Hello again. As we announced in July, we have stayed up-to-date with the latest research and best practices, while also believing that outdoor running is an inherently safe activity to do while key safety protocols are followed. Since then...
We looked into every way to bring back our favourite event in 2021, and don’t have any great in-person options. Read more about our outlook. That doesn’t mean we can’t bring people together virtually and sweat out our summer...
We hope this message finds everyone safe, healthy and happy. The #1 question we are getting now is, “when are your events coming back?” We want to address this as directly as possible. While we sure wish we could hold live events, at...
The quest to give a more complete view of strength training and endurance sports continues! In my first two articles in this series, I discussed the impact of strength training on your ability to consume oxygen (no major impact) and the impact on...

With our cancelled Santa Pur-suit race, we don’t want to let the spirit die, and of course we want to support the YMCAs of Cambridge and KW. So here’s what we are going to do: FLASH UN-MOB. We are selling up to 100 Santa suits this...
