WFH - Outdoors: Working from your balcony or back patio when the sun is shining, and it’s that perfect sweet spot of hot-but-not-too hot, is a big perk of remote jobs. If you’re one of the millions of people that live where you experience 4 seasons - you probably find yourself wasting away during the winter months at your indoor desk, getting a glimpse here & there of the sunshine. This journalist vowed to work OUTSIDE for 30 days during winter - and he…kind of loved it?

✅Harry Styles is a Marathoner: We really feel like since COVID, plain ol’ running has kind of had a comeback. Now, every Instagram influencer, boy band singer and Page Six celeb is either training for, or has run a marathon. Harry Styles just crushed Tokyo Marathon in under 4 hours.

✅Motivation Loading: This is your reminder that you need to stop waiting on other people to do the sh*t you wanna do. Moving your body is a privilege; don’t take it for granted.

✅Endurance FBI Agents: Have you ever heard that women make the best FBI agents? Give them a first name and a single other tidbit of info - they can find out everything there is to know about that person. Now, the girlies are taking their superpowers to the endurance world. Enter: shooting your shot by way of live marathon tracking. Genius.

✅Extreme MTB park: Do we own $2000 mountain bikes? Yes. Do we have the b*lls to hit a park like this? HELL NO. Is it that these riders have blatant disregard for personal safety, or they really are just about the Full Sends?

Watchless Running: In a world of Strava, Garmin Connect, GPS watches, Apple watches, Oura rings - to be fully unplugged from technology is nearing the impossible mark, not just in endurance sports, but daily life in general. This runner decided to go 30 days without technology on their daily runs.

✅Jelly Roll’s (newest) Club: Jelly Roll is a popular rap artist/songwriter - he has had to overcome a lot to get where he is - and never had anything handed to him. Now, he’s tackling his newest challenge; running a 5K. You can join his official run club - “Jelly Roll’s Losers Run Club” HERE.

✅Winter Triathlon Champs: One of the perks of being a triathlete is typically, you’re only traveling and racing in places that basically have beach weather. We want to know who created the Winter Triathlon - and when you find them, we’d like to have a word about this nonsense event.

✅Hell have no fury like a woman scorned: In the words of T.Swift -”I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” Lauren Ryan bags a 3000M PR after her idiot boyfriend dumped her, by text, on Valentine’s Day. If that happened to us - you’d find us at the bottom of a Ben & Jerry’s pint.

✅Tried & True: This little number was worn the entire time by Claire Dumont to hike the Appalachian Trail - we’ve had Shein dresses that fell apart after 15 minutes. If that’s not a testament for the durability and quality construction of Hikerkind apparel - we don’t know what is. Buy your own little yellow dress HERE.

Where to Find the Best Deals on Hoka Shoes

Are you a runner? More specifically, a road runner? Hoka was built for that. Meaning “to fly” in Maori, Hoka was founded in 2009 so that runners could get the ultimate experience with optimum cushioning and stability. Less than 15 years after its founding, Hoka is bringing in revenues topping a billion dollars a year, so it’s clear that people are loving this brand. But with quality comes high prices, and Hoka is no doubt in the high end price-wise. So we’ve rounded up the best stores to find the best deals for Hoka.

WTF Post of the Week: A marathon…in a hotel room? WHYYY.

Tidbits

Patagonia: not just the unofficial frat brand: Patagonia is a beautiful country - yes, hard to get to for most of the North American crowd; flights are $1000+, and at least 25 hours of travel, but it’s worth a bucket list add. The outdoor adventure and endurance activities are plentiful, it’s relatively safe for Westerners and…*mostly* cheap.

✅The O.G Endurance Event: Hiking the Appalachian Trail, the original endurance challenge. 5-7 month commitment, deciding to hike North → South or South → North, planning refuel stops - it’s a HUGE undertaking and while you must cover 2,190+ miles by yourself, it’s definitely not a solo adventure, it takes a village.

✅Ultramarathoning: Moab, Utah has a relentless and expansive terrain. It’s unforgiving, hot and offers little reprise in the way of ‘easy’ conditions. Doing an ultramarathon in ANY environment is a nearly impossible task - but doing it in a desert?? whoaaa, man. Next level.

✅Glacier National Park: Hut to hut hiking isn’t something that’s super common in the United States, but it is super cool and allows those of us that don’t want to traditionally backpack (with a bunch of heavy sh*t), to explore the backcountry safely & comfortably.

✅Heliskiing, next level: Jumping out of a helicopter on top of a snow-covered, maybe avalanche-risky mountain is already an endurance activity very few of us will be able to say we did, but launching yourself sky-diving style from a chairlift in the sky? Count us out.

“Time is either spent wisely, or it is just spent. Second after second; minute after minute; moment after moment... they’re all there for the taking. All you need is a simple machine that that defies boundaries and knows no limits. This is Return to Earth, the ninth feature from award-winning adventure filmmakers Anthill Films. A cinematic journey that will immediately transport you into that feeling of total immersion you get on a bike ride. Fly through the lush coastal jungles of Oahu. Feel the dust from Utah’s otherworldly landscapes. Lose yourself in the untouched mountains of Patagonia. Connected by true to life examples set by some of the sport’s biggest athletes, unsung shredders and up-and-coming youth, Return to Earth proves that when we lose track of time, we can make the most of it.” -MTBFilms via Youtube

✅Home Videos: In the endurance world, GoPro cameras have kind of been the gold standard for endurance and extreme sport athletes. Honestly, after watching this video, our minds are wandering to DJI…which camera really is the best?

✅Bad Burritos Coming Back: Shelby Houlihan served a 4 year ban from USATF sanctioned events due to testing positive for banned substances - something she blamed on eating a bad burrito with tainted meat. Now, her ban is up and she hit the racing circuit - literally - running, with a win at the Razorback Invitational her first weekend back. Watch her come back story below.

A testament to the power of human spirit and the beauty of unity.” -Project 1000 via Youtube

✅Backyard Ultramarathoning: During COVID, backyard ultramarathoning became extremely popular, and for ultrarunners that don’t aspire to run 100 miles on a single loop course - it’s a welcomed trend that’s here to stay. Learn more about it below.

“The North Face Athlete Felipe Camargo is hoping to leave behind new routes for future climbers back home. In 2023, he traveled across Brazil with his brother, Bruno, where they filmed five significant first ascents—including the first 5.15a (9a+) in South America, Auto Retrato. Inspired by the energy and soundtracks of surf and skate films, this isn’t your average climbing film.” -The North Face via Youtube

👇Watch a Cadence-recommended Pod: The Kardashians have made a guest appearance here and there in Cadence - yes, they’re not endurance athletes, but this was too good of a message to skip over. Mel Robbins is a live coach - her and Khloe have a great conversation about how you’re 1 decision away from changing your life…VERY motivating watch.

✅Benjamin Button: The chase for youthfulness and life-extending opportunities is a longgg road. If you’re an endurance athlete, you might be closer to the fountain of youth than you think - scientifically, running can reduce your biological age. Every year counts.

✅Full Sends Only: Tour De France weaves through France on skinny highways, through the mountains - an open/public course in many ways. There’s been car crashes, bike pile-ups, spectator run-ins - but we’re pretty sure this is the first send OVER the peloton.

This isn’t the first time we’ve featured RAGBRAI, but we couldn’t NOT talk about the famous bike-across-Iowa-in-seven days ride. This past weekend, they just announced the 2025 route (it changes every year, so riders get to experience different small towns throughout the state during the ride), which is a huge deal! Check out the 2025 route HERE.

This event DOES tend to sell out - so if you’re interested in 2025 (you might catch us out on the hilly backroads of Iowa), we’d say sign up now & get your a*s on that trainer. You can sign up HERE.

• PUMA flop: We have so many questions; why are these $350, why do they look like those heel-less heels? WHY.

Fast Fashion is OUT, hand-sewn is IN: Youer is a women’s clothing brand that hand sews the entirety of their offerings. If you know of Melanzana in Leadville, CO (IYKYK), Youer has a very similar vibe and just as stellar of quality. Yes - these are on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.

✅Sad News out of CO Springs: Recently, at a Colorado Springs indoor track meet, a spectator was tragically killed from a rogue hammer that was thrown as part of a sanctioned field event during the meet.

Instagram post

✅Out of the World: In 1986, a group of insane endurance athletes decided - ‘hey, let’s run across a LITERAL desert for fun.’ The idea was wild, but wild enough to stick around all these years - expanding locations, crossing deserts around the world, in every sort of weather condition. None of these events are easy, but they’re all worth it.

Instagram post

✅Canine-thlon: These human-dog teams navigated an 80-meter swim, 3.5-kilometer (2.1 miles) bike and 2 kilometer (1.2-mile) run course in tandem, with each team required to stay within six feet (the length of a standard dog leash) of each other.

1. Chevron Houston Marathon Results

Tidbits

Ryan Hall’s Half Marathon Record Fall: A frigid day in Houston remarkably led to records falling and exciting races. Watch the recap below.

✅Coffee + Runners: Honestly, coffee + runners go together like fish + water. Fish can’t survive without water, and runners can’t survive without coffee (and water…we guess). Now, run clubs and coffee shops are collabing. We love it.

Instagram post

✅Long-Distance Skating: Don’t ask us why we’ve been in what we’re calling our ‘Wild Ice Skating Era’ - but here’s another post that feeds that. So pretty - and 10x better than some random indoor ice skating rink.

Instagram post

✅New Bucket List Adventure: Hut-to-hut hiking systems are really common in Europe; essentially, little cabins at which to rest your head between long day hikes, usually a looped or point-to-point system. This eliminates the need for camping equipment - lightening your pack for sure. Now that same style hiking system is coming to the Western United States.

Instagram post

✅(un)Lazy River: You know the guy - the annoying one that acts like the hotel gym is his personal workout space. This takes that faux pas to a totally other level. Would you swim laps in the lazy river? Is this considered open water swim practice?

Nike’s Launch: Nike’s half marathon for women in the mid-2000s was ICONIC. Tiffany & Co. necklaces as finisher medals…top of the line race swag…AMAZING. The race series was sunset, and now - has kind of returned. The After Dark Tour is a global event series for women with a featured stop in LA. Check it out/register HERE.

Instagram post

✅Icy Walks: This year, less than 10% of the Great Lakes is iced over - unfortunately, a new record for the 5 Lakes. Walking on the lake ice, at any time of the year, is incredibly dangerous. While the woman & dogs in the story below got off the ice unscathed - beware of the dangers. Shelf ice is gorgeous to observe and may appear solid, shelf ice is inherently unstable. In many places shelf ice cannot support a person’s weight. Sudden shifting and breaking of the ice make it especially hazardous. Never step onto shelf ice.

Instagram post

✅Ice Skating in the Wild: Yes, when it comes to adventurous wintery activities, there’s backcountry skiing, snow shoeing, fat tire biking - but have you heard of Nordic Skating? Essentially, it’s ice skating on frozen, unmaintained lakes ‘in the wild.’ Definitely a bucket lister if you like adventure + cold temps!

Instagram post

✅Frozen Bumper Cars: We can’t really say that white water rafting in the winter time is something that we’re going to be first in line to do - but MAYBE it is after seeing this video. Looks SUPER fun.

Instagram post

✅Coffee Gainz: Coffee + cycling goes hand-in-hand like a cold Coke + century ride. Specialized and the GOAT of espresso machines - La Marzocco, collab’ed to create a one-of-a-kind e-bike and espresso machine. We need this in our hometown. 😛

In it for the Long Run: Sure, a running streak is something even the most average runner can attain. But can you commit to running at least 8 miles a day, every day? Robert Kraft can - and he’s kicking ass at it.

Instagram post

✅Des Linden’s 2025: Much like Snoop Dogg, Des Linden is a woman of many, many noble side quests. Professional commentating, ultrarunning, bagging obscure world records & Strava KOMs - what can’t she do?

Instagram post

✅It’s about positioning: Your bike fit is EVERYTHING. Age groupers pay hundreds of dollars to get the perfect bike fit; elite athletes pay to ride in actual wind tunnels to fine tune their rides. So what is the most winningest bike fit? See this review of bike fits from 70.3 World Championships.

✅Winningest Shoe: adidas Adizero is quite literally - the fastest shoe on the market. With more than 51% of the top 50 T&F wins; adidas knows how to build fast shoes, and evidently - sponsor fast people. Read more HERE.

✅True Crime Crossover to Endurance Sports: We really don’t have accurate stats; but if you asked us what sport found the most dead bodies…we’d say runners. No question about it. When some wildlife techs were trekking through the Mojave Desert, they didn’t come across the endangered turtles they were looking for, but instead - found some human bones! EEK.

The Running List of Must-Do 2025 Races

1. IRONMAN 70.3 Waco: Joanna Gaines is the (un)official mayor of Waco, TX - and that makes Baylor University’s backyard the PERFECT family trip for a 70.3. Super cute town, lots of touristy things to do & a solid course. Registration opens soon.

2. IRONMAN Texas: The Woodlands probably isn’t at the top of your bucket list - but this DFW area event should be. It has GREAT spectator support, flat run and an outstanding finish line. Registration open now.

3. CLASH Miami: If you’ve never participated in a CLASH Endurance event - you’re REALLY missing out. Racing on a speedway, in the beautiful Florida weather - complete with a swim in a gator-less (and shark-free) body of water, what more could you ask for?

4. International Detroit Free Press Half Marathon: This half marathon really has it all. A bridge takes you over to (briefly) visit our Canadian friends, and then an underwater mile-long tunnel takes you back to Detroit streets for a scenic cruise to the finish. Registration open now.

5. The Spirit World 100: 10 hours, a bike & minimal support - can you make it the Mexico border and back, roughly 100 miles? Find out in October 2025. Registration opens soon.

6. Quebec Mega Trail: This 135 KM trail run through mountainous and challenging terrain will put your grit to the test. Registration opens now (will probably be selling out soon).

The Running List of Must-Have Gear

1. Satisfy Running: This ultra, high-end luxury running brand tops even Lululemon in prices. We don’t have the bank account to bankroll a shopping spree, so we can’t say first-hand if we’d like this gear, BUT the reviews are great, so if you’re feeling inclined…try it out!

2. Janji: This isn’t a new brand, but Janji continues to expand their line-up for activewear, so we’ve gotta include them in this list. It’s high quality, and comes in great & trendy patterns. Loveeee.

3. Backcountry Steals: We can’t say no a great endurance gear deal. This website sells samples of endurance brands like Cotopaxi and Smartwool. The selection rotates pretty steadily in terms of offerings, sizes, colors, etc.

4. Steep & Cheap: Backcountry.com sells all their ‘leftover’ items on Steep & Cheap. Fastest way to sort through the 1000s of offerings are by inputting your size - most of these items are closeouts, so they aren’t going to have every size.

Science Links Mitochondria & Muscle Strength

As we age, our muscles naturally lose mass, strength, and functionality, which can lead to fatigue and weakness beginning as early as our 30s. Recent studies indicate that our mitochondria—the cellular powerhouses that generate 90% of our energy—play a crucial role in this decline, contributing to reduced muscle function as we age.

A new way to support and improve muscle health as we age, Mitopure® by Timeline is clinically shown to meaningfully boost our mitochondrial health to improve muscle strength and endurance, without any change in exercise required.

Ready to feel stronger, for longer with Mitopure? {{publication_name}} readers can take 30% off their first month with code NEWSLETTER30 for a limited time. While supplies last.

70.3 World Championships: New Zealand FINALLY hosted the 70.3 World Championships this past weekend in beautiful and majestic Taupo. Jelle Geens & Taylor Knibb were crowned 2024 IM 70.3 Champs - hear what they had to say after they broke the tape:

✅Chilly Vibes: Winter ANYWHERE is, by nature, chillier than normal. However; endurance training in the cold (colder the better, according to studies), means extra gainz when race day rolls around. Read HERE how cold weather can help level up your aerobic capacity.

✅Broadcast Final Grades: With the advent of YouTube Live, Facebook Live and all the other ‘DIY streaming’ options that exist; it’s made watching endurance sports (actually) live, SO much more attainable. However, with these DIY streaming options - comes somewhat shaky film production. See how Slowtwitch grades IM performance in the film department.

✅Sydney Marathon: Sydney becoming the 7th Abbott Marathon Major might also mean that it’s now added to your marathon bucket list - making it just a bit longer (and let’s be honest - a LOT more expensive to pull off). Read EVERYTHING you need to know about the Sydney Marathon.

✅IRONMAN Wrapped: You spend enough time training - you might as well embrace the endurance side of your ‘Year Wrapped’. If you’re on Strava, you can also look at the number of hours and miles you committed to the pavement in 2024, it’s probably like a second full-time job.

Tidbits

Destination Racing: Sure, 70.3 Muncie is a flat & fast course, but doesn’t a destination race sound more enticing than plain-old Indiana? Australia is a destination that is probably on most bucket lists - but you should really consider adding it to your racing list. Read a recap of IRONMAN Australia here.

✅Outnumbered: Men outnumber women in IRONMAN events, 4:1. Why is that though? What barriers to entry exist in the sport (and racing) of triathlon? This a great and insightful study that looks at these important topics and offers suggestions on how to increase equity in the sport, both recreationally and in racing environments.

✅Davis, Virginia: Sure - everyone knows about Boulder and Bentonville as prime endurance sports meccas to live in. Now that the cat is out of the bag, the cost of living in towns like these are through the roof. Enter: Davis, Virginia - low cost of living, and perfect proximity to trails, slopes, rivers & creature comforts (sans a Starbucks). Check it out HERE.

✅USAT Financials: Every publicly-traded company and non-profit organization are required to submit annual reports/audits that detail how they spend money. Every Team USA affiliated organization falls into that category - including USA Triathlon. The biggest takeaway in this? USAT employees are underpaid for the immense value they deliver to the sport and paying members.

Instagram post

✅#BossLady Reindeer: Did you know that reindeer are the only species in which both males and females grow antlers? Knowing this info now, we might have been lied to all these years with the “male” reindeer that pull Santa’s sleigh. Male reindeer lose their antlers in winter months, which means Santa’s deliveries are actually made possible by lady reindeers. #Slayyyy.

✅Lauren Brandon Bows Out: Lauren Brandon had a 20-year swimming career before she decided to give triathlon a tri - and when that snowballed into a surprise professional triathlete career, she rode the wave for as long as it’d carry her. America’s Sweetheart announced her retirement last week and we’re going to be mourning that for a while. Much love, Lauren!

✅Professional Snowboarding/Skiing League: Shawn White is the GOAT of all GOATS - he had an astounding professional snowboarding career that he has now segued into creating a professional league for elite snowboarders & free skiiers. Super cool.

Instagram post

✅Barefoot Mishap: About 10 years ago, barefoot running was ALL the rage (remember those weird Vibram toe shoes that donned every bandwagon runner’s feet). Now - it’s not as popular, and certainly not popular at all with elite runners. A few weeks ago, during the NCAA Cross Country Championships, runner-up Habtom Samuel lost his shoe about 4K into the 10K race. Down, but never out. Read about the drama HERE.

✅Aww Doggo: Bernese Mountain Dogs originated in Bern, Switzerland to help as cattle herders - but as the years went on, and people came to love these big fuzzy creatures, they became more widespread, and thus - had more widespread career options. In the 1850s, the Bernese Mountain Dog was used to pull carts of cheese and milk to customers, especially in snowy times. If you’re lucky enough to have one of these doggos - here’s your reminder to let them enjoy the snowy months!
