Up & Running Reviews 

I went to the shop at milton keynes to get my first set of shoes to begin running. Marine, gave me a gate test and recommended what kind of shoes would help my incorrect foot placements. She then showed me different options and even found me a great pair of running shoes in black. I just finished my first session of running and I have no knee pain.

Thank you so much.

Visited Up & Running in Cambridge today to get my daughter some new road running shoes. Looked after by Jake who did a great job. He was totally across his brief, excellent product knowledge and obvious running experience. We could not have been looked after any better. Left with a great pair of new shoes and have found a store we will return to time and again. Thanks again Jake.

Lucy in the Nottingham branch was incredibly helpful, after using the gait analysis helped me find a very comfortable pair of running shoes for my next half marathon.

The dpd courier service is pathetic. Ordered shoes on 26/7/26 and till date parcel not received.

I visited the York store today and was given excellent help and advice by Barbara and Mark. I have post surgery chronic foot problems and their advice was invaluable.
I was seeking a trainer with a very roomy toe box and with their help, I have bought a pair of Altra Womens Lone Peak 9 Goretex shoes.
Thank you so much

Effortless process to purchase a gift card. Would use again.

Richard served me. He was patient, knowledgeable and polite. He got me to try a few pairs of shoes before I settled on two pairs! I only came in for a replacement of my current shoe! The service was excellent and would return for more shoes.

Sally-Ann was lovely today - really friendly and great knowledge made me feel really comfortable about coming in and starting running again. It was very busy but she wasn’t rushing me or pushing any sale - thank you

Need a new pair of running shoes, good choice and expert advice, didn’t feel like they were trying to sell the more expensive, more focused on what was right.

All I need to say is if you’re in the Milton Keynes area see Jess. My goodness she knows her stuff! My fitting consisted of 8 pairs of shoes, she took me through every technical detail - support, cushioning, weight, mid sole and front sole materials to name a few. So patient, listens to feedback and makes her next selection on that. This is my 3rd fitting at this store and will never go anywhere else. Head office - give this employee some kind of recognition. She is an absolute credit to your business and wonderful human. Thank you so much Jess. Really excited to use my new brooks trainers and carry on training for the Manchester Marathon in April.

Staff were incredibly informative, patient and friendly.

They measured my gait and allowed me to try on a wide range of shoes to find the one which suited me.

Popped in on the advice of a friend and now i know why they highly recommended Up & Running Shrewsbury.

I’m not a runner but wanted advice on some foot ware for walking and using on a treadmill. Superb service from very knowledgable staff, nothing was too much trouble and I came away with a super comfortable pair of running shoes. That’s it really they deliver exactly what they advertise, I’m off for a power walk.

I am very happy with the service received. I ordered trainers on Thursday evening and they arrived Saturday using standard delivery.

Max at the Sheffield store was extremely patient and helpful. Guided me to a potential great shoe but didn’t have in stock. Trying other up and running stores for the size.

Thanks very much Max :)

Barnet Branch:
Staff were incredibly knowledgeable,I got to try on multiple different shoes, try them on their treadmill until I found the ones that’s best suited me.

Rob was great, very knowledgeable and no pressure to buy the more expensive trainers, really just wanted to get the best ones, spent about 45 minutes going over them all and was great.

Excellent, knowledgeable and courteous service from Richard at the Milton Keynes store.

Staff were really helpful. I needed anti pronator shoes for everyday wear, and I'm not at all a runner. I was shown plenty of options and given lots of time and assistance to decide which were right for me. There's two treadmills which you can try walking/running on where they can film you so you can see how you walk in them. Overall great experience and love my new shoes.

Rob was amazing! Went above and beyond making sure I got the ones that fit best. Even though I was quite particular with wanting a certain colour rob was very patient and gave me many options. I must’ve tried on 10/12 pairs. Very happy with the customer service received from rob and can confirm the trainers have been great! Thank you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
