Oiselle has been dreaming of putting on a road race for at least four years. So when our friends at Snohomish Running Company wanted to collaborate on a 10K/10M spring race, jubilation ensued!  

We are thrilled to announce that on Earth Day, 2017 (Saturday, April 22nd), the Tenacious Ten will take over iconic Gas Works Park in Seattle. We will be featuring both 10 mile and 10K distances around Lake Union for all levels and types of runners (yep, dudes too!), as well as a kids 1K.

For November (the first month), race registration will only be available in our Oiselle Store at University Village. If you can’t get to in-store registration during November, please enter your email at the link below to be the first to receive online registration info. Seattle destination race alert: get in here and get tenacious with us!

Since day one, Oiselle has been about running and racing. So to have the chance to sponsor a premiere race in our hometown is incredibly exciting. And we like to think a "tenacious" themed event is perfect for Seattle. We are a hearty, outdoorsy, fun and fierce community. The race will welcome everyone, every pace, getting tenacious from start to finish.

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.
