    Abstract: In a running analysis system, an information acquirer acquires position information and motion information of a user as a runner, measured at each point of passage in a run by a certain measurement device. A measurement value acquirer acquires measurement values of multiple types of motion analysis indices indicating a running motion state of a user for each certain unit measurement section, based on the position information and the motion information chronologically consecutive. A classification processing unit classifies measurement values in multiple measurement sections for each type of motion analysis indices, using a certain classification method for classification by property. A mode determination unit determines an output mode of a classified measurement value based on comparison with a certain comparison target. An output unit is capable of outputting at least information regarding the classified measurement value, based on the determined output mode.
