Amarillo is full of great local businesses and owners. We love to cheer them on when they succeed. That’s why it’s exciting to hear that an Amarillo business is expanding.
Karen Roberts introduced Amarillo to an amazing run specialty store in 2009 when she opened Get Fit in Wolflin Square. Sixteen years later, she’s still going strong, supplying Amarillo with proper running shoes, apparel, and accessories.
Where is Get Fit’s Second Location?
According to a Facebook post, Get Fit is opening a new location in The Greenways. The new store will be located at 7669 Hillside, Suite 500, in Greenways Village.
How Get Fit Chooses the Right Shoe
Get Fit is the perfect place to be properly fitted for running shoes. The staff spend time learning about your goals. Then they use a system to scan your feet. From the results, they recommend shoes and inserts. You have 60 days to return a shoe if it’s not right for you. Having the wrong running shoe can affect your performance.

Get Fit not only provides access to some of the greatest running products, but also offers a chance to be a part of a running community.

It’s a great way to stay in shape and have some fun with others who love running.
