ABOUT RUNNERS NEED

We are Runners Need. Since 1982, we’ve been providing runners of all abilities the kit, community and confidence to run well and feel good. We’re driven by the belief that it’s never too late to start running and are always striving to improve our services to support that, with free gait analysis, expert staff and nationwide Run Clubs helping you from your first run to marathons and beyond.

 

In 2015 Runners Need and Cotswold Outdoor became partners. We share the belief that people are happier outside and strive to provide the tools for everyone to enjoy the outdoors as much as we do. That’s why we’ve decided to team up and bring Runners Need to Cotswold Outdoor, giving you the ultimate outdoor shopping experience.
