Temporarily closed
We’d like to express our heartfelt thanks to all our customers through the years, it’s been wonderful to be a part of your running journey.

We're sad to anounce the store will be closing in June.

The GEL-CUMULUS 22 is now in store. This update features a one-piece upper mesh that's combined with a seamless 3D print construction, which balances support and comfort around the foot.
The FLYTEFOAM technology midsole is softer than the previous version to promote a pillowy ride.
You can't choose the weather, but you can choose your response. When race-day forecast calls for hot and sunny, you need gear that's airy and light. The thin, breathable fabric of this adidas running t-shirt feels barely there. Ventilation on the back keeps air circulating for a cooling sensation on desert trails and city streets.
We were born to move. These adidas Ultraboost 20 Shoes were designed to remind you why you love running. The flexible outsole works with the responsive midsole cushioning for a smooth stride. These shoes showcase adidas' commitment to creating a healthy planet with an upper made from Parley Ocean Plastic upcycled plastic waste collected from ocean shores.
With the easing of social distancing we are now able offer free gait analysis in store.
Wow. Thank you to everyone who came to the store today. It was lovely to hear so many fantastic experiences of running through this difficult time. Bring on tomorrow! 💪🏻💛
We’re so pleased to be able to say we will be re-opening tomorrow! 🥰💛 Doors will open again at 10am until 8pm.
Changes have been made throughout the store to help ensure a safe environment for everyone and we ask your cooperation in maintaining safe social practices.
A reminder as well if you are needing to use public transport to reach us that from Monday it is required that you wear a face mask 😷
Although we’re closed until further notice please feel free to drop us a message with any issues or queries you might have and we’ll do our best to help.
You will still be able to find anything you may need on sweatshop.com.
Stay safe 💛
With distancing being a key part of our social responsibility at this time SRC will be much more informal to help maintain distancing.
We will not be taking any pre-run registration in store or pictures prior to starting so encourage people to begin running once they have dropped off any items needed in store. We hope this will help to stagger the numbers and ensure we are not grouping. We will have a colleague begin sweeping the route from 6:15 but encourage you to start any time prior to this.
We would love to continue to provide a guided running environment during these uncertain times but must do our part. We will be monitoring how this works and if we cannot suitably distance for the well-being of everyone we’ll re-evaluate continuing.
Our SRC runs will be continuing as guidance currently stands, but from next week will be running between 6-7pm instead. However please let common sense prevail and for the safety of others please refrain from attending should you be experiencing any symptoms.
Tonight’s group will be meeting at 7pm for a Hills session. We hope to continue to see you, and those of you who are needing to self isolate - stay safe 💛
