👟 MEET THE TEAM
We’re kicking off a new series to introduce you to the people behind Runners Paradise.
First up... Meet Cam! 👋
1) What do you love most about running?
The thing I love most about running is the connection between running mates/training partners, knowing that you’re all working towards a common goal, and are helping each other get there.
2) How many years have you been running?
I have been running since mid 2021, after starting when my other sports had been cancelled due to Covid. At that point it was a struggle to run 2k without stopping.
3) Favourite 3 shoes in your rotation?
Very hard question! At the moment, I would have to say the Nike Vomero Plus, Asics Megablast, and Hoka Cielo X1 3.0.
4) Favourite run of the week? & why?
Has to be the Sunday long run, almost always joined by a few friends, usually in Yarra Flats, one of my favourite spots to run in Melbourne, and a non-negotiable that we go out for coffee afterwards.
5) Running highlight to date?
The 10k at Carmans Fun Run 2025. It was a big PB (over 2 mins) and I ran a really smart race (in part thanks to Stocky for pacing me) to come home very strong in the second half. I closed in a 5k pb! I knew I was fit at the time, but wasn’t quite sure what I was capable of. This one filled me with confidence.
You’ll see Cam in store most days, but here’s hoping you now know a little more about his running life, favourite shoes and what keeps him moving.
Next time you’re in store, say hi to Cam! 👋 Whether you’re chasing a PB, looking for your next pair of runners or just starting out, Cam and the team are always happy to chat all things running.
📍 Come visit us at Runners Paradise, 130 South Parade, Blackburn.
