Dr. Rhoden is very knowledgeable and was so thorough in his examination and analysis of my running, while also making it understandable and relevant to me. This is such a great service and RunLab has all the right experts. I think every runner should take the time to get their running analyzed, it's so important! I can highly recommend RunLab and Dr. Rhoden.

My son (15) had a great experience at RunLab today and we are so grateful for the insight needed to prevent further running injury. Dr Matt B was very knowledgeable and understanding. Jocelyn ran a fab gait analysis—we are excited for the results.

I recently started running and experienced knee issues around the IT band that slowed me down or make it hard to walk or run for weeks. After a few months of trying 'internet' solutions, I came to run lab to solve the issue.
At the first session, my gait was analyzed and my incorrect gait was explained to me. I was running incorrectly which could be fine for short 1-3 mile distances but was causing damage during longer runs.
My gait was fixed in a couple of sessions and after a few … More weeks I was able to run long distances without pain in my hips and knees. I went from having some fatigue and pain from doing 10+ mile runs to just normal exhaustion.
Runlab is extremely specialized and I am lucky I decided to come here to fix my running issues. -
Knowledgeable trainers with a focus on goals you set with them. They have good insight into what training one needs to keep in shape and improve toward goals.
Also, I’ve rarely seen as wise a use of space. It’s not a huge facility, but they give each client the exercise they need in the space they need. -
great workout!

I went there initially to treat a calf injury. When I was able to run again, we started working on improving my running form. I'm now running 40+ miles a week, feeling strong and injury free.

RunLab was great! I saw Dr. Eric Rhoden to help with a calf strain I suffered a few weeks before a half marathon . I was terrified I’d not be able to run it, but with his expertise , advice, and training plan, I not only managed to run it , but ended up with a PR ! Highly recommend!

RunLab is AWESOME!!! Great analysis of running and helping me recover from an injury. Super professional! Detailed recommendations for strengthening exercises. Helped me get my form better so I correct what was causing the injury.
Can’t say enough good things! -

Working with the RunLab in general, but Dr. Matthew Bierschenk in particular has been an amazing experience (worth driving from Houston to Austin for). He and his team developed a personalized exercise plan that not only addressed my immediate concerns but also focused on long-term injury prevention. If you want to "run happy" go pay them a visit. Happy trails 🙂

Great session with Dr Murray! He had some suggestions to help with my cardiac rehabilitation
Dr Murray gave me a great message! No back pain this afternoon! Thank you! -
These guys are amazing. I have been having a complicated issue with my left ankle. After each run my ankle would hurt for couple of days sometimes a week. I had stopped running all together due to constant discovery after the run. I had tried multiple orthopedist and physiotherapy as well but no results. Turns out it was my bad running form. With runlab writing one week I started to see improvement. After my 5th session I started running pain free. I am now able to go for longer run and enjoy one … More of my favorite activity. Dr. Eric is fantastic. He helped me understand the form while I am running and correct the course as needed. Definitely recommend anyone having issues with running.

Multiple injuries and surgeries. 2 months on double crutches.
2 years later, I was running again. Year 3 - marathon. The context here around better form, enhanced biomechanics (I have a masters in mechanical engineering and I can’t unsee their explanations), and genuine care - all these have helped me somehow stay injury free and close in on the pace I held 7 years ago in my 20’s, but this time way more sustainably.
Can you run better? Most can. Dr. Halazs and his team will help. 1000%. I swear, … More it’s like one of the best boxing gyms - except for running.
The elderly, the recovering, the amateur, and the elite. It’s all growth here. -
The guys at Run Lab are awesome and helped me overcome chronic IT band Syndrome

Dr Rhoden is amazing! He is knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner! 100% recommend for all your training needs!
