  • Registering your interest in joining our running research program does not guarantee you will receive a product to test or an invitation to our Biomechanics Lab. We unfortunately cannot guarantee, promise or predict any future testing.
  • If invited to test product, please note we will conduct detailed assessment of you wearing the shoes, whether that is in the field using mobile monitoring techniques, or in our gait lab using 3D motion analysis. This will involve you being filmed, but your confidentiality will be protected at all times. 
  • If you do receive product to test, it remains the property of The Biomechanics Lab. At times, you will be able to keep the product we provide you with. However, at other times, we will require you return the product back to The Biomechanics Lab so we can conduct further testing.
