Potomac River Running is a family-owned, locally based running specialty store with 9 locations in Arlington, Ashburn, Burke, DC, Fairfax, Falls Church, Leesburg, Reston, and Rockville. We opened in the spring of 2003 in Loudoun County with the goal of sharing our passion for an active lifestyle with the community and recently celebrated 10 years in the DC Metro area.
We are honored to have been voted one of the 50 Best Running Stores in America in each of the past eight years, since the award’s inception in 2006. Each year, Competitor magazine and Running Insight® identify the 50 Best Running Stores in America®. It starts with runners nominating their favorite store, then those stores are put through a rigorous evaluation process, which includes mystery shopping to assess customer service, credit ratings from vendors and assessments about local programs and community commitment. The shops ranked among the 50 Best Running Stores in America are the ones that offer exemplary customer service for every type of runner, organize training programs, group runs and local races, and provide knowledge and insights about the latest trends, the newest gear, proper running form and local trails, plus can answer endless questions about racing, training and injury prevention. In other words, it’s a shop that goes out of its way to do everything for local runners, no matter what age, experience or ability. We are very proud of this great accomplishment!
We are grateful for the support we have received in our native Northern Virginia and the greater DC area. We are fortunate to work our passion, and have greatly enjoyed our first decade in business serving the Metro area. We appreciate your trust and support and hope to continue to provide you the best customer experience possible.
