Hey friends!

For those that just joined, welcome! 

February was a big month across the board – work, writing, and training. 

Let’s dive in 🤝

KPIs from February 📆

• Miles ran - 214 miles

• Pounds lifted - 67K lbs

• Total steps - 570,189 (342 mi)

• Resting heart rate - 47 bpm

• Articles published - 10 pieces

• Adventures booked - 2 trips

  • California in March, London/Dublin in April

Fun fact: My favorite snack during this training block has been pitted dates from Trader Joes. They’re unreal. And even better with some peanut butter or honey. Highly recommend.

Aight, here’s a snippet from a piece I wrote and an update on Superset…

From Running the Bases to Running Marathons 💨

When you first start running, progress is hard to see and feel. 

That’s what makes it so frustrating. It’s also why so many new runners quit.

But when you run with a group, none of that matters. The running becomes secondary to the relationships and social connection you’re building.

That’s the power of joining a run club and “making it social.” It becomes less about running, and more about the people you’re surrounding yourself with.

Endorphins taught me that I can run to meet new people. Socialize. Be a friend. And experience the high that is sharing movement with hundreds of other runners.

As a result, I got faster, more consistent, and started to enjoy running in ways I didn’t think I could.

The people became bigger than the activity. And that made me fall in love with it even more.

Updates from Superset 💻

I’ve talked about Superset before. But for those that are new, we’re a lean NYC-based startup helping fitness coaches and personal trainers build, manage, and scale their business.

I thought it would be fun to share a few updates on the business (source). This is the last six months… 

• raised a new round of funding (shoutout Taylor)

• 6-figure net-new ARR + 30% raw MoM growth 

• tripled customer base, 5x’d coach gmv

• broke 100% net-revenue-retention (shoutout Jack)

• helped coaches add and manage 4K+ clients 

• helped clients complete 21K workouts

While the growth has been steady, we still have lots of work to do.

We’re cranking away at new features every month and positioning ourselves to double our user base by next quarter. 

Don’t worry though. We still make time for getting outdoors and having fun with the team 👇
