Want to know what your running form actually looks like? Get personalized feedback from an RRCA-certified running coach without scheduling an in-person appointment.
Simply submit a few short videos of yourself running. I'll review your mechanics, identify opportunities for improvement, and provide practical recommendations you can put to work in your training.
Every runner has a unique stride. But it's difficult to know what your running mechanics look like when you're the one doing the running.
You might wonder if you're overstriding, whether your cadence needs work, or if there's something about your running technique you could improve.
A video-based running form analysis gives you a closer look at how you move, along with feedback from a coach who understands distance running.
The goal isn't to completely rebuild your stride. It's to identify meaningful opportunities to help you run more confidently and comfortably.
Not every difference or asymmetry needs correction. Recommendations are based on your individual movement, training history, and goals.
No special equipment, appointments, or travel required. All you need is a smartphone and someone to help record your running.
Complete the online purchase and provide some information about your running experience, training, and goals.
Follow the simple recording instructions to capture your running from a few different angles. Submit your videos for review.
Receive a personalized report with my observations, annotated video screenshots, and practical recommendations for your training.
This isn't an automated assessment or generic running form checklist. I'll personally review your submitted videos and evaluate your running mechanics in the context of your goals.
You'll receive straightforward feedback that explains what I observe, what may be worth addressing, and how to approach it.
You don't need a professional camera. A modern smartphone is all you need. The most important thing is capturing clear footage of your natural running stride.
Position the camera perpendicular to your running direction. Capture your entire body from head to foot as you run past the camera.
This view helps evaluate posture, stride length, foot placement, and landing mechanics.
Position the camera behind your running path. Record yourself running away from the camera, keeping your entire body in view.
This helps assess hip control, leg movement, and side-to-side symmetry.
Record yourself running toward the camera from a safe distance. Keep the camera stationary and your body visible.
This provides another perspective on leg alignment, knee movement, and upper-body mechanics.
Full submission instructions will be provided after purchase. You don't need to change or exaggerate your running form for the camera.
Whether you're just getting started or have years of running experience, understanding your mechanics can be a valuable part of your development.
You don't need to be an existing coaching client. This is a standalone service designed to give you useful, personalized feedback.
If you're experiencing pain or an ongoing injury, a sports physical therapist or qualified medical professional is the appropriate place to start. This service is a coaching assessment, not a medical or clinical gait evaluation.
Get personalized insights into your running mechanics and clear guidance on what to work on next.
No subscription. No ongoing coaching commitment.
No. You can record your videos outdoors on a flat, straight path. A treadmill can make recording easier, but it's not required.
No. A smartphone with video recording capabilities is sufficient. Having a friend record your running is helpful, and a tripod can also work.
My target turnaround is 3–5 business days after receiving usable video footage and your completed running questionnaire.
There isn't one perfect running form that every runner should imitate. I'll focus on meaningful observations relevant to your training and goals, rather than recommending changes simply because your stride looks different from someone else's.
Running mechanics are one part of a much larger picture that includes training load, strength, recovery, and individual factors. A video assessment cannot reliably predict injuries or diagnose their causes. It can, however, provide useful information for technique coaching.
Not at all. This is a standalone service available to any runner. No ongoing coaching commitment is required.
