About Running Northwest

Running Northwest was established in 2015 with the goal to be the running review authority for runners in the Pacific Northwest. As the years passed, our audience has grown dramatically to include readers all over the world. Every review is designed to provide a candid and no holds barred look at each product. Shoes are run for 50 or more miles before fingers even touch keys. Apparel and gear are taken out in the best and worst conditions. We taste some of the weirdest and trendiest nutrition supplements so you don’t have to. We smear on creams to see if they help with recovery to save you the trouble. Bottom line is, we want to provide a fair and honest review of everything we put out.

Jeremy on Trails
Founder and Chief Reviewer

Running Northwest was founded by Jeremy Krall, who began his foray into running much later in life. He grew up as a team sports kid bouncing between football, baseball, tennis, and more before finally landing on hockey which he took with him through college. Fast forward to some years and several pounds later as years behind a computer desk and cubicle had taken their toll, Jeremy found running, cycling, and inevitably triathlons. His passion for technology spilled over into the shoes, gear, and apparel he was using, and deep-diving into the data became his passion. It turned out others were interested in his work as well and thus, Running Northwest was born.

Jeremy is now a UESCA Certified Running Coach and spends his days on the roads and trails around Portland, Oregon. He has drafted new folks into the ranks of reviewers but still loves getting into it with most products, working with the brands directly, and is most happy just talking running in general.

Growing the Ranks

Our ranks have been growing and continue to grow as we bring in and out varying runners with a wide array of skill levels. We never designed Running Northwest to be just about high performance, but instead wanted to report on things that were highly accessible to all people. Because of that, we continually draft runners of all ages and skill levels to provide their thoughts and insight on a wide variety of products.

The goal of Running Northwest will always be the same, to provide the best reviews possible and remain unbiased and direct in our feedback to the running community.

The updated @newbalance 1080v12 truly feels like a luxury running experience. The knit upper is plush and comfortable, coupled with enough stability support to@keep you in place. The Fresh Foam X midsole provides plenty of cushion. While they lack the responsive feeling of other NB shoes like the Rebel v2 and are a tad heavy, these are an incredibly capable shoe that most will find enjoyable for easy rolling miles.
Beautiful Sunday afternoon run in the new @newbalance SuperComp Pacer. This lightweight (barely 7oz) carbon plated shoe has slightly less cushioning from the Trainer model which makes this a perfect shoe for low mileage racing. Hard to tell how necessary that plate is, but it’s not hurting anything so we’ll take it.
If you are looking for a pretty indestructible daily runner @newbalance 880 for nice slow days then look no further than the latest update. The 880v12 brings an updated look but sticks to a time tested recipe.
The @asics GlideRide 3 is so much better than the 2 in our opinion. The upper update while seemingly minor just fits really well and with FFBast+ in the midsole… plenty of cushion and a nice rolling turnover makes for a nice distance trainer.
The @skechers Razor Excess 2 is a really solid update to what was already a great shoe. The Hyperburst midsole remains one of the best on the market and the addition of a plate on these, makes them even more fun.
Been putting miles on the new @on_running Cloudvista and while it’s billed as a trail shoe, we’d call it more of a hybrid that can handle road, gravel, and hard pack as well. It definitely isn’t as soft as the Cloudmonster (we’d love to see that though) but still has plenty of under foot protection when it gets rough underfoot.
