Visit Bay Area's A Runner's Mind for the Perfect Shoes

Since 2019 I’ve been super impressed with the service and selection at A Runner’s Mind and have been lucky enough to work with the General Manager Eileen in San Francisco and Manager Cindy in Burlingame. Rather than just picking the shoe I think looks the best, they’ve taught me over the years what type of shoe my feet and body need to perform my best and keep me pain and injury free. They use sophisticated assessments to analyze the arches of your feet and video your gait to determine your support needs.

They let you try several different shoe manufacturers and styles and take them for as many test runs outside as you like to decide which ones work best for you in a totally non rushed and fun environment. They clearly know what they are doing and I’m already loving my newest Brooks. If you have never been outfitted for shoes by a pro I highly recommend them whether you’re a casual or competitive runner. There’s a reason A Runner’s Mind has been named one of the best running stores in the country seven years consecutively!
