Up & Running, Big enough to cope, Small enough to care

Back in 1989 Gillian, a running enthusiast, embarked in a modest way with our first small running shop in Harrogate. The formula was, and still is, simple yet effective:

• provide second-to-none customer service for the running and fitness community, and
• be better than your competition.

Since then the company has gone from strength to strength; and now we have shops all across the country, including a successful franchise network, and a thriving web sales operation.
