Our focus is on running and walking shoes, gear, and apparel, allowing us to have an in-depth knowledge of the products we carry. Our staff are experienced runners and walkers who understand the needs and concerns of both recreational and competitive athletes. In addition to helping you find the right shoes, we can help you find the perfect hydration system for your first marathon, suggest new products to make that 20 mile run a little more enjoyable, or simply point you in the direction of some new running and walking trails.

Big River Running Company is owned and operated by native St. Louisans Matt Helbig and Ben Rosario.
