Once upon a time, she worked in the alterations department at Nordstrom. Now Oiselle staffer Beth McAlpine is using her skills to aid the local Seattle effort to make masks for the Downtown Emergency Services Center (DESC), which primarily works with the homeless population. We thank and salute you, Beth!

Planning a family can be tricky, whether you're working around running, your job, fertility, or, you know, a global health crisis. Oiselle athlete Teal Burrell knows the struggle, and shares her story.
VIRTUAL HUGS FROM FLESHMAN AND LESKO
Lauren Fleshman and Dr. Sarah Lesko "hung out" on Oiselle's Instagram Live. It was awesome. Here they share some books, podcasts, and a poem to make us think, give us comfort, prompt us to write, and help us feel like ourselves.

“I think most of the time we go through life trying to prove how brave and strong we are all, which is great. But there's something to be said for allowing ourselves to feel sad, scared and vulnerable.” Read how Oiselle staffer and run club leader, Brenda, is riding the waves of a twin pregnancy and a global pandemic.

"Here I was, in a horse stable, the day after International Day of the Woman, using a literal rag on my period. And you bet I did." Periods happen, but they don't stop us. Samantha shares her story of early gifts and eating trails.
WHO IS...CAROLYN?
When our team manager, Carolyn Gardner, first tried running, she felt like the odd woman out, and that she didn't fit in. Today, creating connection between women athletes is not just her job, but as she says, "my calling!"
