What a week.

Kicking things off early in race-week we hosted our regular Monday Shop Run, ensuring the momentum was in check. On Wednesday morning we were lucky enough to have Zoe Klein and Nike Running host a Runner's Yoga session in-store, focusing on limbering up, settling down and ensuring runners had their intentions set on the goal ahead. Sights then shifted to one of the weeks main events; our Melbourne Marathon Shake-Out Run, hosted with For The Kudos and attended by close to 100 regular customers, listeners, fanboys and fangirls, plus a handful of olympians for good measure. Those in attendance were treated to a 25 minute jog to keep the blood flowing and work through any pre-race nerves, followed by breakfast and coffee on us.

Race-day was one to remember. The weather couldn't have been better and with fields near on double the size of last year the energy on course was electric. Once the hard work was done, it was time to celebrate. Partnering with Hunter Athletics and Pulse Running we hosted our annual marathon after-party and it did not disappoint!

Thank you to everyone that made the 2022 Nike Melbourne Marathon Festival everything we had hoped for and more.⁠
