ABOUT US

Running Science was conceived by a group of leading sports podiatrists who identified the need for a professionally staffed running store. Sydney needed a store which has proven technical footwear and the staff who knew their footwear and lower limb biomechanics.
AT RUNNING SCIENCE YOU WILL BE FITTED BY A DEGREE QUALIFIED SPORTS MEDICINE PROFESSIONAL. Our job is to assess and advise customers on footwear selection relative to foot type, foot function, activity and fit.

Our staff have degrees in either or a combination of sports science , podiatry , physiotherapy or sports physiology and are all active runners/sports people. Many of our staff are high level or have been in the past high level athletes. Before we add any shoe to our range we wear test new models for comfort, cushioning, durability and technical integrity. See our image below of our Brooks adrenaline ASR wear test on the Kokoda track.
