Coach Jacob was featured in the Columbia Missourian today and we couldn’t be more proud of the human he is!

Thank you to Jake Lorraine for writing such an awesome piece and for the photos!

We swear there’s a difference.

The “up all night with the baby” tired.
The “so much on my plate I don’t know where to start” tired.
The “running on caffeine and anxiety” tired.
The “back-to-back meetings” tired.
The “kids needed me, work needed me, everyone needed me” tired.

We KNOW that tired.

Moving your body changes it. That bad tired turns into something different

You’re tired from the workout but also feeling accomplished, and clear-headed.

We know you still have a full life of to-dos waiting for you, but now you have the mental space and strength to actually return back to it.

We got to host a crew from the University System earlier this week! A great group of people from all different departments, some getting to meet in person for the first time!

We love getting to be part of moments like this 🧡

If your team could use a midday reset and a break from their desk, we’d love to make that happen!

By now you've probably heard, or maybe you didnt, Coach Jacob completed his first ever ultra race! Jacob crushed 33 hours and 138 miles. 🤯

Watching Jacob push through something that big has reminded us why we do what we do, and honestly, it's got us inspired!

Running is often the first thing that pulls someone into fitness. It's just you, the pavement, and a goal. And we want to make it as easy as possible for you to take that first step.

So we built you something. 🎁

A free 4-week running program

2 days a week, built for any level, and equipt with coaching notes and pacing tips.

No gym required. No experience needed. No strings attached.

DM us your email and we will send it straight to you. Completely FREE. 🏃‍♀️

Jacob and the crew are officially off to Texas for the BPN Go One More Ultra, and Village Instagram is getting taken over!

Meet Wooly, one of Jacob’s crew members in Texas, and his one job is keeping the rest of us back in Columbia informed!

Expect live videos and updates on our stories starting April 10th.

The takeover lasts as long as Jacob does🤞

Follow us on Instagram to keep up with the chaos.

Let’s go Jacob! Go One More! 🏃
