The locally owned running apparel store is holding specials and giveaways throughout the weekend, and Sammamish Mayor Tom Odell will cut the grand opening ribbon today at noon.

Don't miss the grand opening weekend of Plateau Runner at the Saffron CenterΒ

At noon today, Sammamish Mayor Tom Odell will participate in a Ribbon Cutting ceremony with the Sammamish Chamber of Commerce, and the new running apparel store will hold specials and give-aways throughout the weekend.

The store was launched in November by Mark and Elizabeth Steen and Todd Starnes, Sammamish residents who were tired of having to travel to find good running gear.
