An evening with hylo athletics
In early May, we linked up with hylo athletics to take the IMPACT for a spin along the River Dee.
Salomon Ultra Glide 3 - Trail Run
On a glorious (almost) Summer evening, we headed out towards Banchory, Aberdeenshire, where we linked up with Salomon on the trails to put the Ultra Glide 3 to the test with a solid group of runners.
Salomon’s max cushioned trail runner is perfect for long days on the trails delivering comfort from the first mile to the last, and although we were only out there for 11.5km through forestry tracks and some gravel paths, it was great to get a feel for the shoe on varying terrain.
Sunday Long Run [SLR] #4 with HOKA
For our SLR in April, we linked up with HOKA to put the Bondi 9 and their brand new Clifton 10 to test.
With 18k ahead of us, we set off from the store and heading towards the beach, we took in a peaceful lap of the River Don before heading back towards the city centre and finishing up with some well-deserved post-run smoothies!
