John, who began running in 1981, found the quality of service in large sporting goods stores was very poor and the staff - usually on a commission basis - were anxious to sell the most expensive rather than the most appropriate shoe to customers. This entrepreneurial Albertan decided to fill this niche in the marketplace by opening a small one room store in the renovated living room of an old house in Edmonton, hence the name, ""Running Room."" The concept was highly successful and has since expanded to over 90 locations across Canada and the United States of America." |
