Mandy has run mainly for fitness since school but really enjoys doing local races throughout the year ("I am definately a 'middle of the packer'!"). The running side of things also helps keep up the stamina she needs for her main Martial Art sport of 'Aegis' Kickboxing in which she is a first degree black belt!

Ross runs for Pontefract AC, and has worked for Up & Running for 6 years. His favourite race is the Leeds Abbey Dash, and he has competed at English Nationals for West Yorkshire and is ranked in the top 100 for Great Britain at 800m and 1500m. His PB's are 800m 2.07.1, 400m 55.5, 1500m 4.16.1, 10km 34.40, half marathon 1.23.08. He probably has the biggest collection of trainers in West Yorkshire!

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!
