Brooks Run Research Collective initiatives are opportunities to participate in running research where your experience fuels research and development. Each initiative is aligned with our Run Signature philosophy to ultimately create the best products for runners.

How often are new initiatives available?

New initiatives become available throughout the year, depending on ongoing research needs. You may receive an email when new initiatives are available, and you can check the Initiatives section on the Brooks Run Research Collective Dashboard for current opportunities.

Do I have to join initiatives?

No. Participation is optional, and you decide which opportunities to participate in.

What does participation in initiatives involve?

It depends on the research objective and will likely include your feedback via surveys in addition to your wearable device data. Some initiatives will require frequent input over time, while others may be one-time only.

What do I receive for participating in initiatives?

By participating in initiatives, you are helping to shape the future of running and running technology, enabling us to create innovative products that truly address runners’ individual needs.
