We had an *xtraordinary xperience* here! Chris was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, patient and knowledgeable. He took his time to understand my needs/issues and helped me find the right shoes to help my pain and plantar fasciatis. I am not a runner and I'll admit I was nervous coming into a high end store expecting to be judged. His attitude and kindness put me at ease instantly and I walked out wearing amazing shoes that were shockingly reasonable considering the quality. I would highly recommend this store for anyone looking for quality shoes and/or trying to take care of their feet/body!

Extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Picked up ALTRA Men's Torin 8 Road Running Shoe. Gate analysis, width and length measurements. Listened to my unique challenges (Obesity, joint pain, swelling) and chose multiple pairs of shoes for me to try. So great I turned around a couple blocks so my wife can get a new pair of running shoes as well. Thank you Xtra Mile!

I came into Xtra Mile Running looking for a pair of Brooks Ghost 17s, and had a fantastic experience thanks to Jay. He was incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and took the time to properly assess the pronation of my ankle to ensure the right fit. Jay offered several shoe options that were similar to what I originally had in mind, each with subtle differences that he clearly explained.

What really stood out was his attention to detail—he even showed me a new lacing technique to improve comfort. He didn’t just stick to one brand or style, but instead gave me a range of choices, including other display models that might suit my needs.

If you’re looking for running shoes and want expert, thoughtful service, I highly recommend checking out Xtra Mile Running. Jay’s help made all the difference.

Came in here yesterday with my bf to find a new pair of shoes for work (and as someone who’s about to begin her runner girl era lol) and had a great customer experience with Chris! Really knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind! Took his time to explain and was very patient as I tried on a bunch of different shoes. Really really glad and grateful to have chanced upon this small business. My bf wants to match my new cleeeeaaaan Brooks Glycerin that Chris recommended so definitely coming back soon (also hopefully to get Topos next LOL) 10/10!!

The best selection for running shoes, active wear and accessories! Friendly and knowledgeable staff who treat you like family. Best locally owned store for all your active wear and running or walking wear!!

Chris really knows running. I went in today and got fitted for running shoes. Chris started with measuring my foot, analyzed my gait, reviewed my running stance, educated on the best shoe that fits running style and stance. He also provided great advice on running and cool down exercises. I couldn't decide on which shoe so I purchased them both. I will definitely be back!

Went in last Tuesday to look at some running shoes. Being new to running I had no idea what I was supposed to be looking for. Jay was so helpful and took the time to try several different types of shoes to see what worked best for me. He also informed me of running groups! We had a wonderful experience!

Went in to buy a pair of running shoes to get into running. Jay was very informative, gave great recommendations based on my needs, and helped me find the best shoes for me.
