New England Running Company and Trail

IN THE OPENING MONTH OF New England Running Company and Trail’s existence, Dave Menosky remembers one particular day in which he sold but one pair of shorts. The next day, he added a single pair of shoes to the ledger. Suffice it to say, things have turned in a more fruitful direction for Menosky and his store in Beverly, MA.

“Twenty years later, I’m shocked our business is still growing,” says Menosky, who first got into running in 1973 and fills his store with running memorabilia, including T-shirts, posters and archival footwear.

To celebrate the shop’s 20th Anniversary, Menosky took the store’s management staff and their significant others to Cancun before a day-long celebration at the store on July 10.
