Oiselle Volee Team Spots Are Now Open!
Several years ago, I started my running journey. At the beginning I trained alone and ran a few local half marathons with my brother. As I became more serious about consistency and making sure I was properly training and wearing the right gear, I found the women-owned and ran clothing brand Oiselle. I fell in love with their Flyte collection and at the time, they had a small team that had limited openings twice a year. I remember being in nursing school in 2013 and waiting online for team spots to open so I could join.
Little did I know that the wonderful women who live in SE Wisconsin that were also on the team would end up being some of the biggest cheerleaders and supporters I've ever had. With their encouragement and companionship, I came SO CLOSE to breaking a 2 hour half marathon time (back when I used to be relatively fast!), ran two marathon and a 50K.
And now, during these weird COVID-19 times, these women are my lifeline when I need to vent, decompress, and socialize (via Zoom chat). I have made some of the best friends any woman could ask for through this group and am so grateful for their friendship.
Oiselle opened their team for new members. The membership fee is $120, which includes:
