What is a Running Assessment?

Our running assessment involves a thorough evaluation to understand your unique biomechanics, identify areas of weakness or injury, and optimize your running technique and training plan. This comprehensive process includes:

  • Subjective History: We delve into your running history, training program, goals, and any past/current injuries or areas of weakness.
  • Physical Exam: We conduct a detailed physical examination to assess your musculoskeletal health and identify any imbalances, limitations, or present injuries. 
  • Strength Capacity Testing: We evaluate your strength of key muscle groups to determine areas that may require improvement and targeted strengthening.
  • Video Gait Analysis: We analyze your running gait to identify biomechanical inefficiencies that may be contributing to your discomfort or reducing your running economy. 

What to Expect

During your running assessment session, expect to be actively engaged. Please come prepared with a pair of shorts and running shoes. You will participate in strength capacity testing and undergo a running assessment, which will elevate your heart rate and get you sweating!
