Best shoe shopping experience. Molly helped me and she was very knowledgeable regarding the shoes. Best fit I’ve had in a pair of shoes. I won’t buy running shoes anywhere else.

Running Central is the epitome of a perfect running store. They carry shoes, clothes, gear, and accessories that are essential for runners. They have a wide selection, of larger brands such as nike and new balance. They also support smaller brands. My only complaint is that it is very expensive. Even the clearance section is pricey. However, the staff is really friendly and is eager to help you if you have any questions. I am confident that they are knowledgeable and treat everyone the same. The customer service definitely makes the store special.

Amazing shoe fitting service, very knowledgeable people, undertook my concerns. Suggested some shoes for my requirements. They even order for free, different sizes or anything you want. It takes 2 to 3 weeks time though. That’s a lot. But it’s worth the service they provide. If u have any kind of issue with your running or workout shoes/leg. This is a must visit place. Before shedding money on doctor visits.

Great to support local business. Decent selection of running shoes. Well trained staff. Only issue I have is the gift card system. With all the money poured into this great location, it has the absolute worst gift card tracking system. Time to bring the technology to 2015 instead of hand written 80’s receipts.

Running central is not a shoe store. It is the hub of central Illinois for athletes of all levels and ages. What I think makes this place shine is the people who work there. An employee, Jamie, spent over an hour an a half helping my wife and I find the perfect shoes and accessories. We had our feet«mapped», measured and our running form was observed to help pick the perfect shoes. If you don’t mind spending some money, this is the place to go if you want professional help picking the perfect shoes for you. As an added measure, the staff prides themselves on the fact they make no commission on sales.

I wanted to love this store. It is beautiful, nicely merchandised, and on the waterfront. The staff of attractive sportive types are super friendly. Every single shoe I tried on: didn’t have my size. I wear 8.5 in running shoes which is pretty common. And, they were out of Newtons(shipment coming they said). I drove an hour to this store since their website said they carried Newtons. So I was pretty disappointed. So I looked for running shorts. I wear a medium. Do you think they had the ones I want in size medium? Unfortunately, they were out of mediums. It’s too bad. I wanted to fall in love here but they lost me for lack of inventory.

I have never really been to a specialty store like this but man was I impressed. I finally broke down and decided to invest in some good shoes for running and someone suggested this place to me. Even though one guy had to work with two customers at once, I still felt well taken care of. He explained to me how I run, why my feet hurt, and why he was choosing the shoes he was for me. I never felt rushed or pressured to buy. In the end I got a great pair of shoes and my feet feel ten times better! Worth the time and money to get fitted for a shoe. I would def suggest this place for anyone with specific foot problems(think plantar fasciitis).

Very friendly staff. Much better than just going to a random shoe store and choosing by appearance. Most shoes are still cute and better suited to the individual.

This place is fantastic! The employees are all really helpful and knowledgeable. I came in for new shoes and walked out with a MUCH better understanding of my feet and what they need. I definitely recommend Running Central to walkers and runners alike. Thanks guys!
