Review of Up & Running


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Due a new pair of running shoes…

Due a new pair of running shoes and read good reports on Up and Running in Darlington so called in. Explained situation to Dan about hard skin and discoloured toe nails, to learn my current running shoes were too small. Dan put me on treadmill and went through my running style and discussed which brands I would be suited by.
No hard sales pitch just great friendly staff, settled on a pair of Puma Nitro which also happened to be in sale so additional bonus😁
This will be my go to shop now for ruining gear, thanks Dan learnt more in 30 minutes than last 5 years running.

Trail Shoes

Looking for a pair of trail shoes for cross country at reasonable price. Close the Adidas Terrex at a great price and worn once for walking and once for hill running, great fit and very comfortable.

Great weekend

Arrived for briefing at 1pm then on to boat for instructions and guidance through first 3 locks then off we went on a fabulous weekend, and no rain😁. Well equipped barge nothing missing and better than our expectations, would definitely recommend and although we had to return by Sunday afternoon, we got back from Stubbing wharf with time to spare. Our instructor was 10/10

Rescheduled concert

I had booked to see Jason Isbell back in 2020 but it was rescheduled as few times and I can't find email regarding tickets.
So I emailed Ents24 and had 2 emails the same day one with tickets attached.
First class service👍

Take your money then don't want to…

Take your money then don't want to know.
Ordered treadmill on 27th January after checking online chat to make sure no additional taxes and on stock. Immediate confirmation saying being processed and dispatch in 1-3 days. After 3 days online chat where I had to push to get a definite dispatch by 3rd February. Online chat on 3rd to be told it was awaiting processing and they raised a support ticket to get 24 hour reply, I also clicked on MD contact but that just raised a support ticket. So 3 support tickets and 24 hours later nothing, I have now raised it with my card provider for a charge back.
Avoid at all costs it's impossible to speak to anyone!
