Under Armour Unveils an Update of the Speedform Gemini Smart Shoe
Wear it to run long (neutral) - The latest iteration in the Gemini family, this shoe includes a knit midfoot panel support for great lockdown, UA SpeedForm construction for a precision fit and Charged Cushioning® for improved responsiveness and durability.
MapMyRun exclusively powers the new line of connected footwear with a new performance feature called the Jump Test, which scientifically measures and elevates the awareness of an athlete's muscular fatigue level. Once connected to MapMyRun, the technology embedded in the shoes will measure and average the air time of a sequence of jumps as an indicator of muscle fatigue. This mechanism helps track an athlete's recovery status over time and provides immediate guidance on how to alter the intensity of a workout. The new MapMyRun experience also includes a runner's dashboard, performance scorecard, and gear snapshot with the shoe's total mileage, steps, and average cadence while training.
"We are taking a scientific approach to recovery that is directly utilizing real-time data from your body to determine what level of workout you should execute to guide your training," said Mike Lee, Chief Digital Officer at Under Armour. "We know one of the biggest problems runners face is pushing through pain and fatigue, leading to injury. The Jump Test in MapMyRun is a critical first step for runners and will help avoid the 'training hangover' many athletes face by giving them awareness into their ability to perform."
