Out & About
Charm City Run is the #1 ranked running store in the U.S. and that's because they've been dropping running knowledge on the local Baltimore community for the past FIFTEEN YEARS! Charm City Run has spent years celebrating the people of Baltimore and their athletic accomplishments through running programs, organized races, fundraisers and so on. Lily Trotters was super happy to celebrate CCR this past weekend for all of they've accomplished at the 15th birthday 5k.
Charm City Run now has eight locations in the state of Maryland and are a Lily Trotters retailer. Read more about their amazing story here.
3,000 half marathon runners + amazing views (including bald eagle sightings!) made for a pretty fantastic expo experience. We educated tons of runners on the benefits of compression. Many women loved the feminine touches offered in Lily Trotters' designs and said we were just the compression sock they've been dreaming about! We're calling this a 'win' and will be planning our next adventure with Vacation Races soon. Stay tuned!
With feathers freshly fluffed, her plumage perfectly puffed, our Lily bird has transformed into a stronger symbol for POWER CHICKS everywhere. When in the spotlight, you want to look your best, right? Why, she's even slipped on a pair of compression socks...to get her through her marathon days as the face of our growing brand.
Join Lily Trotters and Vacation Races in the National Park series, we’re racing through nine states and eleven spectacular U.S. National Parks in the months ahead. Our team of POWER CHICKS will be posting updates on Instagram along the trail! With the goal of promoting discovery, exploration, health, natural beauty, stewardship, well-being and creating memories, Vacation Races has partnered with the National Park Foundation to inspire runners worldwide to enjoy these national treasures. The race provides runners the experience of a lifetime with a series of events and challenges, including the option to go hiking and camping. A significant portion of each runner’s registration fees are contributed to the National Park Foundation.
Don’t forget to check out our partner The Dyrt, if you plan to camp and hike while there. They are a yelp site for camping and have great tools to help with planning. Register here and view the map showing the race destinations!
What's more fun on a chilly Sunday morning than being out with a big, colorful group of people and running for a cause? Lily Trotters was proud to be a sponsor for Roland Park Country School's 'Red Hot Run' - providing socks as part of prize packages for top runners in 12 categories. The race was managed by our retail partner Charm City Run, who ran the whole event seamlessly. We must mention that RPCS Head of School, Caroline Blatti not only won for top female overall, but also as top employee of the school. She puts the power in 'power chick'!
