We are Fleet Feet Sports Elmhurst

Frank DeJulius & Stacey Kaiser

Jay Jackson

It all started for Jay back when he ran his first 400 in 7^th grade, on a grass track with his adidas hi-top basketball shoes. He enjoyed the sport so much that he wound up running through college at North Central College. While still enjoying the sport of running to this day, Jay also has a great love for his wife of 15 years, his three children, summer picnics, Jesus, and The Well Church. When he isn't at the store, you can find him putting together plans to grow the Stop The Traffic 5k in Batavia or jamming to songs by U2, Bob Dylan, or any Oldie that happens to come on. If your looking for a true professional with years of running experience, Jay is your guy! 

Candice Albergo

Candice is the newest memeber of our team, but she tons to offer!  Candice is everything style, she works everyday to make our store look awesome and have lots of great apparel pieces on the wall to choose from.  While she isn't a big runner, Candice loves everything active and healthy, and does enjoy the occational job.  She is also a yoga instructor at the store and a few other studios around Chicagoland.  She went to college for baking and is alway brining in sweet treats for the staff and employees.  One day she will want to open a cupcake shop called "Half Baked".  Until then you will find her at the store making sure we are always ahead of the curve when it comes to pairing style with sport!

 Jenny Ellis

 Jenny and her husband are recent transplants to the Elmhurst community.  In July 2010 they made the move from her hometown of Richmond, Virgina.  An avid runner and triathlete she just took a break from it all as she is expecting their first baby in June.  At the store Jenny can always be found giving great advice on everything from well fit sports bras to her favorite BOB Running Stroller.  Outside of Fleet Feet she and her husband love to travel, spending time with family, and tasting the best wines around (when not pregnant)!   

Lisa Englbrecht

Lisa job is pretty simple, she is our "Director of Fun"  So you can expect to see her at any number of our events, races, fun runs, pub runs etc.  As a part-timer Lisa bring great positive high energy to Fleet Feet on most weekday nights and weekends.  She is always smiling when she is doing what she loves; talking running!  By day, Lisa follows her other true passion of working with individuals with disabilities throughout Dupage county.  Her best experiences are when she gets to combine her two loves and use Fleet Feet events to help raise awareness and donations for her social work.  Her free time is spent perfecting her famous meatloaf recipe and walking her new rescue dog "Mike" (who can also occationally be found sniffing your leg at Fleet Feet)  Lisa favorite product in the store are her Honey Stinger Fruit Smoothie energy chews.

Vera Whitler

A No Booundaries participant turned employee, Vera loves running and working with Fleet Feet!  In fact she takes part in most of our training programs and is currently training with her husband for her first marathon with our Spring Marathon training group.  When not dishing out the best running / healthy eating tips at Fleet Feet she is planning for her trip to the Philippines where her and her husband will go to bring home their first son whom they are adopting.  Vera is very excited to go get her little boy, and we are so happy for her!  The only thing she loves as much as helping new runners achieve their goals is her daily Starbucks "coffee" and her Nike+ GPS Watch!
