The "Run With Us" grassroots campaign is a mobile running tech lab designed to provide expert analysis and recommendation for runners of all skill levels. It features a grand scale technical van which houses two of Mizuno's state-of-the-art "Precision Fit" terminals. There, consumers are provided an innovative and thorough biomechanical analysis of their foot type and running needs. The "Precision Fit" procedure determines which type of running shoe best suits the runner's foot type, running style, and running goals. Runners are also given a chance to "test ride" Mizuno footwear that has been suggested for their biomechanics. All participants in the "Run With Us" program will receive a free Mizuno Dryscience™ T-Shirt.

"The 'Run With Us' promotion provides a unique and exciting way for runners who may or may not have experienced the Mizuno brand, to do just that. We firmly believe that the comfort, quality, and performance of our running shoes and apparel are second to none, and this is a great way for runners to experience it for themselves." - Fritz Taylor, Vice President and General Manager of the Running Division, Mizuno USA.

By February of 2009, the Run With Us promotion had completed its 150th in-store visit across the continental United States. Due to the popularity of "Run With Us" Mizuno has introduced a second technical van, allowing for promotional stops on both the East and West coast simultaneously throughout the year. "Run With Us" will continue to visit races, expos, schools and universities, and specialty running stores and sporting goods retailers. See below to find out when "Run With Us" is coming to you!
