I went to a St Louis Tri Club meeting tonight and saw a presentation by 2 young guys who have started Big River Running.
I still think that Fleet Feet is a great store and my main running hookup, but these guys at Big River are the real deal as well. Both guys have stellar running resumes from high school and college (Ben won his first marathon at Virginia Beach and finished 70th at Boston in 2:33).
Their goal is to create a spirit of the "running community in StL". I haven't been to the store yet but they say it's a cool place to come out and hang. Even though Matt ran a mile in under 4 minutes (which is crazy), they are, like, totally laidback dudes and kind towards newbies.
