Flock To The Finish

Racing

On June 25th, 2016, Devon Yanko ran 100 miles. While she traversed that great distance alone, our team and community ran by her side. Looking back on that moment, we are both inspired and proud. 

Lauren Fleshman explains it best:

"To watch Devon Yanko race 100 miles is to witness a storm in the middle of the sea. She is sideways rain from swirling clouds colliding with 50 foot waves to form one body of water; She is a thousand powerful currents gently moving all the sea life beneath. She is frightening, and beautiful, and exactly as she should be."

Our partners at REI joined us for this incredible experience, and helped us capture the story in a powerful video. We hope you enjoy.

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.
