WHO WE ARE
Owners
Before opening FLEET FEET St. Louis,

high school and at the University of
Michigan. After moving to St. Louis, David coached at St. Charles West
High School and Lindenwood University and has continued to participate in

meeting David in college. She gravitated towards the longer distances
