Steve killed it today. I showed up at 11am on a Tuesday and the store was busy for a midweek day. Nonetheless Steve picked the ideal set of options for me in minutes and the first one was the winner. Walked out 30 minutes later with the most comfy shoes I’ve ever run in. Wallet was a bit lighter though :)

Marathon sports Lexington was great in helping me try on some shoes I was looking for and were helpful giving me comparable alternatives, and were not pushy in trying to force a sale - I ended up purchasing the pair I had tried on from their online store after comparing to a few other models. Thanks!
