Chase the Bird Challenge

Ahh it's the windup to the winter. We see you eyeing that Yeti. But it's not time to hibernate - it's time to streak! Join us for the #chasethebird streak to Thanksgiving (November 26th).
#CHASETHEBIRD
From November 1st - 26th, we challenge you to do (at least) 15 minutes of something everyday: dirty dozen, swim laps, bike to work, hit the Jazzercise studio, join us at Flywheel, go running ... just move! Because it's easy to fall into all or nothing (specifically nothing) as winter descends in all it's candy cane lane glory.
Then share what you did each day with #chasethebird.
WHY?
- (See above) Hibernating is for bears not birds.
- Plus! We're watching and rewarding. We'll be randomly picking #chasethebird shares on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook and sending you something worth streaking for!
It all starts November 1st. You ready to #chasethebird?!

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.
