USA Outdoors | Day 3
Fangirling requires hard work, dedication and a whole lot of coffee. It could practically be considered an event itself!
Here’s a look at day three of the USA Outdoor Champs...a day in the life of a superfan.
Gear up! Look good, feel good. Happy birthday Dr. Lesko, we love you!
Caffeine is key. Thanks for another awesome coffee + run meet up, Run Hub!
Head up, wings out. Penelope leads the way to the track.
Stride it out (AKA don’t miss the start to the masters 3K race). Way to go Andi Camp!
Teamwork makes the dream work. The Lawrence sisters were twinning for Britney Henry’s Hammer Throw.
Cool under pressure. With temps nearing 100 degrees, you have to find creative ways to keep your cool.
Selfie with a celeb. We see you Shalane!
Flocking from afar. Flock member, Stephanie, flew all the way from CT to cheer on some sister heroes.
Steeple people! Way to go Shalaya! Sixth place in 9:37.09.
Next up: #FLYTOWNUSA Party… See you there (DM us @oiselle for an invite).

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.
