Jenkintown Running Co.

The Original Running Company 

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 in Elkins Park. Bob shaped the business into a running specialty shop with an industry leading professional staff steeped in running, track & field, and fitness experience. 
​With an extensive selection of running shoes and apparel, we are a primary source for track & field competition shoes. From high schools to colleges, we outfit many area sports teams and keep them performing at the highest levels.  We offer discounts to student-athletes and local running groups for footwear.  Our entire staff is product trained to provide unsurpassed service.
