  Very patient and knowledgeable staff at both Birmingham locations. I've never felt pressured to buy products or shoes I don't need, and they really take their time to answer questions.

  Extremely knowledgeable staff that can get you in the right running shoe! They can do a gait analysis and give you options (from price point to style) with their large selection of shoes! Their team operates more like a family versus a business. They also have excellent sock selections... call me crazy, but it's a big deal for long distance runners!
  Oh and they are AMAZING supporters in the community!

  I am a nurse and am on my feet all day. My feet hurt constantly and I have developed a heel spur. I came in to the 280 location today (which was recommended to me by my chiropractor) and was greeted by Donna. She knew exactly what I needed and hooked me up with a pair of Hoka's. My feet already feel fantastic! Thank you Donna!

  I have been purchasing running shoes, clothing, and gear etc. here since 2006 or 2007 so I am now on a first-name basis with some of the employees. That being said, there is a reason I keep going back to the Trak Shak. They will work with you to find the right running shoe. The first time I went there, I needed help because some shoes I purchased at another store made my big toe nails fall off on both feet (yes, it was gross). They explained what caused the problem and got me into the right shoe. I have been running comfortably ever since that first visit. The store also truly supports the running community and their Wednesday night runs are always fun.

  I love the Trak Shak folks. They are practically family by now. I've bought every pair of running shoes there since Cross Country in High School (when it was actually in a house).
  
  Their regular Wednesday Night runs (5:30 at the curve) and involvement in so many local events is a testament to the fact that Val, Scott, Jeff, Tracy and crew love and support the Birmingham running community. That should speak for something. ...
