We’ve had a lot of calls and questions about the group runs lately, so decided we should pin this post. The Thursday Night Jogging Club meets at the store every week. Usually 6:30 pm. However, we start at 5:30 pm on the 3rd Thursday of the month (jogging + trivia night). If you’re unsure, check our Facebook events or call the store. We also partner with RunWEST - the friendliest running club in the southwest metro area. They run at 7:30 every Saturday morning. Locations and rotes vary, but are posted here every Thursday: runwestmn.com Both group runs are free and open to everyone. All abilities, all paces. Hope you can join us. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #Running #KeepItLocal

Thanks to everyone who made a purchase on Thursday or added to the tip jar to help support Haskell’s employees. It was really great to have a few Haskell’s team members stop in during the day. We love that our community is so deeply connected to the institutions and people that make Excelsior unique. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal

The fit process is the same, even if you don’t run. We’ll take the time to find the right shoes for however you’re moving. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal

Show up for Haskell’s. This Thursday, May 14th, we’re donating 10% of our net sales to support Haskell’s employees during this difficult time. They’re an important part of our community and we want to show them how much we care. If you don’t need to make a purchase, we have a tip jar out on the counter. Every dollar helps. Plus, the @excelsiorlionsclub has offered to match up to $5,000 of donations received. Many other Excelsior businesses are participating as well. We’re all stronger together. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal

Mother’s Day shoe buying tips: 1. Take a picture of her current shoes 2. Take a picture of the size tag inside It’s a huge help to make sure mom gets the latest model of her favorite shoe in the correct size. Of course gift cards are always available if mom wants to come in for a personalized fitting with our experienced staff. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal

It’s a very special edition of the Thursday Night Jogging Club on May 7th at 6:30 pm. Test out the ASICS Superblast 3 on the run. There’s a lot of buzz about this super trainer and it’s your opportunity to try a pair on the run. Try to arrive a little early to be fitted for demo shoes. It’s going to be a super night. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal

The best way to find the right shoe for you: work with someone who knows what they’re doing, and take the time to try several different brands / models. Every one is different, and every one is the right shoe for somebody. We actually want you to try on a bunch. We want to get it right. Every time. #RunTheLakes #LakeMinnetonka #WaterStreet #Excelsior #KeepItLocal
