About Us

My name is Christina McKittrick and I am the new owner of Lively Athletics as of July 2025. After being a loyal Lively customer for many years, I am so proud to continue the tradition of providing cute athletic clothes for men and women, comfortable shoes for men, women, and kiddos, trendy jewelry, bags, and sunglasses, the best running gear, and more. 

A little bit about me... I am a true Oak Parker (born, raised, and now live).  In addition to owning the store I am a wife and mom of 3 young kiddos (8, 6, and 4 year olds). I am also a Science Teacher at OPRF, JV Girl's Swim Coach, and I run travel abroad programs to Costa Rica and Tanzania in the summers. I am also a fitness instructor with Fit4Mom Oak Park River Forest. 

I am so excited to continue to give back to the community, listen to what our customers want, and remain focused on providing the best, nicest customer service ever. 

Being nice sounds simple, but it is truly what makes us different. We are nice. Everyone who works here is nice. And we will be nice to you if you come and see us. 

If you ever need anything, just give us a call at 708-358-0605 or email me at christina@livelyathletics.com.
