Trusted & Rated 5 Stars by Denver Runners:

  • Coach Travis has been awesome for my training - adaptable, open to my ideas, and available to field random questions. The fact Travis is also a PT was invaluable when I got dinged up. Thanks for helping me achieve this lifelong running bucket list item! #BQ

    Ben W., Littleton, CO

  • Travis is extremely knowledgeable and an expert when it comes to running. He identified different movement faults and gave me an actionable plan to improve them. He retrained my running form and I haven’t had pain with running since my 1st visit.

    Paul P., Edgewater, CO

  • I ran 3:11 at the California International Marathon in Sacramento yesterday, which was a 6 minute PR for me. Thanks for all the help along the way! Getting past the hamstring issues was what let me get this training block started!

    Mike C., Littleton, CO

  • Travis is the best! He identified 2 issues right away and provided simple solutions. I have increased my speed and my pain has subsided!

    Holly M., Denver, CO

  • Travis is fantastic to work with, would highly recommend! He helped me recover from a persistent injury to get back into marathon training.

RUNNING REHAB, BY A RUNNER

Dr. Travis Downen, PT, DPT | Former Division 1 Runner

Travis understands that getting back to everyday activities isn't the same as getting back to running. Stride combines running-specific rehabilitation, strength, and training principles to help runners stay active when possible and return to the mileage, workouts, and races that matter to them.

Common Questions

  • Yes. Stride is built specifically around runners, from beginners to competitive athletes. Treatment is designed around the demands of running rather than simply getting you back to everyday activities.

  • Often, yes. The goal isn't to automatically stop running. We'll determine what you can safely tolerate and, when appropriate, establish running guidelines during your evaluation.

  • Stride is mobile. Visits can take place at your home, office, gym, or another appropriate location throughout the Denver metro area.

  • No. Colorado allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can schedule an evaluation with Stride without a physician referral.
