The three-day event is set to kick off on Friday, March 25 at 5:30 p.m. with an in-store bingo activity for prizes including running shoes, custom insoles, apparel and more. The celebration will continue on Saturday, March 26 and Sunday, March 27 at 10 a.m. where the first 25 shoppers will receive a goodie bag filled with swag and accessories, including a pair of sunglasses, water bottle, shoe laces and more. Shoppers will also be entered to win free gear valued at over $500 daily throughout the weekend and a grand prize of a $1,000 shopping spree.

“We invite the Arlington community to join us for a fun and interactive shopping event,” said Road Runner Sports Director of Customer Acquisition Sean Peterson. “Our grand opening weekend aims to provide shoppers the opportunity to experience the quality, variety and value we offer in all things running, walking and fitness.”

In partnership with Project Sole, community members are invited to bring used or unwanted shoes that will be distributed to communities in need through the charity’s mission of ‘Give compassion and a pair of shoes.’ For every used or unwanted shoe brought to Road Runner Sports Arlington, Project Sole will also donate $3 to Athletes Helping Athletes (AHA), a nonprofit founded by Road Runner Sports to provide free adaptive bikes to children with permanent physical disabilities.

Road Runner Sports is one of the largest running specialty retailers in the country, offering a vast selection of running shoes, accessories and apparel. The company specializes in The Perfect Fit Zone, a revolutionary fit analysis using a 3D scan of the foot paired with treadmill testing of one’s foot mechanics to produce customized insoles for the perfect fitting shoe.
