It's not uncommon to see Rhode Runner staffers out on the roads, living their work. Less common, but not unheard of, is to see them running races in full tutu regalia. That's because the same guys who take your feet very seriously also know how to have fun with the sport. When you come in, be prepared to take a whirl on the in-store treadmill, put there for careful evaluation of your running behaviors. In addition to high-performance brands including Brooks, Saucony, Nike, Asics and New Balance, they also stock quality running accessories and equipment (although at last check, no moisture-wicking tutus).
