Ottawa is a city that moves, and we’re here to move with you. We’re joining a neighbourhood that’s full of energy: marathoners, stroller joggers, and casual cruisers all sharing the same incredible network of paths and trails. From the bridges to Gatineau to Weekend Bike Days on the scenic parkway, Ottawa is a city that makes space for active living, and we're excited to be part of it.
For years, Ottawa’s running community has asked us to bring BlackToe to our Nation’s Capital, and we listened. As Canada’s leading run specialty store, we’ve built our reputation on providing expert shoe fittings, personalized service, and building strong, supportive communities. Now, we’re proud to serve all of Ottawa, including the Westboro, Wellington West, Hintonburg, and Kitchissippi neighbourhoods with the same expertise and welcoming atmosphere we’re known for.
At BlackToe Running, we believe that running is for everybody. Our team is here to support you with the best gear, expert advice, opportunities to connect with other running enthusiasts, and a commitment to helping everyone, whether you're chasing a new PB or your very first finish line, find their perfect fit!
More than just a retail store, we’re building a space where the Ottawa running scene can thrive. We’ll be rolling out free community runs, training programs, seasonal events, meetups, and so much more. So, what is the best way to receive all of our Ottawa-related updates? Be sure to sign up for our mailing list and follow us on Instagram! We can’t wait to be Ottawa’s new go-to destination for running gear, guidance, and all-around good vibes!
