Meet our staff

 


Michael, proprietor of Belfast and Newry stores, runs with North Down AC and helped founded the ever growing Up & Runners. 2011 has seen Michael run the Belfast City marathon as part of BBC tv's Going The Distance programme. The year has also seen debuts in triathlon and in the inaugural Gaelforce North Adventure race in Donegal.

Catriona, spends time in both stores trying to help keep things running smoothly. Another proud Lagan Valley runner who has also been a bit quiet on the racing front recently but hoping to get back into the swing of it in the not too distant future.

Sara combines working in the shop with running her own sports massage business (see details below). She does most of her own exercise 'off-shore' as she is a competent rower and can be found out on the Lagan most weekends, come rain, hail or shine.

Brendan never seems to rest. Having spent the last while working on his Masters, he has also been relentlessly training and racing, along with a little bit of coaching at Newry AC. And this is on top of sharing his considerable running-related knowledge while working in store.

Cathy, our youngest staff member, is the latest to join the ranks of the university crowd, though unlike many of the other staff she has opted for QUB (Queen's). Although Cathy enjoys running, she has so far displayed most talent on the camogie field and so helps keep our Newry store diverse in its sporting boasts.

Sinead has been out of action for a while but hoping for a return to form soon. Sinead enjoys the outdoors in all its guises and likes to take her darling dog Jess for a good hike around Big Wood or indeed anywhere with a bit of mud! There is talk of a wee go at triathlon again next year, along with Catriona.

Gait Analysis

 


It's important that your running shoes fit correctly: our trained staff can help find the right shoes for you: in a short session on our treadmill they can do a video gait analysis using sophisticated Dartfish software.

Find out more about gait analysis at UP & RUNNING.

NB if you would like to enjoy the full benefits of our gait analysis system and shoe-fitting service, please arrive at least half an hour before shop closing time.

Thanks!
