Our Philosophy:
Our fit process is guaranteed to help you find the right shoe for your needs. We believe that by watching you move, we can determine the best shoes for you. It is simple. It is thorough. The process takes about 30 minutes. We evaluate your foot structure, your tendencies from foot to knee to hips to shoulders. We will talk about injuries, goals, and exercise habits. The more information the better. After stirring it all together, we find reliable, performance friendly footwear that will match your needs. Whether you are walking for fitness or preparing for your next race, we can help. If you don't have time for a full evaluation or if you just need a simple refill, check out our online store. We box it. We ship it. We deliver it. FREE. Whether you are in Portland, Oregon, or Portland, Maine, your shoes to your door...free freight.

Top 5 Summer Injury Prevention Suggestions from PRC:
-
Good Equipment: Get a gait evaluation. Let us watch you run to determine the best shoe for your biomechanics, surface, distance, and injury history. The evaluation is FREE. Shoes range in price from $85-$135.
-
Hydration: Run with water or sportsdrink. Get a hydration device and carry fluids to replenish you while you are running. It helps with thirst and hydration also speeds recovery and keeps you feeling awesome throughout your exercise. Amphipod Belts: $40.
-
Proper Training: Get a Run Log and track your weekly mileage. Try not to exceed a 10% increase from one week to the next. Run Log: $9.
-
Foam Roller: Welcome to the new world of stretching and flexibility. Foam Rollers are like having your own personal massage therapist at a fraction of the cost. High Density 36-inch Foam Rollers: $40; 18" High Density rollers: $28
-
Rest and Recover! The only time you are actually getting stronger, faster and better is when you are resting. Your muscles need time to rebuild and your tendons need time to rest. Make sure you take some easy days as you train for your Spring marathon or summer endurance events.
