Who We Are
Chattanooga's first (and best) run specialty shop
We are Fast Break Athletics, the oldest running store in Tennessee and the heartbeat of the Chattanooga running community.
Since 1977, we have outfitted, encouraged and empowered hundreds of thousands of runners and walkers. Our team has 150 collective years of expertly fitting shoes onto one million feet.
Yes, we sell shoes — more than 3,000 pairs from top brands like Hoka, Altra, New Balance, On, and Nike — and more gear and merch than you could imagine.
We also offer something priceless. Something money can't buy. Community. Fellowship. Connection.

OUR PARTNERS
We believe running is a party. Runners throw the best parties.
We work with local businesses, restaurants and nonprofits, placing their work at the center of each race and block party. That's our style 365 days/year. We're always partnering, building relationships and shining the light on other local small businesses. Why? Because it takes all of us to make it in this world. We're stronger together.
