VA Runner - Woodbridge

Went here for the packet pickup for the Marine Corps 17.75K race. The packet pickup was extremely efficient and well run. But, the store itself lacked very much merchandise. There as only a couple of racks of clothes. The shoe selection was fairly broad. But, compared to a Road Runner Sports or a Feet First, just not much selection.

As a long time avid runner I am well versed in the type of running shoe I desire but I am open to suggestions. The person tending to me was very sarcastic and rude. He acted as if he were offended because I did not succumb to his recommendation. I tried on several pairs and he was upset and rude. He stated, what? You want to go the full round in the different size? I told him no. Then he proceeded to put away shoes before I was finished. He then said, what do I know, I’ve only been selling shoes for a long time. I wish I would have caught his name but I sure can point him out if I see him again. Regardless, I won’t be going back. Nor would I recommend them to my running group or friends.

Great location with friendly knowledge staff that understand what their customers are looking for and have the experience to know what their customers go through on their running journeys.
