Taking Things To Heart, Strava + New Belts
It’s been a stressful 72 hours. You know me, in this weekly email I share the good stuff, but I also like to share the challenges, too. I personally think it’s just as important, if not more to share the stuff that’s hard. Because good things are built on the back of adversity and challenges.
Reflection & Running Wild
Wow. 50 weekly emails.The half-century. raises bat. I've thoroughly enjoyed writing these emails each week to you, Runly fam. It's never felt like something I've forced myself to do, I really enjoy sharing the Runly journey with you - both the good and the bad. When I started writing these emails almost a year ago, Runly was a very different brand.
First Event, Strava + My Mission
It's been another big week here at Runly HQ! Controlled chaos is what I would call it! With the launch of a new collection, stock coming & going, logistics and upcoming events it's a busy time of year. But, I wouldn't have it any other way. Let's get into this week's newsletter.
Pink Collection, Community & AI
Well, I told you something new was coming! Yesterday morning at 9am we dropped our brand new PINK COLLECTION! It's been a while in the making. I've personally received over 150 comments, DM's and emails in the last year with Runly members requesting a 'pink version'. Yesterday it became a reality.
New socks + Big Announcement Next Week.
It's been another big week in the Runly-sphere. New products, planning for announcements, big stock orders and more. But firstly, we've had more than 1,000 runners join our email list this month. If that's you, hey! 👋 It's a pleasure to have you here as part of the Runly fam.
I Got Lost On A Mountain
I've had a pretty awesome three days. For the last few days I've been hanging out, working and exploring trails in the Victorian Grampians. Surprisingly, as a Victorian, and one who loves an adventure, it's my first time in and around the Grampians. Someone from the team put together a reel on Instagram of one of the trails which you can watch here.
Innovation, Events & New Stuff
I hope you had a refreshing New Year's break! It's the first weekly newsletter of 2024. It's fair to say I am beyond excited for what's to come this year. As you know, 2023 was a real breakout year for Runly. This year will be special. Let's get into it.
Thank You
In the final newsletter of 2023, I simply want to say thank-you. It's really been one of those 'pinch-me' years. One which has seen Runly rise from nowhere into a reputable brand in the running scene. I'd like to personally thank-you for your support. The Runly community is incredible and it's only going to get bigger, stronger and more vibrant in 2024.
