Running Performance in Pasadena, CA
Run Faster. Stay Healthy. Go Further.
Struggling with recurring running injuries, efficiency issues, or a plateau in your performance? We use video gait analysis and targeted programming to help you run stronger and more durably.
Running Harder Isn't the Same as Running Smarter
Recurring injuries are stealing your training time
Knee pain, hip tightness, or foot problems that flare every few weeks aren't just bad luck—they're signals your mechanics or load management need attention.
Generic running plans don't address your specific weak links
Following a mileage plan doesn't fix the movement patterns or strength gaps that are limiting your speed and causing breakdowns. You need analysis, not just volume.
Race goals slip away when you can't stay healthy
Missing weeks of training because of recurring issues makes it impossible to build fitness consistently. You need a plan that keeps you on the road—not on the sideline.
Running Performance Built on What Your Body Actually Does
We analyze your gait on video, identify the mechanical and strength factors limiting your performance, and build a targeted plan to improve efficiency and durability.
What We Help Runners Work Through
From gait inefficiencies to recurring overuse injuries, we address the mechanical and strength factors that limit performance and keep active runners from reaching their goals.
Runner's Knee - Anterior knee pain that worsens with mileage or downhill running.
IT Band Syndrome - Lateral knee or hip pain that builds through a run and limits mileage.
Hip Pain and Tightness - Hip flexor, glute, or labral issues affecting stride mechanics and power.
Plantar Fasciitis and Foot Pain - Heel and arch pain that's worst in the morning or after longer runs.
Achilles Tendinopathy - Achilles stiffness or pain that limits push-off and accumulates with training load.
Shin Splints and Stress Reactions - Lower leg pain from training load increases or mechanical contributors.
Gait Inefficiency - Overstriding, poor arm carry, or asymmetrical mechanics limiting speed and increasing injury risk.
Recurring Overuse Injuries - Patterns that keep returning because the underlying movement or strength issue hasn't been addressed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thinking about running analysis or performance programming? Here are the questions Pasadena runners ask us most.
We record your running on video and review it in detail together. We look at mechanics like foot strike, cadence, hip and trunk control, and arm carry. Then we connect what we see to your injury history and goals and explain what adjustments could improve your efficiency and durability.
Not at all. Many clients come in healthy but want to run more efficiently, reduce injury risk, or improve their performance for a specific race. You don't need pain to benefit from knowing how you move.
Yes. We can build a performance and strength plan around your race timeline that addresses any recurring issues, fills strength gaps, and keeps your training on track heading into the event.
Usually not. Our goal is to keep you running while we work on what's causing the problem. We'll adjust your training load as needed, but stopping entirely is rarely the approach we take.
A generic plan tells you how far and how fast to run—it doesn't tell you why you keep getting hurt or where your mechanics are breaking down. We look at you specifically, identify what's limiting you, and build a plan around that.
