It doesn’t take an expert in running gait analysis (which I am definitely not!) to look at Haile Gebreselassie’s stride as a thing of beauty. Simply watch the video below an you’ll see what I mean. It was with some degree of surprise, then, that I watched the second video posted below which shows that […]

Analyzing My Running Footstrike: Fun With High-Speed Video
September 26, 2009 By 5 Comments
Several days ago I posted about a new high-speed video camera that I recently purchased for my research lab. The Casio Exilim EX-F1 is an amazing piece of technology, allowing us to record extremely quick events at high-frame rates (as many as 1200 frames per second), and it is already proving itself worthy as a […]
Roger Bannister: Video of the First Sub 4-Minute Mile
July 9, 2009 By 1 Comment
I’ve recently been listening to the audiobook version of “The Perfect Mile: Three Athletes, One Goal, and Less Than Four Minutes to Achieve It” by Neal Bascomb. The book recounts the story of Roger Bannister, John Landy, and Wes Santee as they competed to become the first runner to break the 4-minute mile barrier. It’s […]
Wired Magazine: How Technology can Keep You Running
June 25, 2009 By 1 Comment
I just read an interesting article from the July 2009 issue of Wired Magazine titled “The Nike Experiment: How the Shoe Giant Unleashed the Power of Personal Metrics.” The article, written by Mark McClusky, discusses the development of the Nike+ training device, and how it has revolutionized the running experience for many people (view my […]

April 28, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Over the past few months I’ve begun to explore the world of social networking full out. For people in my 30-something age range, sites like Facebook and Twitter have suddenly exploded, and it seems like just about everybody I know is on one or the other (I’m now on both – you can view my […]

Below is a log of my results from races that I’ve run in my first 1 1/2 years as a serious runner. I compiled this list on Athlinks.com, which is a neat little site that allows you to compare your performance with others who run the same races as you. You can submit the info […]
New Balance Zante 2 Review: Solid Sequel to a Great Shoe
August 14, 2016 By 3 Comments
It’s been a long time since I’ve put over 100 miles on a pair of shoes. I’m not entirely sure that I exceeded that with the New Balance Zante 2 (I don’t track miles on shoes anymore), but since I’ve run most of my miles for the past several months in them, I’d have to […]
adidas Adios Boost 3 Review: Minor Updates to a Classic Racer
March 7, 2016 By 13 Comments
There are very few shoes in the $120+ range that I think are worth the money. The Nike Free Flyknit 4.0 is one, and the other that jumps immediately to mind is the adidas Adios Boost. The first two iterations of the adios Boost were personal favorites (see my reviews of v1 and v2) – […]
2015 Nike Free 5.0, 4.0 Flyknit and 3.0 Flyknit Released Today
April 1, 2015 By 12 Comments
One of my favorite running shoes from last year was the Nike Free 4.0 Flyknit. In fact, the 4.0 Flyknit might be my favorite Free of all-time – my only real complaint was that the lacing put a bit of pressure on the top of my foot with extended wear. In contrast to the 4.0, […]

Mizuno Wave Hayate Review: A Decent, But Mis-matched Trail Shoe
September 22, 2014 By 16 Comments
by David Henry Other than running in the Mizuno Wave Universe 3 a couple years ago, I have not run in any other Mizuno shoe. When Pete asked if I’d be interested in reviewing the Hayate, I was excited to try out, what was for me, an untested brand and one that was making an […]
runScribe Launches Wearable Running Biomechanics Data Collection Device on Kickstarter
August 20, 2014 By 12 Comments
I get pitches for Kickstarter campaigns frequently, but rarely do I post about them since it’s hard to assess the potential of a device that I have not had a chance to play with myself. I’m going to make an exception to this general rule here to announce the launch of a Kickstarter campaign for […]

June 11, 2014 By 7 Comments
Nike knows how to create killer marketing material, of that there is no doubt. I came across the promo video below for the new Nike Pegasus 31 a few days ago and thought I’d share – it features Mo Farah and Melissa Bishop, love the slow-mo gait lab footage! I actually bought a pair of […]
You Have To Watch This Running Video from 1982
March 26, 2014 By 8 Comments
I just got an email from a reader (thanks Kevin!) alerting me to a YouTube video that features a caveman being chased across a desert: A old-fashioned looking, forefoot striking runner on a treadmill: And a vertical ground reaction force plot on a computer screen: Is this a preview for the Born to Run movie?
