We work hard and we play hard.After a late flight on Friday, Janet laced up Saturday morning and ran through the stunning trails of @lakesonoma50Rolling hills, winding singletrack, creek crossings and the classic California sunshine ☀️This is a fast course and one that asks a lot, and Janet answered with strength, grace and continuous forward motion - even when navigating stomach issues.Way to go Janet! 💪You dug deep, smiled wide and reminded us of why we love this sport!Love and Mette,

Motivation Monday. When your legs get tired run with your heart.Our athletes showed up big this weekend, not just to race but to go all in!Let’s start with Jon. Just 5 weeks after breaking 2 ribs, Jon ran a strong 50K with relentless pacing, dialed-in nutrition and pure heart.Awesome effort! 💪This is what happens when you train smart and keep putting in the work.So make today count, whether you’re coming back from injury or deep in a training block, prioritize one thing.Less hesitation, more action.Have an awesome day!Love and Mettle,
