Monthly Meeting - Gait Analysis
Monthly Meeting
October 4 at 7:00 pm
Whole Foods Market
Guest speaker: Debbie Sue - GAIT ANALYSIS
I am bringing back Debbie Sue less than a year after the last presentation, because gait analysis is such a useful and little understood topic. This is not just your basic overpronating/underpronating presentation. Please make an effort to come to this meeting even if it is the only one you can attend all year.
Plus, this will be our first meeting at Whole Foods Market, our new meeting place. They have the most delicious and healthy foods available for purchase. You have your choice of sandwiches, deli casseroles, side dishes, meats, salad and soup bar, single serve deserts from the bakery, and plenty of cold drinks. Perhaps you can split some dishes with a new friend (or friends) so you can all sample more variety. If you are new, we always get a friendly crowd at these meetings, so please come out and join us!
Directions:
Whole Foods Market
NW corner of Wyoming and Academy
We will be meeting in the sunroom just south of the main entrance.

I recommend this. Since I had gait analyis, I have gone from 25-30 miles per week to 70 miles plus on my way to the Duke City Marathon, without getting hurt. I have done this by paying attention to a few simple issues pointed out in the gait analysis: the arch in my back, weakness in my adductors and the bunion on my left foot. Some of the changes seemed small, but they have all added up over time.

I definitely agree. I haven't seen as obvious a benefit as you have in terms of mileage. She was able to show me some streches and strengthening excersizes that I do 3x per week (she recommended daily but I never quite make that) and I have noticed less fatigue. Its hard to keep focused on my running form, as my mind wanders, but it is getting easier.
I've found that I can't do too many new things while I'm running. I've mainly tried to focus on my back. I've used plyometric exercises and the pt exercises to work on some of the other issues. It is a process of chipping away at things.
Where does she work at so that I might get in touch with her since I have missed this meeting.
She was at the Lovelace Rehab Hospital, 505 Elm St., but I think they've moved her more recently. My last number for her was 343-6328.
