When Ralph and Sherri Lennon moved to Punta Gorda six years ago, Sherri was disappointed that they had to drive to specialty shops in Sarasota or Fort Myers to buy her running shoes. As she became acquainted with the running community, other runners expressed their wishes to buy their shoes locally.
Their wishes came true when Ralph gave Sherri a brilliant Christmas present — her recently opened business, The Foot Landing, a specialty store for all levels of athletic runners and walkers. Conveniently located at 117 Herald Court, Suite 1112, Punta Gorda, the shop is the only one of its kind in the area.
