Praise for Run and Become

It was an amazing experience. They took the time to understand my needs and didn’t try to push the most expensive option on me. Maria helped me with my gait analysis, and she was absolutely lovely! The gait analysis is free of charge too and they make you run for real and not just on a treadmill. 100% recommended.

Very nice experience buying my running shoes in person at this shop. I was helped by a very kind and knowledgeable sales person who fetched me lots of different shoes to try and didn't make me feel awkward for not really being much of a 'runner'. They have lots of clothes and accessories too and an interesting vibe and back story.

Another delighted customer. Thank you so much for all your expertise and all that wonderful professionalism and attention to detail. I love my Hoka shoes, another absolutely stunning and perfect fit. Hands down this is the best running shop in the UK. I've been to so many over the years now, but every time, you provide such an excellent service and to be fair, that's pretty rare these days, so well done, keep up the great work, its massively appreciated. Gotta go and hit the tarmac :) Thank you.

Malika was extremely helpful. She is so knowledgeable about running and runners anatomy, and which shoes work best for each type of foot, ankle, and runner. I found the perfect pair of sneakers, thanks Malika!

I was helped by Giselle, who was incredibly knowledgeable and informative. Her extensive expertise in running and footwear, combined with her consultative approach, made for the best experience I've had in a store. Highly recommended!

I visited Run and Become recently and was helped by Svitlana and what a fantastic experience! She was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to understand exactly what I needed. Rather than just pointing me toward one option, she presented a great range of shoes to try, and what really stood out was how she explained the differences between each pair, why they felt different, how they'd perform, and which would be the better choice for me. She made the whole process feel personalised and stress free. Will be coming back.
