Hi, I'm Thomas F. White, and my running journey spans over two decades, evolving from competitive marathon running to becoming an expert in running gear technology. After completing 18 marathons, including six World Marathon Majors, and earning my certification in running biomechanics, I discovered my passion for helping runners find the perfect gear match for their unique running style and goals. At SportyCritique, I put running shoes and gear through rigorous real-world testing across different terrains, weather conditions, and running styles. My background in podiatric studies combined with extensive racing experience allows me to analyze equipment from both a technical and practical perspective. Each review incorporates data from hundreds of miles of testing, considering factors like gait analysis, energy return, and long-term durability. Beyond my writing and testing work, I operate a specialized running clinic where I conduct detailed gait analyses and help runners optimize their gear choices. My approach combines scientific testing methods with practical experience, ensuring that my recommendations account for individual biomechanics and running goals. Through my articles, I aim to help runners of all levels understand how their gear choices impact their performance, comfort, and injury prevention.
