This is not your average store!
Our goal is not to merely sell you shoes or a new running jacket ... we want to help change your life!
We will FIT you for the correct pair of shoes based on your biomechanics. We will introduce you to insoles and the benefits of wearing non-cotton socks. We will FIT you for a sports bra and make sure that you are wearing the correct size. We will teach you about nutrition and the importance of staying hydrated. We understand your aches and pains and we can help you manage them. Education is the number one "product" we offer and we are eager to help you reach your fitness goals. In addition to the products we sell, we have training programs all year round so whether you want to begin walking or running, improve your consistency in training, or just make friends, we are here to help.
Fleet Feet Sports is locally owned and operated. ... and our goal is to inspire you!
Have a great time running, swimming and riding this Month.
