Stride Labs

Most runners train based on how they feel.

But what if you could understand exactly how your body performs, where your strengths lie, and what is holding you back?

Welcome to Stride Labs, a science-backed running experience in collaboration with Stance Health. This beginner-friendly experience combines an easy community run with professional performance assessments to help you understand your body like never before.

Whether you're training for your first 5K or your next marathon, this session will give you actionable insights to improve performance and reduce your risk of injury.

What's Included?

1. Community Walk/Run

Kick off the morning with a relaxed, beginner-friendly walk or run alongside the Stride community.

2. Performance Assessment Lab

You'll undergo three advanced assessments used by coaches and sports performance experts.

A. ForceDecks

Measures how explosively and efficiently you produce force.

Tests include:

• Single-Leg Jump – Measures your power output on each leg.

These tests help identify muscle imbalances and areas that may affect performance or increase injury risk.

It analyzes how each foot moves with every step, providing insights into:

• Running technique
• Foot strike and movement patterns
• Balance between both legs
• Running efficiency
