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.
