Orange County-based A Snail's Pace Running Shop is easily the best running enthusiasts resource and store in OC. It’s known for its popular 5-Step fit process for finding the perfect running shoe; and for its running academies, clubs, creative events, and valuable running resources. It’s involved in the community by giving back to local high schools, races, organizations, police departments, and running clubs. Its selection of running shoes and apparel by the best shoe brands available is hard to beat.
If you’re interested in joining their Academy, they’ll help you prepare for upcoming races for all skills and distances. A Snail's Pace also suggests goal races for each member of the academy, based on their location, preferred timing, and running distance. From the Surf City Half Marathon to the Los Angeles Marathon which runs the full 26.2 miles, committing to one of these incredible events keeps the runner on track and motivated to be confidently prepared.
