My knee pain is significantly reduced!

I was ready to quit running prior to the Midfoot Project due to knee pain. I was a midfoot runner before I started but did the program just to make sure. The Midfoot Project really dialed it in for me. The daily exercises were brutal on my hips and legs for the first two weeks, then I noticed no more soreness and my knee pain is significantly reduced!

I’m a running testament that RunSmart really works!

Prior to RunSmart I was continually injured and didn’t know how to get myself out of a bad cycle of repeat offenses. Since then, I’ve improved my running form with the Midfoot Project, Kneed for Speed as well as having my stride evaluated. I’m a running testament that RunSmart really works!

CAREN LANDRUM

My form has improved heaps!

Between Midfoot Project and Kneed for Speed I now feel like my form has improved heaps! Between better form and a good running specific strength program I feel like I can keep enjoying this running hobby well into old age. Thanks so much Steve and Patrick!

DENISE IGLESIAS

Thanks to Run Smart I was able to do the 11km option at the Auckland Marathon!

I finished in the top 10% and 4th of 40+ in my M60-64 age group with a time of 1:00:41.

Over the past couple years I’ve struggled with knee, calf & achilles issues to the point of nearly giving up. I’m now entering my 3rd year with RunSmart and it has made me stronger, changed my form and given me the motivation to keep going when things got really tough, especially during our 2 years of Covid lockdowns.

I'm excited to keep at it!

Since the Midfoot Project, I have seen significant reduction in soreness and pain in my left leg…been battling it for the past 5-6 years and it kept me from running consistently. I feel like I’m back to improving my form, consistency and overall running experience! Feels good and I’m excited to keep at it!
