Running Wild: The place to get fit!
Running Wild is more than just an athletic shoe store with lots of running and walking shoes, clothes and accessories. We specialize in fitting every person to the proper shoe and clothing designed for their unique needs. Each customer is given an opportunity to experience our unique fitting process. We’ll analyze your unique biomechanics to determine your degree of pronation. From there we can narrow the shoe selection to a stability, motion-control, or cushioned shoe. We accommodate the competitive runner with the latest in racing flats and spikes. Don’t let us forget the walker as well. We carry a wide selection of shoes in all sizes and widths. If we don’t have the size that you need, we can special order. Our mission is not to just sell you a shoe, but to educate and fit you with what you need for a life of running, walking and fitness.
Both the owners and employees of Running Wild have been running since childhood and the older of us have been running since the late 70′s and early 80′s. In that time, a lot has happened to the running shoe. So much in fact, it takes a true running geek to keep up with all the changes. As the shoe evolved, so did the competition and choices. No longer could one walk into a store and say, “Oh, I like such and such brand,” because the brands and models are always changing. Thus, the birth of Running Wild: The Gulf Coast’s Running and Racing Headquarters.
We strive to learn everything we can about our shoes and to teach our customers all that they are willing to learn. If we don’t have an immediate answer to a question, it is our mission to research until we find the answer. Yes, we do carry Gold Medal shoes of Runner’s World and Running Magazines, but we also know that each person has an individual need. What is great for the masses may not be ideal for you. This is why providing personal service is so important.
In addition to being able to purchase all of your sportswear needs, we are also the headquarters for registering for the Pensacola Runners Association races, informing the public about upcoming races, and sponsoring a running group on Tuesdays and Thursdays that runs 6 miles at 6 a.m. We arrange group-training programs for 5K to marathons, and provide information on ways to recover from your injuries so you can keep up with your fitness goals.
