Harrogate running retailer unveils new-look store after refit

Monday, 1 September 2025 13:14

Up & Running in Harrogate has had a makeover.

A long-standing Harrogate sports retailer has unveiled its refreshed look following a recent refit.

Up & Running on Station Parade has been part of the community for more than three decades and is recognised as one of the UK’s leading independent running specialists.

The store’s update is part of a wider rebrand across the company’s network, with a focus on creating a more modern and engaging environment for customers.

Store Manager Andy Fawcett told Your Harrogate:

“The refit is a bit of an update in a chain of stores that’s been around for over 30 years.

"The reason for the refit is rebranding and giving more of a youthful focus, while putting more emphasis on the gait analysis.”

The Harrogate branch has long been known for its specialist services, including free gait analysis.

The refresh aims to enhance the customer experience while ensuring the store continues to appeal to both new and existing runners.
