Author: Adam Bratton Read Time: 2 mins Streaking can mean wildly different things depending on where you are in your life … true story, as a William & Mary undergrad, I was informed and intrigued of the student triathlon tradition that included “Streaking the Sunken Gardens” … I’ll let you guess if I completed this triathlon or not. But in the running world or more broadly, the endurance sports world, “streaking” refers maintaining consecutive days of activity. The total number of days is all dependent on how long you want to, or can, maintain your “streak”. The beauty of “streaking” is that you can set your own parameters, find motivation in your own way, and complete that goal on your own terms.
Guest Contributor: HPM Adventure Flag (Human Handler - Deanna Springall) Read Time: 5 mins Hi everyone, I’m the HPM flag and I just returned from an amazing trek through parts of Uganda and Rwanda. In honor of the countries I visited, my temporary name - instead of the boring English word “flag” – is Ebendera (in Luganda, one of the Ugandan languages) or Ibendera (in Kinyarwanda language, one of the Rwandan languages). I’ll answer to either one!
Guest Contributor: Patrick McGrady Read Time: 4 mins You've probably heard of the UTMB ... The 100+ mile trail race in Europe where people push their limit running a very long distance very fast. Not easy for us ordinary folk. Did you know that UTMB stands for Ultra Tour du Mont Blanc? The namesake, Mont Blanc is a mountain range that lies on the French, Italian and Swiss border. Chamonix, France is the most prominent town and primary start finish of this trail wraps around this range, stretching 103 miles with 30K+ elevation gain.
Guest Q&A: Thomas Lane Read Time: 4 mins We just hosted/raged at Psychoactive this past weekend and once again, it was one for the absolute ages!! In it's 4th year, this Last Runner Standing Event continues to tip toe the line between a highly competitive running event and a carnival style social event that rivals the best running parties you could dream of. Each year, this community gathering gains more notoriety and draws people from all over the East Coast (2025 saw 10 states represented on the participant list). This year, we introduced a first timer to the Human Powered Movement community and he made quite the impact on me personally, and the rest of the psychotic field.
