You all did amazing!
You found neighborhood hills, hiked mountains on vacation and chased FKTs. What a feat and what fun to watch your runs, your activities and your achievements roll in.


Some Housekeeping:

I still got tons of stuff to give away!
Lots of Swiftwick socks, Squirrel’s Nut Butter, a variety of cool Tailwind Nutrition fuel, and of course a brand new and super powerful Suunto 7 watch. There might even be some surprises coming your way. Watch your mailboxes in the coming days! Any Rock Candy gear you ordered from us will ship as well!

PS:
We’re already scheming a new virtual challenge for this Winter – stay tuned!
