Six Weeks to Run Love Challenge
Running, similar to any relationship, is filled with ups and downs. In order to keep that loving feeling alive, you have to put in the work to make it last.
This year, we’re kicking off the New Year with a six-week to run love challenge! The New Year is the perfect time for a fresh start, it’s a time to dream big and jump into a new relationship (or resolution) with arms wide open.
#RUNLOVECHALLENGE - JOIN IN!
- Pick a partner, or shall we say a run lover.
- Set a mutual goal to be achieved on/by February 14th.
- Check in on the O blog each Monday for our challenge of the week and complete it with your run lover near or far.
Chose your partner wisely as you’ll need someone who will hold you accountable. Your mutual running goal can be anything from training for a race, upping your mileage, completing a tough workout at the end of the six weeks, you name it.
Guaranteed to fall in love with the run? That’s up to you and your partner. We’re just here to keep things spicy and throw some challenges at you along the way. And if you're in Seattle, meet us at the Oiselle Store for TNFC (Thursday Night Flight Club) group run every Thursday, 6:30pm. Bring your run-lover and get ready to win new raffle prizes each week! We'll see you back here on January 4th for the first challenge.

Core Routine For Runners: The Dozen
I was introduced to the "The Dozen" in the winter of 2012 by my favorite Oregon running family. I love this set of core exercises for its efficient targeting of core muscle groups, and because no gym equipment is required! You can do this on a grass field, in your hotel room, or really anywhere you can lay on a flat surface.
Reflecting on the Year of the Underbird
This past August, we launched our Year of the Underbird program: an open application for aspiring Olympic Trials marathoners, with a promise to select 5 women for a 6 month contract encompassing a stipend, gear, storytelling, and community support. As we reach the end of our flight with our selected athletes, we invited each of them to share a few reflections on their past 6 months as teammates.
Black History Month: Celebrating Our Athletes
We are honored to support five exceptional Black women athletes challenging norms in the running industry: athletes, advocates, and powerful voices in the sport. We invited each of them to reflect on their journeys through sport: how their identity has affected their development, and how they hope to impact the rising generation of athletes. Hear from Madie Boreman, Kendra Coleman, Brenna Detra, Carmen Pelar Graves, and Ari Hendrix-Roach.
