New Shop in Gulfport

[Brent]

There is a new running store in Gulfport called Run n Tri...I went the other weekend after a race and was really impressed by the service and the way they fit you in shoes...

They have a really neat pressure plate thing you stand on and it tells you everything you need to know about your feet (balance, size, arch type, where most of your pressure is, areas for potential hot spots, etc.

They then video tape you running on the treadmill barefooted and then play it back slowly to analyze you foot strike and gait.

At this point they suggest shoes and then you get to try them out on the treadmill and get videoed again to compare the differences in your gait.

I would highly suggest to anyone looking for a good shoe store to make the drive and check it out.

The website is www.run-n-tri.com

sounds cool. i have talked with a friend locally who told me about that technology, but didn't know there was a place close by. if i ever get back to running for real, i will have to check it out.
