Cavalcade of Curiosities

What happens when you mix a bus, a mobile gait analysis system and an Arcade of Oddities? You get a new and improved Cavalcade of Curiosities! Find us on the road as we tour the US for prizes and fun.

We will be making stops at Rock ‘N’ Roll Marathons and running shops across the nation.The Brooks Cavalcade of Curiosities offers free running gait analysis (now with iPads and digital analysis), an Arcade of Oddities “museum” displaying running wonders from around the world, along with contests and Run Happy prizes.

    I was able to experience the cavalcade at the DC armory last week, and had a blast. My friends and I really enjoyed everything you offered, and we were super excited to be able to have our gaits analyzed. The staff was extremely friendly and helped us to understand what kind of support we needed in a sneaker as runners. My next sneaker will definitely be Brooks. Thank you again for providing the great services, and keep up the great work.
