History

Established in 2001.

The Running Place was started by Pattie Bucaccio and Joan Osborne in early 2001 to offer outstanding service and expertise to both runners and walkers. We also work closely with local sports medicine providers to make sure their recovery is enhanced by choosing the best shoe fit possible. Joan retired in June 2009 and local runner, Bill Frawley joined the business after working in the store for five years. In 2012 Pattie retired and Ken Taylor, another long-​time employee, became Bill’s partner in the shop. When you shop here you will recognize the staff since most of them are long-​time staffers with a lot of experience in helping customers.
