We’ve been open 5 years–to the day!!  October 2nd, 2012 we started small: 7 Shoe brands and only 10 or 11 trail models on the wall.  Now we have 12 Shoe Brands and nearly 40 different trail models and a host of road running models.

Thanks to all the customers over the years who have made our business a success!  Special thanks to: my family, Glenn Tachiyama, Rainshadow Running, Seattle Running Club, Northwest Trail Runs, Evergreen Trail Runs, Seattle Green Lake Running Group, Seattle Mountain Running Group, Team 7hills, and The Ginger Runner.

We’ve also grown pretty accumstomed to doing Top7 lists, so here are our Top7Trail shoes from the past 5 years:
