In the years since, Pat has devoted his life to your foot mechanics, and making sure you get that cute tech-shirt in every conceivable color and size combination you could possibly desire. You might also remember him as the man who amused/terrified your small child while racing in a full-body rabbit suit at the 2013 Crescent City Classic. Stop and pay him a visit next time you’re in the neighborhood.
Roland LeBlanc: Co-Owner
Growing up on the mean streets of Abbeville, Louisiana, Roland LeBlanc was forced to outrun his siblings to supper in order to survive childhood. Competing for LSU, he developed an affinity for leaping over large pieces of wood into a puddle of water. Because, as it turns out, that’s an actual thing that people do. His interests include percussion instruments, watching live music, and maintaining a collection of sports cards that most ten year-olds agree is “really cool”. He aims to eradicate running injuries, and learn how to dunk a basketball. If you’re in need of running expertise, or know something about dunking a basketball, come stop by.
