Automatic classification of running styles can enable runners to obtain feedback with the aim of optimizing performance in terms of minimizing energy expenditure, fatigue, and risk of injury. To develop a system capable of classifying running styles using wearables, we collect a dataset from 10 healthy runners performing 8 different pre-defined running styles. Five wearable devices are used to record accelerometer data from different parts of the lower body, namely left and right foot, left and right medial tibia, and lower back. Using the collected dataset, we develop a deep learning solution which consists of a Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short-Term Memory network to first automatically extract effective features, followed by learning temporal relationships. Score-level fusion is used to aggregate the classification results from the different sensors. Experiments show that the proposed model is capable of automatically classifying different running styles in a subject-dependant manner, outperforming several classical machine learning methods (following manual feature extraction) and a convolutional neural network baseline. Moreover, our study finds that subject-independent classification of running styles is considerably more challenging than a subject-dependant scheme, indicating a high level of personalization in such running styles. Finally, we demonstrate that by fine-tuning the model with as few as 5
