On Wednesday, August 12th, runners across the country are coming together with New Balance to put the 1080v15 to the test, logging runs as we chase one shared goal: 24,901 miles - the distance around the Earth.

The Seattle running community is invited to join Super Jock ‘n Jill and Endorphins Seattle in demoing the 1080v15 on a 5k evening group run around Green Lake followed by free pizza, giveaways, and shoe and apparel raffles at the newly opened Easy Pace Brewing!

Run begins from Green Lake Park (across from Easy Pace Brewing) at 6:30pm, but arrive early to get your demo shoes and free commemorative event t-shirt (while supplies last).

Additionally, every attendee who RSVPs to the event on Strava by August 11th will be entered in a chance to win a pair of 1080v15s and New Balance apparel head-to-toe!

Run your mile. Help another girl run hers.

When you register for the All City Mile, you’re helping another girl stay in the sport.

We’re proud to support Bras for Girls, a nonprofit that provides free sports bras and breast health education to girls ages 8–18, removing barriers so they can stay active with confidence. Since 2017, they’ve supported more than 240,000 girls. A portion of every registration goes directly to Bras for Girls.

After the mile stick around for one of the most fun events of the day, the BRAton 4x400 Relay!

📍 Shoreline Stadium
📅 July 18

Oohwee last night was one for the books!!

BIG thank yous to @ben__watkins @susannaelaine and George from @newbalancerunning for coming out to Super Jock ‘n Jill for the Monday Night Run for a demo of the Ellipse! We had a delightfully sunny day to test out some fresh kicks around Green Lake and celebrate with some giveaways (and popsicles!) post-run 🌿😎 🍧

And of course, a BIG thank you to @briantmorrison , local author of Given to Fly, for coming out for the Monday Night Run and to speak about his new memoir! We had an awesome turnout and a blast hearing about his experience at the 2006 Western States and beyond. It was an honor to host a legend within the walls of Super Jock ‘n Jill. 💪🏼🏔️💛

And last but not least, thank you to everyone who came out for both of these events, and for sticking around to dive in, ask questions and support Brian and his new book. Given to Fly is now available to purchase on Amazon and at Barnes and Noble. Highly recommend you check this one out!!

And if you missed our event and are eager to learn more, you can catch Brian at @sevenhillsrunning this Wednesday, 5/13. Check out their page for more info! taken in Super Jock 'N Jill by @ben__watkins
