#169: A Conversation with a Shoe-and-Stride Expert
About this episode
Sarah and Dimity welcome on Spencer White, the veep of the Saucony Human Performance & Innovation Lab, to talk shoes and stride. After a quick geek-out, the dialog quickly turns advice on how to make running feel joyful and effortless. (Really!) A bit later on, you’ll find yourself standing on one leg and flexing one knee as Spencer talks about the biomechanics of running. (No advanced degree necessary to comprehend.) He goes over the appropriate time to consider changing your running stride, if ever. Finally, Spencer’s shoe-buying tips could save you from a future injury.
