Confluence Thursday
MORE THAN JUST A SHOE STORE
SHOE FITTINGS
Based on arch type, cushioning level, and pronation style shoe need to be fit or "matched" properly to specific feet. Shoes have a finite life expectancy whether used or unused. Under normal circumstances this means switching shoes every 300-500 miles or about 6 months of consistent wear. If you work, laugh, play, and also run in shoes, this timeframe can be very different.
I.e. Standing on your feet for 4 hours a day without any running = 6 month replacement time

Confluence Thursday
Join us for the Thursday evening group run from Confluence Running Store at 46 S. Washington Street in Binghamton, New York at 6:00pm. Confluence Thursday is all about coming together, and the social side of running. Doesn't matter if you are just beginning or have been running for years, if you run 50+ miles per week or just a few, if you go nice and slow or speed along.. no matter what kind of runner you are, we would love for you to join us. This group is about meeting up with others in our community for motivation, support, and fun! You can hang out at the store, check out shoes, apparel, and accessories, socialize, run a mile or two, or run one of the loops of 3 or 4 miles. ALL are welcome and encouraged.
There are run routes of about 4 miles or 3 miles (map link posted below), both starting and ending at the running store. Or you can just do a shorter out and back, if you aren't ready for those distances. Rain or shine.
Confluence Running is across from Number 5 Restaurant, next to Sweet Frog Binghamton and Thirsty's.
