WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Former NFL Wide Recevier Anquan Boldin RECEIVED

A runRite ACCESSMENT

Improve 40 yard Dash! - For real!!!!

Anquan's assessment showed where he was losing almost 3/10 of a second in the first 20 yards of  his 40 yard dash and placing over 70% more stress on his right knee and right leg hamstrings.  Addressing the issues cut 2/10 off his 20 yard dash...all in less than 2 weeks.

​

"It nailed my weaknesses. I cut 2/10ths of a second off my 20 yard dash in less than 10 days and my booty has lifted from doing the exercises it gave me..." 

​

Annie Burlingham- Pole Vaulter

 I had chronic ankle injuries in college and I discovered why the symptom always came back. The RunRite System tells me what I need to do to improve my running technique and prevent injuries! "

Teddy Lampkin - Former Collegiate Long jumper

The RunRite Assessment - it's not just for elite athletes

Victor V. - Age: 47

Mesa, AZ

“I went from 8:30 mile pace in my last marathon to 7:45 pace less than 6 weeks after taking the RunRite Challenge. I was afraid to run fast in training because of chronic injuries.  But after the first 10 days of doing my stretches my body felt amazing with no signs of Achilles pain while running!”  

Eric P. - Age: 43

Phoenix, AZ

“This is the most advanced analysis I have ever seen for a runner.  Less than 2 weeks after my analysis I cut over 6 minutes off my 8K personal best!”  

Cindy K. - Age: 36

Scottsdale, AZ

“I’m in my first year of training for a marathon. I thought I couldn’t run due to a history of knee problems. But since less than a week after my analysis, I’ve been able to run as many as 

10 miles on any day with no knee or foot pain for over 3 months.”
