Top Running Styles For Maternity + Pregnancy
Style
look-book
We were so thrilled to see Haute Volée Trisha Drobeck in Seattle a few weeks ago! At 34 weeks pregnant, she clearly had transitioned from Olympic Trials marathoner to mama-to-be with her usual Drobeck badassery! And she was such a good sport about changing about 20 times in as many minutes. Check out Trisha's favorite spring maternity #flystyle. And, enjoy this useful throwback from our running moms of Oiselle on training while pregnant and other pregnancy tidbits!
TRISHA: "I pretty much live in Oiselle gear now (1-2 sizes bigger though). I hate maternity pants, especially the ones that go over the belly... bleh!"
FLYTE TANK AND LONG SLEEVE - "Long enough to cover belly!"
ROGA SHORTS - "Roga Shorts are soft and fit great under belly."
FLYOUT SHORTS AND BIG BIRD RACERBACK TANK - "I love horizontal stripes over the belly! Makes me proud to show the bump off."
JOGGING KNICKERS AND SPRING WAZZIE WOOL RACERBACK - "Waist band goes great under the belly, run or work"
MIO MESH DRESS - "Loving the soft sheen of the fabric. This dress works for all trimesters. Great stand alone or with legging."
GIFTED VERRAZANO BRA + LUX PANTS - "The Gifted Verrazano is a must for pregnancy boobs! I sized up and this bra is perfect for running or just lounging. The colors make me happy too! And Lux Track Pants on the couch every night!"
LUXIE TANK - "There nothing about Lux fabric that I don't just love. And this tank works as a base layer or standalone!"
UPDATE! Happy Birthday, Baby Drobeck! It's a girl, 19" & 5lbs 12oz., 3 1/2 weeks early left them unprepared... so name is coming. Congratulations, you two!

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.
