ABOUT
Hi there! Thanks for being a part of our women running community!
What has running done for YOU? I bet if you stop and think about it, you can rattle a few perks right off the top of your head!
After loosing my father, I knew I needed something healthy to cope with my grief. Running has been my therapy, it's brought me closer to friends and nature, it has kept me fit, it forces me to keep promises and make healthy choices. After running my first marathon (CIM), the California International Marathon, I was hooked on what it has brought me emotionally and physically.
Fast forward a few years, I looked high and low for a fun, colorful subscription box for women runners and couldn't find what I was looking for. Women want/need/desire fun prints, motivational pieces, nice gear and running merch they can use in their daily running routine. Using our retail connections (and our love for all things running), here we are, serving you up Fun & Functional running goods delivered right to your door.
Our mission is to inspire, motivate and make every woman runner feel AMAZING on the trail, track, road or race! Whether it be your first run/walk, 5k or marathon, I want YOU to feel strong and beautiful every step of the way.
PS: YOU CAN DO AMAZING THINGS!
