Our Mission is to Reveal the Truth About Your Running Form
Aletheia Run is dedicated to enhancing the human experience by uncovering the dynamic forces that shape movement and existence. Through the innovation of Force Portraits, we reveal the intricate interplay between the body and its environment. Rooted in the meaning of ‘Aletheia’ — unconcealedness, disclosure, and truth — our mission is to bring deeper insight and understanding to every runner’s journey.
Who is Aletheia Run?
We are a team of scientists, engineers, and runners aimed at empowering the running community with the tools needed to achieve their personal goals, avoid injury, and pursue a lifelong love for running.
Born in Track Town, USA
It started as an idea in our clinic, where we use data-driven tools to help athletes of all levels recover from injuries and enhance their performance.
Based in Eugene, Oregon, the running capital of the world, our team was inspired by the city’s elite athletes and vibrant running culture to develop a groundbreaking metric designed specifically for runners.
The Brain Child of Three Scientists
Aletheia Run was founded by Sean Roach, DPT, PhD, a specialist in Orthopedic and Sports Science, who serves as our CEO. He is joined by Richard Taylor, DSc, PhD, our Science Director and a pioneer in fractal analysis, and Cooper Boydston, BS, our Chief Science Officer.
Together, they combined years of clinical experience analyzing runner biomechanics with the applied theory of fractal analysis. From this expertise, Force Portraits were born, a revolutionary way to understand and optimize running performance.

Over a Decade of Clinical Study
Our clinicians began using the tool to help inform patients how to improve specific running problems invisible to the naked eye.
Now, after more than 10 years of research & development driven by a passionate team of engineers, developers, artists, and pro-runners, we are ready to change the way you view your running.
Pre vs. Post Treatment
Examine the before and after visuals of the Force Portrait. Notice how the post-treatment Force Portrait
appears significantly more symmetrical, indicating potentially more efficient movement.
