01

Film from the side

Square to the runner, camera level, whole body in frame. A treadmill is perfect. Slow-mo (120fps+) sharpens the detail.

10 seconds to set up

02

Pick your mode & upload

Distance/XC or sprint, then upload straight from your camera roll. Everything runs in your browser.

Your video stays on your device

03

Get your stride report

Cadence, overstride, trunk lean, bounce, symmetry, each flagged and explained, with drills to work on.

Results in under 30 seconds

04

Train. Re-screen. Repeat.

Work the drills, film again, and compare. The more you screen, the clearer your progress gets.

Why Run Lab

Your stride is talking. Here's what it's saying.

See what the eye misses

Frame-by-frame pose tracking measures the stride patterns research ties to efficiency and durability, the same ones a gait lab checks.

Drills, not just flags

Every pattern comes with specific drills and cues, from cadence work to single-leg strength, so you know exactly what to do next.

Distance and sprint

Two modes tuned to the event. Cadence, overstride and bounce for distance; knee lift, hip drive and front-side mechanics for sprint.

Honest about the science

Cadence is pace-dependent and 180 is a myth. We read your numbers against your pace and tell you where 2D video can and can't measure.

Your stride report

Everything you need
to train with purpose.

    Cadence, steps read, trunk lean, and symmetry at a glance

  • Flagged patterns

    Plain-English explanations, read against the pace you filmed

  • Drills to work on

    Cadence work, mobility, and single-leg strength, tailored to what we find

  • Coaching cues

    Land under your hips. Run tall. Language you can use on your next run

  • Research-backed

    Grounded in published gait science, with the debated parts flagged

  • Re-screen anytime

    Film again after training and compare. See the change

Overstride · Work on

Shin reaching out ahead of the body at contact

Knee bend at contact · Monitor

Landing a touch stiff-legged, less shock absorption

Trunk lean · Clear

Balanced forward lean, in a strong range

Drills to try

Metronome runs at +5% cadence
Wall lean drive (land under the hips)
Soft-landing skips (knee absorption)
Single-leg RDLs (even out L/R)

A single screening tells you where you are.
Re-screening tells you where you're going.

Mechanics shift with fitness, fatigue, and the work you put in. Film again after a training block and compare. The kind of gait tracking that used to mean a trip to a lab, now from your phone, on your schedule.

Built on the research, honest about the limits

Run Lab runs on the same computer-vision engine behind CritchPitch's pitching screening, retuned for running gait. The thresholds and cues come from published work on running mechanics, Heiderscheit on cadence, Bramah on injury-associated patterns, Teng & Powers on trunk lean, and more.

It is a movement screening, not a diagnosis. A single 2D clip can't measure force or true 3D rotation, so where a number is a screening estimate, we say so.
