The Fleshman Factor, and Breaking the Mold in Athlete Sponsorships
Pro athlete sponsorship isn't new. But Oiselle's approach has always been different.
Collaboration Over Competition
The collaborative effort behind what ultimately led to my race in Minnesota is something I do not take for granted. There were a lot of people who checked in, showed up, and led by example for me this year - all of which amplifies my ability to continue believing in and showing up for myself.

Jen's story made me laugh, swoon and quite frankly I'd love an opportunity to run with Jen.
