Jenkintown Running Co.

The Original Running Company 

WE ARE BACK OPEN FOR NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS! 

Our Flagship Store with a Rich History in Running

Our story started when our founder, Bob Gamberg, opened the Philadelphia area's first sporting goods store in 1981 located in Elkins Park, PA. Since then, Bob shaped the business into a running specialty shop with an industry leading professional staff steeped in running, track & field, and fitness experience. 
​Aside from an extensive selection of running shoes and apparel, we are a primary source for track & field competition shoes and team uniforms. From High Schools to colleges, we outfit many area sports teams to keep them performing at the highest level. In support of our sport, we offer discounts to student-athletes for footwear, as well as to participants in such activities as local races, Gyms, and charity organizations. We also carry a selection of cross-training and casual shoes. Our entire staff is product trained to provide unsurpassed service.
