A little late but better than never - but we are giving a massive Front Runner round of love and thanks today🫰

After 10 amazing years with Front Runner Athletics, Wendy is heading into a new adventure!

If you’ve been around our store for any amount of time, chances are you’ve met Wendy, learned from Wendy, or maybe even had her help you find exactly what you needed (especially if you were a swimmer!). 🏊‍♀️

Her knowledge as our swim specialist has been unmatched and her dedication to our customers and our team has helped shape who we are today.

Over the last decade, Wendy has brought expertise, laughter and friendship and we’re so excited for whatever comes next for you (even though we’re a little selfish and wish you weren’t leaving us!).

Thank you for 10 years of hard work, loyalty, and for helping make our team the amazing crew it is today.

Please join us in wishing Wendy the very best in her next chapter. And remember once you’re part of the Front Runner family, you’re always part of the Front Runner family ❤️

You are always our priority but between customers, you'll find us gathered around the screen cheering, celebrating, and probably overreacting to every close call.

Don't worry - we'll still get you in the perfect pair of shoes. We just might ask you for the score first. 😅

👟 Meet the NEW HOKA Clifton Pro

If you've ever wished your daily running shoe felt just a little faster without giving up the comfort you love, the Clifton Pro might be your new favorite.

Think of it as the best of both worlds:

☁️ Soft, plush cushioning to keep your legs feeling fresher.

⚡ A more responsive ride that helps you roll through every step.

🏃 Perfect for everything from easy neighborhood miles to long training runs and even picking up the pace when you're feeling good.

Stop by Front Runner Athletics for a personalized shoe fitting, and we'll help you find the perfect fit for your stride.
