Fleet Feet and Altra join as founding partners of new podcast for women runners. July 31, 2026. "Still Running: 10 Years Apart" brings expert-backed commentary for women figuring out hormones, ambition, training and motherhood. MISSOULA, Mont., CARRBORO, N.C., and DENVER, Colo. (July 31, 2026) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ - Fleet Feet, the nation's largest franchisor of locally owned and operated running specialty stores, and Altra, a leading innovator in performance running footwear, have joined as founding partners of "Still Running: 10 Years Apart," a new podcast helping women navigate the realities of running through every stage of life. Hosted by runners and moms Ashley Arnold and Rebecca "Trax" Trachsel, the show explores what it means to keep pursuing ambitious goals as bodies and lives evolve. The podcast explores topics ranging from hormones and recovery to pregnancy, postpartum and perimenopause. Through expert interviews and candid conversations, it offers practical, evidence-based guidance while creating a space where women runners can feel understood and supported. "Running has always been about more than miles; it's about having people in your corner," said Tiffany Lee, senior director of performance marketing and partnerships. "This podcast brings important conversations to more women, and our locally owned and operated stores give runners a place to continue them. Whether someone is looking for the right footwear, training for a new goal or simply looking for a community to run with, we're proud to help women feel supported through every stage of their running journey." About the Hosts Arnold is an ultra-trail runner, podcast host and brand marketing leader who previously led brand marketing at Fleet Feet. She is currently returning to running postpartum while training for mountain races. An empty-nester with ten years on Arnold, Trachsel is a road marathoner and content creator with over 29,000 Instagram followers, navigating a perimenopausal stage of high-performance running. The two met during overlapping work with a running club in 2025 and discovered they share many of the same questions about running. "'Still Running' exists because women runners deserve better conversations about their bodies, their goals and the seasons of life that shape both," said Arnold and Trachsel. "Women runners are constantly adapting, questioning, pushing and trying to understand what our bodies are telling us. We're here to make those conversations honest, funny, useful and backed by people who actually know what they're talking about." Episode Content New hour-plus long episodes will publish twice monthly and feature host conversations, expert interviews and listener "phone-a-friend" segments covering topics including fueling, injury prevention, training through hormone changes and returning to running after time away. Fleet Feet and Altra's partnership will support the podcast's launch, production and community events. "There is a lot of positive conversation right now about women maintaining strength and vitality as they move through different life stages, and it's a conversation that Altra fully supports," said Reyna Alishio, head of global marketing at Altra. "We're so excited to be playing a role in bringing this podcast and topic to life, and to women runners specifically."

FloSports, HOKA & Fleet Feet launch multi-year content program for the next generation of fans. FloSports has partnered with HOKA and Fleet Feet to launch a content and community program designed to celebrate performances, emerging talent and fans. Jul 30, 2026 by FloSports Staff AUSTIN, TX - (July 30, 2026) - FloSports today announced a multi-year partnership with HOKA and Fleet Feet to launch a first-of-its-kind content and community program that will connect millions of running fans with the athletes, stories and experiences shaping the future of Track & Field. The collaboration will blend premium editorial coverage, original video programming, social storytelling, retail activations and immersive fan experiences into a unified platform that follows elite athletes from today's rising stars to those taking the biggest stage in Los Angeles in 2028. The announcement comes after an exciting USATF Outdoor Championships this past weekend, where HOKA athlete Nia Akins captured her third outdoor U.S. 800m title (fifth national title overall) with a season-best 1:59.25. Nate Mountain claimed his first U.S. steeplechase title in his professional debut for HOKA, edging the field with a dramatic dive at the finish just six weeks after placing ninth at the NCAA Championships. Rather than activating around isolated moments, the collaboration is designed to celebrate breakthrough performances, spotlight emerging talent, and bring fans behind the scenes to strengthen the connection between the sport's biggest brands and the communities that fuel it. "The road to the Olympics isn't built over a few weeks every four years, it's built every day through the athletes, coaches, races and communities that define this sport," said Ryan Fenton, GM of FloTrack. "This partnership creates an entirely new platform for telling those stories. Together with HOKA and Fleet Feet, we're investing in the sport for the long term while giving fans unprecedented access to the athletes and moments that will define the next generation of track & field." "At HOKA, we believe the future of running is shaped through the communities, athletes and stories that inspire us all to lace up every day. This partnership gives us the unique opportunity to tell more of these stories in new ways. We hope to bring fans closer to athletes and moments that define our sport and create more opportunities for runners at every level to connect and find joy in movement," added Allie Tsavdarides, Vice President of North America Marketing, HOKA. "Every day in our stores we see how an athlete's story can inspire someone to take a first step, join a local training program or see themselves as a runner," said Joey Pointer, President and CEO of Fleet Feet. "Together with FloTrack and HOKA, we look forward to connecting the excitement of elite competition with local communities that help more people find their way into the sport." At the heart of the program is an always-on content strategy designed to keep fans connected to the sport through the lead up to Los Angeles. FloTrack will produce a series of original features showcasing HOKA athletes and NIL ambassadors through behind-the-scenes access, day-in-the-life storytelling and Workout Wednesday content that provides authentic insight into elite training while supporting HOKA product launches. FloTrack will also provide editorial and social amplification around athlete and NIL signings, extending the visibility and impact of each announcement through trusted storytelling. Central to the partnership will be a series of meaningful in-person experiences that connect fans with the sport where they live. FloSports, HOKA and Fleet Feet will host watch parties for marquee competitions throughout the year with FloTrack producing highlight videos, editorial coverage and dedicated social content that captures the energy of each stop and extends its reach nationwide. Additional moments to elevate the partnership and the sport will be introduced during FloTrack's coverage of National and World Championship events, as well as Olympic qualifying moments, where HOKA and Fleet Feet will be integrated into the team's expert analysis, previews, interviews, results and athlete storytelling.
