The Running Elements

"After walking out of other stores in the area due to a lack of customer service this place hey welcomed discovery. The emphasis seems to be on finding me the best shoe for my needs. I was quite pleased with this store."

"Sophia was extremely knowledgeable. Asking questions and finding the right sneaker for me. Sleepers, that what they feel like."

"Second bad experience with this store, and now done. First time a few months back I asked for a stride evaluation as I had them for years at Spikes, and was told at an event they specialize in stride analysis. Yeah, no. Walked out after a young man looked at my shoes and went and got 4 boxes of runners to try. When I asked if I was getting a stride analysis, I was told he knew what I needed just from looking at my shoes. I walked out. Came back to give it a second chance as my husband wanted to try some Hokas. Walked in to a store with one customer being attended to. Was greeted and told someone would be with us shortly. Waited 15 minutes, then another customer came in, cut in line and was taken care of. Not cool. Miss Spikes."

"I went in today 8/20. I found out recently that I have Spinal Stenosis.I’ve always been kinda anxious about the whole trying on shoes and not knowing what I need. Sophia was amazing! She was extremely kind, knowledgeable and professional. I ended up finding a great pair of Hoka’s that make me feel like I’m walking on air! Thanks to her patience and the time she took to really grasp what I needed. She took what could have been an embarrassing experience for me and turned it into a positive one. Thank you, Sophia."

"The best thing about this place is it’s staff. I never once went to a running store and had my running analyzed. Sarah I believe is her name helped me and was very knowledgeable. I kid you not she almost finished my sentences when I was asking about a certain shoe. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just starting out I highly recommend coming to the Running Elements. You will be surprised of how much you didn’t know about running and how you could improve with just the change of a shoe. Ask for Sarah she’s great and knowledgeable. And you never feel rushed or pressured to buy. I think I may have tried on 7 different pairs of shoes while I was there and not once did I feel I was taking too much of the staffs time."
