RUN 4 ALL WOMEN

RUN 4 ALL WOMEN

Oiselle and Run 4 All Women are absolutely thrilled with the collective enthusiasm for the Womxn Run the Vote Relay! This virtual relay taking place September 21st - 27th, 2020 has already raised more than $230,000 for Black Voters Matter. You can learn all about the relay and register for this historic event here (last day to register 9/17).
 
We have been incredibly honored to partner with Run 4 All Women, who have done much heavy lifting and behind the scenes work to make this relay happen. Run 4 All Women ambassadors have been doing the work of empowering others through fitness since Alison Mariella Désir founded the organization in 2017. In support of their collective positive impact and the community benefit of their work, 20% of all Vote Shop sales will go directly to Run 4 All Women.
 
We encourage you to learn more about Run 4 All Women and watch this chills-inducing documentary on their legendary run in 2017 that raised over $150,000 for Planned Parenthood.

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.
