So you can keep running smoothly

INTERSPORT Kitzsport does everything for maximum fun and minimal risk of injury: Because running is healthy. But only if the running shoe is completely intact and individually tailored to the running style and physical requirements of its owner. That's why we recommend before you start: Check your running shoes (Worn out on one side/spot? Are the sole, cushioning system, lacing and inner shoe intact?), warm up briefly and then start off nice and easy!

Are you thinking about running regularly (again)? Then spring is the ideal season to start running. We have everything you need for a successful start to the new running season: the latest running shoes, functional running apparel and accessories, as well as valuable tips on training structure.

And that's not all: Together with Heinz Bédé-Kraut, we ensure that you are well prepared and offer extensive tests and advice in our shop.

• Basic muscle function test
• Measurement of body fat percentage
• Check of body stability
• Exercises to improve running technique
• Training advice

1. How do I find the right running shoe? – Nothing beats an accurate analysis on the treadmill and a 3D foot analysis. Because everyone runs and puts stress on their feet differently. For example, many people buckle inwards – they overpronate, then the shoe must provide stability.
2. Take not only time, but also your old running shoes with you. They tell us a lot about your foot position and rolling motion.
3. Tell us how much you have run so far, what goals you are pursuing and what you expect from your new running shoe. Because with a perfectly fitted running shoe you can get even more out of yourself and optimize your running style.
4. And: Don't forget the right running socks! This will help you prevent blisters and support the cushioning of the shoe in certain areas.

Whether you're a hobby runner or a marathon runner – whether you need running shoes for the road, trail running shoes, or natural running shoes – whether you have overpronation or underpronation: After 1,000 km at the latest, it's time for new shoes. These 3 steps will help you find a running shoe that …

• offers high wearing comfort and a secure running feeling,
• protects joints, ligaments and bones
• and ensures even more enjoyment of running.

1. 3D Foot Analysis

The feet are measured with a 3D scanner, which determines the exact shoe size and last width. It also shows how the body's weight is distributed on the foot. Whether you have flat feet, splay feet, or high arches – misalignments can be optimally compensated for through analysis and adjustment.

2. Running Analysis

On the treadmill, the movements are recorded via video camera and data about foot strike and rolling motion are obtained. Faulty rolling motions that restrict the body's natural cushioning system are identified.

3. The right shoe

Our consultants then select the appropriate shoes in the INTERSPORT Kitzsport Runningzone. They choose the appropriate support and – if necessary – a suitable insole. The sole is like an upgrade for the shoe – it stabilizes the foot, ensures better blood circulation and optimal pressure distribution.

• Running shoes from top brands for maximum stability, cushioning and support
• Gait analysis on the treadmill as a basis for choosing the right shoes
• Adjust running shoes: Footscan on the "Bootdoc" provides information on whether and which insoles make sense

So, take your feet in your hands and come to INTERSPORT Kitzsport. We look forward to seeing you!
