HOW CAN YOU TELL?

The easiest way to determine your running gait is by looking at one of your used pair of shoes. Place the shoes side by side on a table, toes pointing away from you. Look at the shoes from eye-level and you should be able to see one of three scenarios...

• If the shoes have a slight or significant inward tilt, then you exhibit an over-pronation running gait.

• If the shoes have a slight or significant outward tilt, then you exhibit an under-pronation (supination) running gait.

• If the shoes appear to be neutral and do not tilt inward nor out, then you exhibit a pronation-neutral running gait. Pronation-neutral runners have the full range of shoe options available and typically choose based on individual preference.
