I’ve had a few requests for gift cards for Christmas, and Canva plus my printer is helping me fulfill them. If you think a runner in your life would enjoy a running analysis or some strength sessions, hit me up!

The messages I get in my new job are way more fun! Glad to see so many runners accidentally crushing their Turkey Trots!

Congrats to the PR Running grads of our fall class at ! Unfortunately a combo of illness, work duties, and Thanksgiving cut our final class in half, but thanks to the magic of Canva and my crappy editing skillz, we’ve included everyone in the second pic 🤣.
This was a fairly quiet, but very focused group. Very excited that several of them will continue on into our advanced program!

When “just stop running” isn’t the answer you want to hear...
Stacy doesn’t want to give up running despite having some knee issues (one that was made worse by a surgery). She wasn’t sure if gait analysis could help any more than the treatments from surgeons, the Runner’s Clinic, and great physical therapy she’d already tried.

Her initial analysis (1st pic) was interesting as the .ai showed that despite a high cadence, and mid-foot landing closer to her body, her impact forces were still very high. We determined that her lack of knee flexion was keeping her leg too stiff to absorb shock.

Over the last 8 weeks she has progressed through a variety of heel tap exercises, a bridge series, and C-slide progression to work on trusting her knees to flex and using more hip extension with running. At follow-up, her impact scores are significantly improved and she is feeling great! (2nd and 3rd pic)

From Stacy- “I wasn’t sure how much I would get out of my work with you, but I figured it would be worth a shot. I am so glad that I did! Not only do I see the improvement in your data, I feel it in my super strong Fall training season that I’ve had, injury free other than a tight hammie (we both know that doesn’t really count as an injury, lol!)”

You can see her increased knee flexion in the 4th pic. Also interesting 🤓, she has ⬇️ her cadence and ⬆️ her ground contact time, leading to a larger range of movement on her hip which likely explains ⬇️ stability scores, but that gives us something new to work on!

Keep crushing it Stacy!
