the stance phase of running.What percentage?
the toe contact phase to the heel off phase (the midstance phase) is... percentage in the stance phase of running.What percentage?
the heel off phase to the toe off phase (push off phase) is ...percentage in the stance phase of running.What percentage?
Two foot switches are used to record the events running in my research.
please help me. thanks
The percentage of the stance and swing phase will depend on the speed. As fast as it is, lower each stance sub-phase will be.

Precisely it is depend on horizontal velocity of center of mass (COM) of human body in human locomotion. Since the running and walking have same kinematical patterns so, it doesn't matter you are evaluating which one.
It depends on your running speed and some parameters. Novachek and Vaughan make some studies about that.
