If you ever marry someone who always wears a green ribbon on their neck– DON'T ASK THEM TO REMOVE IT. Aside from that advice, we recap the Baltimore Running Festival and Thomas's experience running in the Adios Evo 1 on a rainy day and Robbe's experience in the Nike Vaporfly 3. We're also in love with e-bikes now and we don't know how to make it stop (the love, not the bike).

By the way, SAVE THE DATE: We'll be doing a New Balance x BITR NYC Marathon shakeout run on Saturday, November 4, starting and ending at LAVAN Midtown (641 W 42nd St). Starts at 10 a.m., givewaways include custom hats and sling bags to the first few hundred people.

Easy 3-mile route with special guests Kofuzi, Matt Choi, Charlie Watson (aka @therunnerbeans), Tommie Runz & the PR Project, Carleth Keys, Alex Hermanson (@herm.runs) and more!
