Running Gait & Shoe Optimisation
Run smarter — reduce injury risk and improve running economy with shoe-matched gait analysis.
What we do
Multi-angle video and pressure mapping to identify footstrike, loading and asymmetries.
Optional concurrent lactate or VO₂ measures to quantify the metabolic cost of different shoes.
Trial multiple shoes/insole options and produce a data-backed recommendation.
Typical session (60–90 min)
Pre-screen & history (10 min).
Warm-up & baseline (5–10 min).
Video + sensor + foot-pressure capture; shoe trial with HR/lactate/VO₂ (30–60 min).
Analysis & immediate debrief (10–15 min). Written report sent post session.
Deliverables
PDF with annotated stills, pressure heatmaps and key metrics showing intensity cost per shoe.
Shoe & insole recommendations and gait-retraining cues.
Option for follow-up shoe trial or 6–8 week review.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
RPG’s testing is performance-focused and not a substitute for podiatric treatment. For runners with a consistent history of injuries we will recommend a podiatrist for clinical orthotic prescription.
