First of all i’m happy to be back with a newsletter after 21 without. To my defense: I’t almost Christmas, i did a 32k trail race and organized “my” biggest community event with Irregular Practice so far. I didn’t find time nor the right amount of motivation for a newsletter in between. Well, the trail race was simply beautiful and the event went pretty good so i can’t complain and here we go - a newsletter is going out.
I really want to thank everyone of you for subscribing, reading and supporting this newsletter project and Runners Highest in general. 40.000 followers is just amazing and i hope we’re just starting!
Also i’m looking forward to January, will finally be able to attend Paris Fashion week and hope to not only see some good stuff but also do some good running. DM via Instagram when you or your brand is at PFW and you wanna meet!
Now it’s time for some good stuff, starting with some shameless self promotion for the event we did with Irregular Practice & New Balance. If you happen to be in the Frankfurt/Rhein-Main area, make sure to pay us a visit in the future. By the way Merchery supported our merch production and that went quite well! We’ll follow up with some good Runners Highest stuff, right?
Here we go:
1 IRREGULAR XMAS MILES
5k of running, a sprint and a quiz challenge, test shoes, a raffle, free longsleeves, charity bottles + free drinks & snacks. Sounds good? Yeah, that’s what almost 60 runners from the Frankfurt area thought for themselves and showed up to our biggest event so far. Thank you to New Balance for the support, first recap pics are online already:
2 AIME LEON DORE X NB RAINIER
Underrated silhouette, apparel going through the roof. Tedd Santis and Aimé Leon Dore know how to make retro-hiking look as cool as never before. Amazing.
3 DIADORA X DROMO V7000
Ok, something i’m really excited about as i’m waiting for a pair. The Diadora x DROMO V7000 does not only look good, it’s also made in Italy. That’s something you gotta appreciate and support imo.
4 MENTAL ATHLETIC ISSUE 1
Issue 1 of Mental Athetic’s print magazine is out now and looks good af. Waiting for my copy and hopefully you’ll get one where you live!
5 SOAR X PROTOLAB RAINCOAT
Is it for running or is it fashion? I don’t know yet but it’s hell of a rain jacket. SOAR keeps deliverin’! Photography by talented Rory Griffs!
6 A PERSONAL THANK YOU
That’s me - in a very happy form, after running 32k trail and managing to come through without any trouble. After a not-so-ideal race year with BIG names but not to great performances. I’m not sure if i’ll do another newsletter this year so let’s say see you in 2024 already! We’re building up things and running is great.
Stumbled upon your newsletter. Love the new perspective to me. Subscribed!
