Heartbreak Hill Running Company

Knowledgeable staff, not an overwhelming selection of shoes, just the good stuff. Conveniently located right on Heartbreak hill! You probably won't get a bargain here, but you're shoes will fit, and serve you well.

Heartbreak Hill Running Company is aptly named as it's along the "Heartbreak Hill" segment of the Boston Marathon route down Commonwealth Ave. It's where I stood to watch the race.

Such great advice about what shoes would work for me and my running goals. Staff were so patient and helped me try on 6+ pairs until I found the one that was right for me. Cheerful, inclusive, and informative. I will never buy running shoes anywhere else!

I had an incredible experience getting new running shoes here! The staff are so kind and unpretentious. They carried a great variety of shoes, socks, running clothing, and other gear at reasonable prices. Go here the next time you need shoes!
