Potomac River Running is a family-owned, locally based running specialty store with locations in Arlington, Ashburn, Cleveland Park, Falls Church, Leesburg, Reston, Rockville, and Burke.
Running/Walking footwear comes in four basic categories; lightweight, neutral, stability, and motion control. The different categories are designed to best match an individual's needs, based on how the foot strikes the ground when walking or running. It's important to match the shoe to your foot so you can give yourself the best chance of running injury free! During our fitting process, we'll scan your foot with our iStep scanner, peform a Video Gait Analysis during which watch you run or walk on the treadmill, and ask you a series of qualitative questions about your running and injury history. At that point we can fit you in several different brands until you find what feels best.
