I am John Charles, the Running Podiatrist. I have a huge passion for running and how it can help your physical and mental health. I use my skills and knowledge as a Podiatrist to help others improve their lower limb health and achieve their running and physical health goals.

​

I discovered running at the age of 19 when my dad entered me and my brother in the Nike Run London 10k event through the lush surroundings of Richmond Park. I haven’t looked back since and have taken part in some amazing events including the London and Melbourne Marathons, Ironman Australia and New Zealand (with a swim and bike first!), competed for clubs and universities at national and county championships, met many inspirational people and running as allowed me to do this!

​

I worked for the London Marathon Running Store for 8 years and my interest in runners and running led me to becoming a Podiatrist. I currently work at a bespoke Podiatry Clinic in Toorak, am a member of the Kaizen Triathlon Academy and am closely involved with a number of local running groups.

​

I love working with runners and believe that everyone should have the opportunity and tools to enable them to run pain-free and with enjoyment. I use detailed assessment, treatment and programs to help you achieve your running goals.​
