Stigmare Growth Architecture & Marketing Signs InjuryProof Running as Newest Client

Irving, United States – June 28, 2026 / Stigmare, Inc. /

Stigmare Growth Architecture & Marketing, a Las Colinas-based brand strategy and digital growth consultancy, announced today that it has signed InjuryProof Running, a Plano, Texas, running coaching and injury prevention practice founded by certified running coach and personal trainer Philip Foster, as a new client. The engagement begins June 2026.

InjuryProof Running offers in-person personal training, gait analysis, and online coaching to runners and athletes in the Plano, Texas, area and across the country. The practice operates from Evo Gyms at 6505 West Park Blvd, Plano, Texas 75093, and holds a 5.0-star rating on Google with seven verified client reviews as of June 2026. Stigmare’s engagement begins with a comprehensive 30-day digital infrastructure build targeting Google Business Profile optimization, citation correction across more than 50 directories, AI-powered lead response, and an automated client nurture system spanning email and SMS.

“InjuryProof Running has exactly what serious local service businesses need to scale: a credible practitioner, a differentiated methodology, and real client outcomes,” said Steven Paul Matsumoto, Founder and Chief Strategist of Stigmare Growth Architecture & Marketing. “Philip’s background in kinesiology and his certifications as a UESCA Running Coach, ACE Personal Trainer, and Precision Nutrition Coach give us a strong authority foundation to build on. Our job is to make sure the runners in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro who need this service can find it, trust it, and act on it.”

Injury prevention is an expanding category within the fitness and endurance coaching market. Studies indicate that between 37% and 56% of recreational runners sustain at least one injury per year, creating sustained demand for specialized coaching that addresses movement mechanics and structural resilience rather than mileage alone. InjuryProof Running’s ground-up approach — building stability through foot, ankle, and functional movement work before adding training volume — positions the practice within a growing segment of performance-focused injury prevention services serving runners from 5K competitors to ultramarathon athletes.

“I was drawn to Stigmare’s proposal because it laid out clear expectations and a structured path forward,” said Philip Foster, Owner and Trainer at InjuryProof Running. “For a coaching practice built around long-term results, working with a team that thinks the same way about marketing made sense. I’m looking forward to building on the foundation we’ve already established and reaching more runners who need this kind of support.”
