Max at the Sheffield store
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
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
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.
Very helpful staff
Excellent
Excellent, knowledgeable and courteous service from Richard at the Milton Keynes store.
Amazing staff, helped me find perfect anti pronator shoes
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.
Look no further ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very good customer service
Very good customer service, fantastic in store and over the phone when I ordered the wrong size. Shoes delivered quickly and as described. Fantastic to have this company on the high street.

Excellent advise and service from Luke today. As disabled person with MS I was skeptical that a trainer could make a difference to my stability, balance and walking ability! I was wrong! Luke understood my needs & weakness in walking and steered me straight to the Brooks Ghost 18 - perfect in everyway. Thank you so much
Top quality service
Service provided by Sallyann was phenomenal, entered unsure whether my shoes were right and left with a comfy pair that suit my gait. Thank you!
Range of shoes offered for a size 11 was great

Fantastic experience
Ordering from Up & Running was quick and straightforward, with a simple and easy-to-use website. My Brooks trainers arrived promptly, and the delivery was excellent. The trainers are fantastic and comfortable, great quality, and exactly what I was looking for. A smooth shopping experience from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to order from Up & Running again.
