James and Rona Spring, from Queensland, Australia, visited Oahu recently to participate in the 4th Annual Hibiscus Half Marathon, on June 6th, 2010.

Avid Phiten users, they stopped by the Phiten Hawaii Shop before their run to see our new products and find something to help with their different ailments. Rona Spring had actually broken her ankle just 8 weeks earlier, and needed to find something to help her get through the race. Our staff recommended the Titanium Support Compression Wrap, which can be used to support the ankle area. When they came back to the store after their run, here is what Rona had to say:

“Your products helped me to finish second in my age bracket! I couldn’t have made it through without your compression wrap on my ankle. Ever since I broke it 8 weeks ago, it has been swollen and its been tough for me to put a lot of weight on it. The compression wrap was perfect, since it provided the support I needed while also taking some of the pain away and getting rid of the swelling. I was able to finish well ahead of folks half my age!”

Congratulations Rona Spring! Here in the Phiten Hawaii Shop, we are proud to have been able to help you medal! Keep up the running, and we are happy to help you in all of your races!
