Since KICKR RUN was first unveiled in January 2024, demand and excitement has been building fast.  Wahoo opened early registration, allowing runners to place a fully refundable deposit to secure the first editions, which are now being delivered to Wahooligans across the USA.

Key features of KICKR RUN include:

  • RunFree Mode: Harnessing advanced position sensing technology, the treadmill dynamically adjusts the belt speed to match your stride in near real-time, allowing you to run hands-free and maintain a natural running form as your pace changes.
  • Automatic Grade Control: Experience up to a 15% incline and a 3% decline, automatically adjusting when connected to compatible apps, mirroring the rolling hills of your favourite routes.
  • Target Pace Control: Train at the exact pace your workout prescribes with the quick touch of the speed control paddle, to acknowledge the change in pace.
  • Responsive Surface and Lateral Tilt: Mimics the feel of running outdoors with a responsive surface for natural energy return and lateral tilting up to 1.5 degrees, challenging your running muscles as if on outdoor terrain.
  • Elite Speed Capabilities: Achieve your personal best with a maximum pace of a 4 minute-mile pace, enabling even the fastest runners to train at competitive paces.
  • Exceptionally Quiet: even at a 4 minute-mile pace, KICKR RUN is exceptionally quiet to use.
  • Smart Connectivity: Integrates seamlessly with the Wahoo App and Zwift Run plus Final Surge, Kinomap, Humango and Training Peaks with many more to follow for a dynamic and interactive training session, with full connectivity including WiFi, Bluetooth, and DirectConnect.

KICKR RUN is professionally delivered, assembled and installed by a premium service provider at the customer’s preferred location.

Chip Hawkins, Founder of Wahoo Fitness, commented: “I am delighted that KICKR RUN will soon be landing in customers homes and training spaces over the coming weeks. I’ve been a runner for many years and have used a treadmill as a tool when required, but I never really enjoyed it or achieved the training gains I required. So I have been working behind the scenes with a very talented group of Wahooligans developing KICKR RUN for over 7 years to transform indoor running. As passionate runners we wanted to create the most realistic experience and create a tool that helps our customers improve, become better athletes and achieve their goals.”

Gareth Joyce, CEO of Wahoo Fitness, commented: “The launch represents an exciting new chapter for Wahoo Fitness, as we expand into the running category. KICKR RUN diversifies our product offering, reaching a new audience and we are developing new relationships with partners in the running community. We’re excited to continue innovating to help all athletes reach their full potential.”

Discover the true potential of your run with the KICKR RUN Smart Treadmill, where every run is a true reflection of you. 

KICKR RUN is planned to launch in 2025 in Germany and the UK.
