MEET THE CREW

Picture

TIM - co-founder, owner

Tim, noble patriarch of the OK Runner family, has been in the running shoe business for over 30 years. His introduction to running footwear came while working at The Runner, a small but beloved running store located near Lake Hefner prior to its closing in the mid-2000s. After Tim attended Oklahoma State University, he opened OK Runner's first location in 1995 alongside his brother (Craig) and father (Gus). A lifelong runner, Tim has transitioned from training full-time for his own races to helping members of the Oklahoma community - young and old - train for theirs. His weeks are filled with road trips to small towns to fit high school XC and track teams for shoes, coordinating with local organizations to promote their health and wellness events, and timing races in and around the central Oklahoma area.

CRAIG - co-founder, certified pedorthist

Craig has been a part of the OK Runner team since its beginning in 1995. In 2012, he decided to enhance his ability to fit Oklahoma's runners and walkers for the right footwear by taking classes to receive certification as a sports pedorthist. Upon completing his education and learning to mold orthotics in Bend, Oregon, Craig started Oh-Be-Joyful Orthotics, based within our Norman location. Craig enjoys escaping to Oregon and Colorado in the summer with his dog, Mikey, for fly fishing and hiking in cooler parts of the country. Having graduated from Western State University in Colorado, the Gunnison and Crested Butte area holds a special place in his heart - hence the name Oh-Be-Joyful!
