Locally Owned and Operated
OVRC is SE Ohio's only specialty running, walking, and fitness shop. We pride ourselves on our customer service, and will go out of our way to help you find the right shoe for your biomechanics - whether your passion is running, walking, hiking, road, or trails. We offer free gait analyses with no appointment necessary. OVRC is locally owned and operated by Jonathan and Ariana Bernard. Jonathan is an Athens local and Ohio University graduate who returned to Athens after 14 years on the West Coast (with his Seattle-reared wife) to open the shop.
Weekly community group runs for runners and walkers of all abilities take place every TUESDAY at 6:00pm at OVRC. Runs take place on the bike path, so you have the opportunity to go as short or as long as you'd like.
Weekly community running/walking workouts for athletes of all paces take place every THURSDAY at 6:00pm, meeting at OVRC. Workouts are led by Coach Mary Kate and/or Will Koenig.
