It’s time to meet PTF’s Christmas in July sponsor…. Skora Running!

The running ability is programmed into the human DNA. For millions of years, we have run from danger and towards the things we seek.

Skora promotes Real Running, running how nature intended; efficient, effective and with ease. As the foot strikes the ground, contact is made in the middle of the foot, not the heel. Running with a whole foot gait results in less impact energy and force shock transmitted through the body than compared to the heel strike gait favored by conventional running shoes which are built with more cushioning, support and a thicker heel.

The 3RS – Real Running Reminders

Reconnect to your body. The mind-body connection provides important feedback (proprioception). Keeping the feet closer to the running surface reconnects the sense of touch and facilitates a light landing that is consistent with a whole foot gait. Awareness of hour your feet connect with the running surface helps give your body greater control and efficiency.

Reposition your body. The position of your body greatly affects your running form.  Maintain an upright posture, aligning the hip to the head. Land with your feet under your body, not in front. Keep your knees slightly bent, avoid landing with an outstretched. straight leg. A good running body position enables the legs and feet to naturally absorb impact energy and forces throughout the body.

Find your rhythm. The rhythm of your stride is an important part of maintaining good form.

While every body and gait is different, a good stride rhythm is around 180 foot strikes per minute.

A shorter stride length, encourages a whole foot landing that allows your entire body to work as efficiently, and bio mechanically correct as possible.

I received the product mentioned below to facilitate my review.* Well actually my daughter was the one who tested the Skora in a recent competition.

When the new Skora running shoes arrived I was a bit impressed with the detail to packing and the box. Yes. I’m a nut. I like pretty boxes and packages so when the box was a bit different from the normal shoe box, it impressed me (smiling).

Skora Women’s Phase in Dark Purple/Black/Green. I love the colors of the Phase, seriously who want’s to wear a shoe the exact same color and as the person next to you?

You can shop for Skora Men’s and Women’s shoes in Core, Phase, Form and Base; not to mention Gift Cards for those whom are hard to shop for.

“I was really excited to try on my Skora shoes from the second I got the box in my hands. It has a unique magnet design, and just got me excited about the shoes.  They look really neat, I love the colors and the fit. It was perfect. Another big plus was the small laces. It’s the little things that count, and I get annoyed at other shoe brands with really long laces that practically touch the ground.”

“I was able to go on a 5 mile bike ride, and a 1 mile run with these shoes. They were comfortable and my laces never came untied. I’m not a long distance runner, but I could see where going long distance, it may not have the comfort for some people. If you need a lot of support, then this may not be the shoe for you, but if you like the feeling of being close to the ground and a more natural feel, then these shoes would be great. I would definitely buy and recommend these shoes to other people.”  “Thanks Skora!”
