I have beef with headphones. I love music when running. To be honest, one of the main reason’s I took up running in the first place was to get chance to listen to some new music, distraction free. 30 mins to an hour each day to bang out some old jams or discover some new […]
THE EVENT Here in New York, and probably amongst most of our global PavementBound community – spanning London, Manchester, Amsterdam and beyond – it’s safe to say that we tend to reside in the bubble of directional, product-led, trend-defining product that Nike has created for us. That’s just the way it is. Usually there isn’t […]
I’d never been a massive fan of energy drinks, bars or shakes and my hydration routine had always been a glass of water and then a glass of Vimto (the amber nectar for us Brits) after my run, and it had always worked quite well for me. When I started training for a half marathon […]
When I decided I wanted to start running I approached Charlie Dark, founder of London’s Run Dem Crew for advice on what was the best way to go about it, he quickly recommended Park Run. I looked them up online and found that I had a Park Run 20 minutes walk from my home in Crystal […]
Our friends at Orchard Street Runners just released this cool flick of the 2014 MIDNIGHT HALF The film, by Brian Vernor and Bob Geile, perfectly captures the spirit of night running in NYC – particularly for me the awesome silence you ‘hear’ around you in the city that never sleeps as you hit the pavement/sidewalk […]
Running apparel is undoubtably getting more tech and more futuristic looking each season. We have 3M reflective micro glass, taped seams, technical fabrics and a space age race against weight which can only be resolved when someone produces a pair of compression socks that have anti-gravity properties. Don’t get me twisted though, I love the ritual […]
December 23rd 2014, in Ruka, Kuusamo, Finland. It’s so beautiful outside that it feels like a fairytale, but it’s also -24C degrees with wind chill -31C. For me this is normal for winter, as I’m born and raised in Finland. But for many, as I’ve understood, this is far from normal. So how am I […]
Oh. My. Days. Never, ever, ever, have so many boxes been checked on a shoe for me. Ever. Not to too easily dispense the hyperbole, but these certified bangers put the HYPE in hyperbole so allow it fam! There’s not much I can say about this shoe that the pictures don’t do themselves except that […]
This weekend saw Europe’s elite come together on a snowy course in Samokov, Bulgaria to contest the European Cross Country Championships. Mud, sweat and tears. That’s what it’s all about!
Instagram is magic. If you don’t agree, we’ll never be friends. Sorry. That’s just the way it is. It’s one of those tech innovations that seems so simple, but has been a complete game changer. It’s, to a degree, democratised the world of illustration, art and photography and on a personal note has allowed me […]
