This month we're discussing what it means to have life move fast, grow older, adjust expectations, and what has changed (or stayed the same) in our running journey! Both Adam and Alicia turned 40 years old this year and they each took some time to adventure ... in totally different ways. Join us in processing change and how running / activity can be a great touchpoint for the other things that are actually (much more) important.

We're talking all about how running, walking, and even just moving supports & contributes to our mental health. What is the "icing" and what is "the cake"? How are healthy (and unhealthy) patterns developed and what does it mean to look at our process more than our goals? What does mental toughness mean and how do you endure hard things on the run (or in life)? These are all questions and themes we're asking and talking about this month as we close out Mental Health May!

We're talking all things shoes!!! It goes without saying ... we sell (and help!) with shoes. It can be so overwhelming with how the industry and models have changed over the years. We're here to help be a guide for your particular fit and use of active shoes ... running, walking, standing, hiking, all of the above.
