| - I first learn of this place while at Lifetime Fitness, where I met SS employee Flash at an event. He gave me a 10% discount card, and I was considering getting more serious about running, so I thought, "Why not?"
Flash was working that day, and helped me get the correct shoes. He did a video gait analysis (I'm pleased to note that I don't have knock knees or pigeon toes or run like freak). I tried on a series of shoes, each time running up and down the sidewalk outside to determine what felt best. I went with Asics Gel Nimbus, and I can't live without the now. :-) Thanks, Flash.
I have to admit, I was pretty nervous going in--I like exercising but I'm no jock. I feared that I would find myself face-to-face with a bunch of running snobs who would make me feel like an idiot. Happily, I promise you will not have such an experience here.
I recently returned to bring in my stepdaughter, too, who has also decided to take up running. She had a similarly excellent experience, and I am sure that she'll get great use out of her new Mizunos.
Now, if only I had the money to buy my running clothes here, too.
