Gait analysis- Nike Edition

If you want to start running the best piece of advice I can give you is to go and get a “Gait Analysis” at a specialist retailer like Sweatshop or Runners Need.

Nike Flyknit Zoom Agility

I’ve been waiting for the Nike Flyknit Zoom Agility to release for what feels like forever.
