(227)

We pride our expert service on you… and your feet! We carry a large selection of walking and running shoes, running apparel, energy supplements and other running focused accessories. Our friendly staff provides a GAIT analysis with our 6 step fitting process to ensure you receive the best shoes for your running needs. We opened this family-owned store to help share our love for running and help others to achieve their fitness goals. We are passionate about running and offer free group runs out of the store on Tuesday (6 PM), Thursday (6 PM) and Saturday (7 AM). We help the beginning runner with Walk to Run programs and the advanced runner by providing advanced training programs. We are an official CARA (Chicago Area Runners Association) training site and help to support the local running community. Stop by the store and drop off your old running shoes. We donate used shoes to the charity “Share your Soles." We are owned by Beverly - an avid runner . Our vision for the store is to help advance others in their personal fitness goals and share our passion for running. Come visit us! Running Excels Beverly

ALL NEW:
Get set for the smoothest Clifton yet. Unleashing PROGLIDE™+ series technologies in our tried-and-true trainer, this next-gen remake takes what we love about the ultra-cushioned runner and pushes performance to the max. Sublimely smooth and exceptionally resilient, the Clifton PRO optimizes your daily miles with a more aggressive rocker profile, more lively underfoot ride, and more great cushioning.
