A RUN- Down

Hey Nest readers, Osprey here 👋

I hope this message finds you well and still buzzing from our unforgettable journey into the heart of the RunningMan festival in Georgia. I know it's been almost a week, but trust me, the memories are still as vivid as ever. Buckle up as I take you through the wild ride that was Osprey’s first IRL meetup, RunningMan 2023!🏃🏾‍♀️

This marked Osprey's first in-person meet-up and activation with our incredible partner, All Day Running Co. We brought along five stellar members, two of whom were diving into full-blown activations. Brace yourselves for the highlights, because the only lowlight was a chilly 30-degree night that we all bravely weathered in our tents. 🥶

First and foremost, we had an absolute blast! The camaraderie among our diverse group of ladies was infectious, breaking barriers of age and background. It was more than just a run; it was an experience that brought us all together.

Dr. Jen Welter stole the show with an incredible and motivational talk at the learning lab. Not only did she drop some wisdom, but she also had us moving with football-inspired maneuvers. There's something undeniably powerful about combining movement and speech, and Dr. Welter nailed it. Her fans were electrified by her fierce attitude, and we left feeling inspired.🏈

DJ L3xi turned the world's biggest sauna into a dance party for the ages. Her mixes were nothing short of amazing, and she garnered well-deserved exposure. It was two hours of non-stop energy that left us wanting more.🎧

Of course, there were other special moments:

  • We joined forces with hundreds of cool people for epic runs.

  • Welcomed new Osprey members into the fold.

  • Forged new partnerships (and yes, Simplicity juice is officially LEGIT).

  • Braved multiple ice plunges (shoutout to Plunge for the invigorating 31-degree bath).

  • Relaxed in a giant sauna with steaming coffees in hand.

  • Listened to incredible speakers and were treated to hours of Harry Mack's freestyle brilliance.

  • Witnessed Jesse Itzler and Devon in their zones, uniting the community.

  • Experienced life-changing IV sessions from HONE.

  • Took unconventional showers in horse stalls.

  • Camped, indulged in s'mores, conquered slides, and shared laughter with the community that echoed through the night.

As we bid adieu to RunningMan 2023, we're reminded that for Osprey, this isn't a once-a-year thing—it's our way of life. Here's to more adventures, more laughter, and more unforgettable moments. Until next year, RunningMan!

Keep soaring
