RUNNING
GAIT ASSESSMENT
EVERY Runner will instantly feel the benefit of a well fitted running shoe.
STEP 1.
WE USE A STATE OF THE ART PELETON TREAD
A thorough assessment and fitting can take up to 30 minutes. We will begin by asking you some questions to understand your current running goals whilst learning a little about you, your body and any old injuries we need to be aware of.
STEP 2.
LET'S RUN
Following our chat we will take you for a short run, jog or walk (whichever is most comfortable for you) on our PELETON TREAD. We ask you run barefoot or with socks if you prefer so we can fully understand your specific gait cycle. We take a short film of your run so we can then show you your own gait (always interesting to see) and then discuss our recommended running shoes for you.
STEP 3.
OVER TO YOU
Now it's your turn to really feel and try the shoes. Depending on sizes available we will always provide a selection of 2/3/4 suitable runners for you to try. You are then very welcome to take each for a spin on the TREAD to really FEEL the shoes and how they perform underfoot. This must always be a simple process of what shoe FEELS right to YOU. We don't know how your body feels so only YOU will know the most comfortable feeling shoe for you. This is where we make sure sizing is correct, this can be trial and error as sizing varies massively between brands - this is a fun process and you are often not the size of shoe you think you are!
