What is the 3D Running Gait Technology?
This next-gen, state-of-the-art system uses multiple cameras, a treadmill, and advanced technology to analyze your gait and provide actionable detailed analysis with specific changes to improve your efficiency.

This system is the latest advancement in 3D technology.
The 3D gait analysis provides in-depth improvement recommendations to improve your running economy so you can run further and more efficiently. The training portal allows you to see your individual results and follow a personalized plan.

Plus, a 3D gait analysis includes access to the Oregon Running Clinic training portal, where you can login at any time to see your personalized gait retraining program. From one easy-to-use dashboard, you can track your running performance and follow along with your performance training plan, track your progress and monitor your training loads to ensure you keep your risk of injury low.
Why Should I Get a 3D Analysis?
A gait analysis allows you to pinpoint where there are deficiencies in your form, and help build a plan to improve it. If you’ve struggled with repeat injuries, or have never recovered from a past incident, a gait analysis can help get to the root of the problem and solve it. Runners can see a 5% improvement in running economy, which leads to a 3.8% improvement in performance in distance events. This means a 4-hour marathoner could save 9+ minutes!
A gait analysis can help you:
Reduce pain and fatigue while running
Increase speed with reduced effort
Gain higher mileage on shoes before they break down

Understand how your flexibility and strength impact your running gait

Why is Gait so Important?
Unlike other sports, we don’t spend much time learning how to run. Basketball players spend hours perfecting their layups. Soccer requires you to practice the perfect shot. Runners practice running, but don’t tend to spend much time thinking about how to improve their form. But proper gait is just as important as a proper free throw.
Improving your gait can help reduce the stress of every step while running. If you’re able to reduce the stress by 10%, you can run twice as far before your body breaks down.
Improved gait also contributes to overall improved running economy. Running economy is the concept of how much energy you need to put in to get speed out. A 3D gait analysis can help determine your running economy, and provide personalized recommendations to improve it, such as adding specific strength training to your routine.
