TrySports is a great store for any level athlete from beginner to advanced. When I first started running I met a running group outside of TrySports on the weekends to train for a 10K. As I became more serious about running I became a loyal customer for clothes and equipment. The staff is always helpful and friendly, and I love sharing my new goals with them as they are always excited and supportive. As any local sports store they are more pricey than your typical chain store options for athletic clothes and running shoes, but you will have experts helping you fit for the right shoes and share their advice about equipment. To me that is well worth the extra cost.
