About Us

ATHelite was born at the end of 2005 with our original East Kilbride shop opening its doors on January 3rd 2006. Serving runners, walkers, gym goers & the like our aim was to offer great products, service & advice, whatever your level of ability, in the local community.

2007 saw the arrival of ATHelite Hamilton which was opened in two phases. The running section opened in July 2007 & the upstairs expansive Triathlon section opened later in September featuring a wealth of Cycling, Swimming & Triathlon Clothing & Accessories.  The Triathlon section has developed & grown each year & we now stock the largest range of Triathlon apparel & accessories anywhere in Scotland. 

2010 was an important & exciting year for ATHelite & featured a few changes for the Company. This commenced on January 31st when we began the merger of our two Businesses.  In a streamlining move ATHelite East Kilbride joined up with our much larger Hamilton Store to create one bigger, one stop shop for all your Running & Triathlon needs & the shop has gone from strength to strength as a result of this move.

ATHelite also trades competitively off the website at www.ATHelite.net & is a great place to find all current stock, brand new products and bargain clearance items. The launch of a brand new ecommerce website at the end of 2010 will lead to an enhanced customer experience with new branding & functionality.

We know that our customers expect our staff to know what they are talking about. This is why we insist that all our team are highly trained & are capable of offering great friendly & knowledgeable service. Team members must be both passionate about & active in the local running & triathlon community. Every member of our team is a local Running or Triathlon Club member & can be seen actively competing at different levels locally & internationally.
