I've been getting my shoes from Mile 26 ever since it opened. The owner, Josh is great and well known in the Ventura county running community. I took a hiatus/break from running but recently took it back up. I knew I used to pronate and have a tendency to heel strike which would irk my knees, so the sales rep analyzed my walking and recommended me various types of shoes + provided explanations for the rec's. She was a runner herself and was very nice and knowledgeable. They didn't have my specific size in stock but no worries, they were able to get in the order and had several color selections. Pricing is solid because I know these shoes are gonna last. Excited to get back into it!

Busy place but staff well informed and flexible. Good selection of shoes, shirts and other pride for runners. I'm a walker but a good running shoe is the best for that too. Strongly recommend.

First time in the shop and Ruth helped me. She was great ?. I bought 2 pairs of running shoes. I was so impressed with their customer service, I brought my husband in 2 days later and Maddie or Addie ? (I think that was her name) and another young man who's a college student at Ventura College both helped my husband. He also bought 2 pairs of shoes. Thank you for having such knowledgeable, kind, and patient staff there. We'll be back!

I got help finding running shoes in a no-nonsense fashion. The lady that helped me was very clinical and knew what she was doing. Thank you, Mile 26!

Thank you "Mile 26" for being Great! Thanks Josh for the incredible service in getting me the specialty racing and training shoes I want and need. It's great to have this level of service and always great when a running shoe store has 'actual runners' working, folks who know their stuff, run in the shoes they sell, and give good advice. I also like the fact that no one there tries to sell me anything I don't need or want. I cannot say enough good things about Mile 26. Also, thanks so much for sponsoring youth track and cross country races. You guys are a cut above and go well beyond the call of duty!

I've been a long time shopper at this store. I've made it a point to buy local and support our running community even when I can find the same shoes cheaper online. I recently bought some shoes that ended up having a manufacturer's defect. When I came to the store they told me that they could not help me because I had bought the shoes over a month ago. They told me to reach out to the shoe brand myself and deal with them. When I asked if they could help they told me they would not. While I understand the stores return policy it would have been nice if they had helped me with the process rather than shrug their shoulders and tell me to handle it myself. I could have saved money by shopping online and I would be have gotten better service if I had purchased at REI, which is where I will be buying my running shoes going forward.

Great service and environment, but they lacked variety in sizing and color options.

They did a free foot analysis and helped me pick out my running shoes. Super friendly and knowledgable staff. I highly recommend this place.

My feet have been hurting for a week and I found Mile 26 online only because I was looking for a store that could match my feet with the right shoes. Mile 26 had a foot analysis machine on their website so we went to check it out. Instead, the owner checked how I walked and pulled out several different options. After trying on different styles and brands, she matched my foot with the exact shoe. Amazing difference!!! I highly recommend Mile 26, even if you don't run, but if you do, this is your new go-to store!! Thank you for all of your help!!!!

I went to Mike 26 to get my son running shoes for his first track and field season, it was a wonderful experience. We got exactly what he needed, they were also extremely fair priced. I will definitely be going back again and referring all my friends.

Great Running Store, and now they've combined with another great running store (former Inside Track) - together now they have all my favorite running shoe brands. They also sponsor races for youth cross-country and track. I am very impressed. Thanks Mile 26 Team!
