"I tried to get (shoes) really wet, took them on especially rocky terrain, hard climbs and fast descents to see how they’d hold up and would send the design team voice memos with all my thoughts and feedback. It’s exciting to see my perspective directly inform a product that will help all runners chase their goals on the trails.”
