The host, drawing from their experience as a physio and running enthusiast, explores the paper's findings, highlighting biomechanical changes observed in runners using these shoes.

OUTSTANDING
Trying to contain my enthusiasm about The Run Smarter Podcast but when you are separated from the hobby that you love because of an injury and find someone like Brodie Sharpe to help you recover for the long term there is much cause for celebration. This is the real deal for anyone who loves to run. Jim, Elon, NC
Best podcast for injured athletes!
I’m an aged competitor, a “hybrid athlete” as they say, an even amount of running and strength. Unfortunately a chronic running condition (Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy) has hampered my performance for years and ultimately sidelined me. After listening to Brodie’s podcast I felt like he was speaking directly to me! So much so that I hired him after undergoing bilateral PRP injection in both hamstring tendons. I’m confident he’ll get me back to doing what I love, Spartan and Hyrox competitions!
A Must listen for runners!
Great podcast, lots of motivational tips. Excellent host and guests
