Please support this great local race.

All good things must come to an end... And Run Upcote ends 1 month today! 🙃
After 5 challenging years this will be the last edition of the Run Upcote Autumn Trail. Financial challenges, personal changes and later entries all combine to make it more risky and less fun to put races on. RU was never about profit (which is lucky!) and always about fun; fun to run but also fun to plan and deliver. Now it isn't fun, so it's time to end.
I really hope we see more entries for this final opportunity to come together in a magical rural location and enjoy a morning of socialising and a bit of a run one last time.
Entry link: www.runupcote.co.uk
Maybe I'll see you on the farm?

SPRING INTO ACTION🌞🌸

Embrace the sunny spring vibes and hit the pavement or trails! 🌞🏃‍♂️

The change in weather means a change in kit, but we have you covered in all areas but your SPF. Check out our Spring Running accessory edit to spring into action.

Here are a few tips to make the most of your run in this gorgeous weather:

Hydrate: Start drinking water an hour before your run to stay refreshed.

Sunscreen: Protect your skin with SPF, even on cloudy days.

Dress Light: Opt for moisture-wicking fabrics to keep cool. (Check out our range of Pressio clothing)

Timing: Run early morning or late evening to avoid peak sun.

Let's spring into action and make those miles count! 🏅🌸

Our Story

Back in 1992 Gillian, a running enthusiast embarked in a modest way with our first small running shop in Harrogate. The formula was, and still is, simple yet effective:

Provide second-to-none customer service for the running and fitness community, and be better than your competition.

Since then the company has gone from strength to strength; and now we have shops all across the country, including a successful franchise network, and a thriving web sales operation.

Voted by runners of the UK as the best national retailer 2019, 2018, and 2017 at the Running Awards.
