About The Lakes Running Company
Based on the reviews, The Lakes Running Company is an independent and locally owned running and walking specialists shop. The store features shoes, apparel, and accessories from the best brands. Customers report a really cool store with a great selection of gear. The staff provides a great detailed custom fitting for foot structure and running style, ensuring the right shoes for neutral for higher arches. The crew is amazing and goes above and beyond with custom orders and drop shipped merchandise right to the home. The service is great, with staff being very friendly and accommodating, making customers feel welcomed. The owner is super knowledgeable about seemingly all running shoes and their pros and cons. One customer had blisters on longer runs with old shoes, and after a fitting, ran that night a very long run with no issues. This is the best running shop in the state of Minnesota and a great asset to the community.

Getting back into running, went in to get a new pair of shoes, they did a great detailed custom fitting, right shoes for my foot structure (neutral for higher arches) and my running style. Great customer service and support. The Lakes Running Co is my new go to for my running needs!
