About Us
Gotta Run Running Shop is Arlington’s first specialty running store. Conveniently located in the Pentagon Row shopping center, Gotta Run is more than a retail store that sells running shoes, apparel, and merchandise. Gotta Run is a full service specialty running shop. Our staff of experienced runners provides impeccable customer service, advice, and information on equipment, injury, and the local running community.
The staff at Gotta Run Running Shop has over 15 years of combined experienced in the specialty running market and are considered experts in their field. The staff at Gotta Run have the experience, know how, and access to the equipment to make your running and walking experience better and more fulfilling.
At Gotta Run Running Shop our job is to fit the customer with the proper shoe based on their foot type and individual needs. Our goal is to educate the customer while giving a full gait analysis to prevent injury and to insure a proper fit.
WHAT WE DO
We will first, watch you run or walk to determine which category of shoe you will fall into. After discussing your goals, needs, and history of fitness, we will match the shape of your foot with the shape of the shoe. At this point you’ll be offered several shoes to try and to compare. There is no such thing as the best shoe. We fit based on your foot shape, gait, and fitness needs. Just because your friend wears a shoe and swears by it, there is no guarantee that particular shoe will fit you. Each shoe will have its very own distinct shapes and fit, and through our experience, we will match the right shoe to your foot.
