The testing will involve  running in and evaluating a number of different shoes as well as high speed camera filming. The reason for the testing - make the best fitting, feeling and performing running shoes in the world.

If you have ever wondered how running shoe companies decide to improve their shoes, come on out to Druid Hills High School and see how Mizuno does it. The testing will take approximately 60 minutes and each volunteer will receive the peace of mind that they did their part to improve shoes for all runners, along with a special gift from Mizuno. 

All participants need to be healthy enough to run on a track, on and off for approximately 45 minutes and wear comfortable clothes to run in
