Love the Run
Setup in the depths of the Covid-19 pandemic, The Running Bubble has grown from strength to strength providing essential running knowledge, high quality products and exclusive events for the running community across Northern Ireland.
Where it all began
With no specialist running shops in Lisburn, Michael Stewart and Gillian Burns decided to take a chance and open their very own spot in 2020.
“We both have a love for running and a passion for the sport. Given the times we are in, we thought that this is the ideal time to take our love of running to the next level and create a running outlet that is very much a part of the local running community. "
Knowledge
We attend courses, talk to local physios and immerse ourselves in the latest studies all for the benefit of every runner that walks through our doors. We strive to offer the best advice to all running abilities, provide connections to clubs and promote local races. Our store is setup to provide a full gait analysis service that everyone can avail of.
Gait Analysis
Whether your walking, racing, training, couch to 5k...ing, we can assess your gait and provide insights to the right footwear for you.
