We can’t wait to yoga, run and party through Vancouver’s beaches, mountains and city streets with you again this summer. Last year, we created an app to help you with all things half-marathon related: training, a city guide to help you maximize your weekend in Vancity, run playlists and more. We listened to your feedback that you loved the app and that you wanted even more features added for this year’s event.

Drumroll please…

Please meet our brand new SeaWheeze app! We have added a ton of cool stuff designed to make your SeaWheeze 2013 experience as good as, oh, I don’t know, eating Oreo ice cream and getting a foot massage at the same time (*Editor’s Note: Alexis’ creepy idea of a good time does not reflect the views of this blog or 99% of the human population).

Let’s get into the nitty gritty of what features have been added to the app.

makeover alert: my training section

We heard you say that you wanted to track your progress up to the big day. Now you can check the boxes of which runs, yoga and cross-training you've completed per week and the app will compile your progress for you.

We’ve also added new training videos featuring this year's SeaWheeze trainers (runners Jenn Howard-Brown, Chris McClung and Blue Benadum and yogi Kerri Kelly) so you can get instruction on-the-go.

let’s get physical accountable

You can now share and interact with friends on Facebook who are also training – you can see their progress and they can see yours.

Things just got serious.

say cheese!

There's a Photo Booth with different frames so that you can share all your SeaWheeze memories with friends on Facebook, Twitter and more. There’s also a live Instagram feed of anything hashtagged #SeaWheeze so you can keep up with all the yoga.run.party times happening during the weekend!

get down on it

Playlists are now listed in the main navigation for easy reference.

My apologies in advance for multiple Mariah tracks...I was surrounded by butterflies and wearing denim cutoffs when I put them together.  #notreallysorry

live goal crushing

We will now be publishing live finishing times via the app on race day. These will still also be offered via desktop and tablet. Get those goals!

it’s the freakin’ weekend

Weekend events are now broken out by day to make weekend planning easy breezy.

We are counting down the days until August 10^th! This app is available in the App Store as of May 17^th. What part of the SeaWheeze weekend are you most excited for?

The runner's hello.

 
It is, so far, my favourite discovery about running.
It's the nod, smile or wave you receive from (or dish out to) another runner coming your way.
No matter what kilometre you are into your run, it’s a universally understood, silent, ‘hey I think you’re awesome’ from a complete stranger.
It’s a reminder that I’m not alone and that there are a lot of people cheering for me.
It’s an unwritten code.
When it felt like 40 degrees out and I was only half way through my training run, it's what kept me going.
It's the push I needed to get me across the SeaWheeze finish line in Vancouver.
It's the reason I set a new goal to complete five halfs in the next five years.

Keep on running and keep on nodding friends!

No matter how hard we try to trick ourselves into brighter, longer days there is no denying that the mornings and evenings are getting darker. Since low-light scenarios pose safety concerns for runners, we asked Queen St West ambassador, Heather Gardner, for five tips for keeping safe when running at dusk and dawn.

1. always carry a cell phone and identification

This tip is number one no matter what time of year you run. Always keep your cell phone and driver's license on you while out running. Whether you need the help or a fellow runner does, knowing you can make the call brings peace of mind and keeps you safe. Consider adding an ICE (In Case of Emergency) contact to your phonebook. That way if something does go wrong a stranger will know who to call for you.

2. choose a well-lit route

Run in areas that are well lit and always bustling with other runners. This means saving those reclusive, isolated routes for daylight, and sticking to the main streets when it’s dark. Also, consider rocking a head lamp. It's perfect for mid run dance parties but also great so that other traffic on the road or sidewalks will see you. You'll also be able to better identify uneven surfaces (hey, sometimes even the best of us get tripped up).

3. be seen

There’s more to putting together a great run outfit than just simply something that matches. Wear colours that will let cyclists, drivers and even other runners and pedestrians know you’re there. Whites, yellows and even shades of orange will have you being seen. Lots of run gear has reflectivity built right in so be strategic about how you’re layering it. Make sure  reflective taping remains visible. You can also consider adding your own reflective strips. When it comes to staying safe, the more the better.

4. keep it close to home

Running at dawn or dusk is not the time to try a new route. Rather than a big 10km route, why not do a double 5km? Stick close to home should you need or want to stop. This also ensures that you’re familiar with the neighbourhood and every crack and corner on your route.

5. join a group!

As they say, there's strength (and motivation and fun) in numbers so if you’re happy running as part of a group, it’s definitely safest (need a group? Check in with your local lululemon store). If a group just ain’t your thang…let a few people know that you’re heading out, the estimated duration of your run and where you're going.

6. unplug

Though some of us rely on blaring tunes to keep us distracted from the burning in our quads, if you're running alone in the dark it's a good idea to leave your headphones at home.  Another option if you can't run without music is to have it playing out loud, instead of wearing earbuds (though you'll need to be okay with your guilty pleasure playlist being shared with the world). Either way, being in tune with your surroundings is key. *Special thanks to our guests on Facebook for suggesting this additional safety tip!

Stay safe out there runners! Any other tricks for running safely in low-light?

You know you’re hardcore when you live in New York and declare your love for winter running. Meet Brooklyn Showroom ambassador and Hot Bird Running co-founder, Jessica Green and learn how she went from law degree to running the streets – and everything else in between. 

Travel bag, meet my foam roller! The Grid by Trigger Point. My PT introduced me to this travel-friendly and apartment-friendly foam roller and now I actually roll it out on the road and at home. It's also a great conversation piece and half-time activity during our Sunday football parties.

A perfect, lightweight spring/fall/winter windbreaker for numerous types of weather conditions with tons of reflective gear to keep my clients and me stay safe at night and during early morning runs. Pockets for my gloves, phone, keys, money and a feminine cut to keep me looking fresh and on top of my running game. (Ed’s note: this jacket is from last year but is quite similar to the Run: Nothin’ But Run).

Birks. Heaven. Period. Plus, a must if you are a born and bred Oregonian, which I am! Go get yourself a pair.

I've never had a problem with these bad boys. They can go the distance and beyond without saggy, chaffing or riding up over my knee.  As a running coach, the back pocket is also really key because I have to travel and coach workouts with my phone and the pocket is big and sturdy enough to keep it from bouncing around.

My feet have never been happier since purchasing my own set of melt balls after a life-changing Melt Class with Zoe Levine two years ago.  Every runner NEEDS a set of these.

During the sweaty months of summer and wet months of winter, my money, phone and subway card all need a little extra help in the dry department with as little added bulk as possible. I don't leave home without a Ziploc foldable sandwich bag.

get to know steve

Steve the Pace Beaver is a four-wheeled, buck-toothed furmobile (read: vintage 1960 food truck). He's been riding the streets of Toronto to and from local run clubs, parking along popular trails and paths through the downtown core, and leaving smiling and somewhat perplexed faces wherever he goes.

why a beaver?

A pace bunny is that bunny-ear-wearing runner who sets a steady pace for distance races, so that runners of varying levels can reach their goal times and keep track of their race pace.

Think of Steve as the Canadian spin on a pace bunny - setting the pace for Toronto's run scene this fall.

best steve moments

Steve has created spontaneous cheer stations along Lakeshore and dance parties at every red light. He's been to early morning and late night run clubs, and he's shown us the best training routes tucked behind skyscrapers and busy city streets.

We've product tested technical run outfits with runners so they can focus on achieving their personal best. Last weekend at the Toronto Marathon, we even let our tail down and cheered loud and proud through rain and shine until the last p̶e̶r̶s̶o̶n̶ marathoner passed the 31km mark at our epic cheer station.

When someone emails you from across the country saying you made their brother's day with a just a pair of arm warmers and words of encouragement during a long cool run, you know you're onto something good.

Look for Steve the Beave out in the Toronto community and online at @lululemonCAN. Tag your photos and tweets with #pacebeaver to connect with Team Steve and let us know where you're running - maybe you'll spot our purple hubcaps on the move.

Fall is a time of both nostalgia and renewal. It’s also a time of many marathons – and with these two themes on the horizon we thought the time was right for a fresh playlist, yes?

We’re clearly not the only ones reflecting because the new music out right now is something of a mid-2000’s renaissance. The Killers, Bloc Party, Young Jeezy, Stars…all we need now is for The Postal Service to come out with some fresh tracks and the revival will be complete (while we’re thinking of it, that’s not such a bad idea, Ben Gibbard *cough cough*). The best part is that along with all of these old faves, the trend in new music has a suspiciously 90’s feel. I think it’s time for me to rescue my Sophie B. Hawkins t-shirt because I smell a movement.

run into fall marathon playlist

1/ grimes - genesis
Warning: this song is kind of weird but in the BEST way. Originally from Vancouver, Grimes went to university in Montreal, enrolled in some Russian Literature classes (honestly, I can’t make this stuff up) and discovered along the way that she’s a musical wunderkind. Take that, Crime & Punishment!

2/ the killers – flesh and bone (jacques lu cont remix)
Brandon Flowers and the boys are back with yet another album filled with soaring rock anthems. They’re touring this fall through North America…go see them if you get a chance. It’s worth it.

3/ air traffic controller – you know me
The best new female voice in indie music since Jade Castrinos came bursting into the mainstream singing “home is where I’m with you” for Edward Sharpe (and 100,000,000 YouTubers). This group is going to get up to big things, mark my words.

4/ pretty lights – hot like sauce
Samples from every genre of music are layered over a sweet beat to create a curiously enjoyable sound (Pretty Lights kind of remind me of some of the old trip-hop groups from the 90’s). This song is perfect for grinding out a long hill in the middle of your race.

5/ moon boots – got somebody
This is one of those songs that doesn’t seem monumental when you first hear it…and yet it gets under your skin and makes your iTunes “Top 25” list out of NOWHERE. Have I mentioned the 90’s are back?

6/ calvin harris – sweet nothing featuring florence welch
The reigning king of electro collaborates with everyone’s favourite ethereal rock star, Florence Welch. This track kind of feels familiar but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing; filled with soaring vocals, sweet beats and bass drops, “Sweet Nothing” is perfect for finding an extra gear just when you need it.

7/ miguel – kaleidoscope dream
“Sure Thing” was the come-out-of-nowhere surprise hit of 2011. Miguel has gone back, studied his dad’s Isley Brothers records and made a really badass new album. Jump on it.

8/ stars – hold on when you get love and let go when you give it
Canadian duo Stars are back after a hiatus and they sound just as sweet (and a wee bit less emo) as before. Put this puppy on when you seen the finish line – your heart will rise right out of your chest.

9/ muse – madness
I’m not sure if I’m excited about the new Muse album or if they’ve jumped the proverbial leap into self-indulgent prog-rock territory (and not in the awesome Meatloaf way). That being said, just because it’s not “Stockholm Syndrome” doesn’t mean that it sounds like Savage Garden (or does it?!) I’ll let you be the judge.

Getting race ready for the half-marathon in SanFran this weekend? Check out our Grant Ave store event, A Night in Neon, to celebrate all those kms you've clocked.

Imagine waking up one day and finally paying attention to that voice in your head that’s been telling you “this isn’t right”. After a stressful eleven years in the finance industry, Lincoln Square store educator, Jill, called it quits on her 9-5 to pursue a healthier and happier life. Watch her video and read on to learn a little more about this inspiring gal.

I highly recommend Hal Higdon's book for first time marathoners as I used it last year for my first marathon. The book has a wide variety of training schedules for all different levels.

I absolutely love the Nike+ app on my iPhone because I can share my runs through Twitter and Facebook!

Hands down the most comfortable bra to run in. Fits perfectly, chafe-resistent and moisture wicking!

They were giving these babies out at the SeaWheeze and I fell in love with them. Plant-based, delicious, easy to digest for optimal energy and HEALTHY.

I never leave for a run during the day without my sunglasses. I love being incognito to get into my zen mode.

I never know where I am going to end up in the city... so I always carry my Metrocard just in case I get carried away and end up in Brooklyn!

I love how these stay in place and are moisture wicking. It basically doesn't feel like I am wearing anything at all!

This balm is all natural and vegan too!

Absolutely a must when running long distances so you don't get all chafed and sore.

Ah-mazing. I have a lot of hair and this headband keeps my hair and sweat off my face.

I love this medal as a reminder of crossing that finish line in the beautiful city of Vancouver. I was so proud to run that race as a part of the lululemon family.

This guy takes on mile after mile with his best buddy at his side – I mean look at that furry face, could you leave Tom behind? Watch the video and read below to learn more about this dynamic running duo featuring our Soho store ambassador, Tom Cripps and his canine sidekick, Footyboots.

I wore them for about eight years. I don't wear them anymore. I made myself a guinea pig for running form and quickly realized that orthotics don't make the problem go away they just move the weakness elsewhere. With proper running form I now run farther, faster, more frequently and injury-free.

Sweat vs Silver.

Not mine. Belongs to Footyboots. He is at his happiest when playing with the frisbee and when he is happy that means no humans are in immediate danger of his crushing look of disapproval.

The novelty moustache is for me to wear when Footyboots is upset with me. He can't recognize me when I'm wearing it. Something about being colorblind…

Light as air. Yeah yeah.

Used to massage knots out of my legs, namely my left lower IT band. Grrr…

Clearly I don't like complex stories…

A couple of ultra-marathon mementos. (Ed's note: Psh. No big deal...)

Montreal is a city known for vibrant summers, cold winters and for being (in my opinion!) one of the coolest cities in Canada. This “cool” factor showed up literally for over 27,000 people who ran the Oasis Rock ‘n’ Roll Montreal Marathon this past weekend, with race day temperatures hovering around 11C and brisk winds that forced spectators to keep moving to stay warm.

In true Montreal spirit, the lululemon crew from our four Montreal stores bundled up in Scuba Hoodies and got ready for the day in Old Montreal, just past Kilometre 16. We hustled to fill as many cups with water before the first runners made it up the hill at Place Jacques Cartier and around the corner to us, and we kept on going right until the last runners passed us by.

giving thanks

As we handed out cup after cup of water, I was blown away by the amount of runners that stopped for that split second and took the time to thank us. Us?, I thought. Really? What we were doing was in no way as inspiring or tough as what they were up to that morning. But over and over, they thanked us - some gave us a little cheer, others mouthed a quick “Merci”, and many acknowledged us by taking a deep breath and picking up their pace.

It reminded me that at the end of the day we all need some support to achieve our goals – as much as we may want to just do it all ourselves. And that morning, at Kilometre 16, we were able to support the thousands of runners passing us by with something as simple as a glass of water and a smile.

the biggest cheer of all

As the clean up crews came by and the race drew to a close, we waited to make sure the last of the runners had passed us by. And we made sure we gave them the biggest cheer of all. With arms raised to create a little tunnel, every one of those runners gave us a little smile, stopped walking and then ran on through.

winter running, anyone?

Montreal, thank you for braving the elements and running your hearts out last weekend! If cool weather running is your thing, many of our stores have run clubs that continue all year. Find out more on your local Montreal store's calendar.

When faced with an injury halfway through training for her first race, Robson Store educator, Cayley, made the  decision to listen to her body and be a stand for the 7500 other runners who would need her support that day.

sign me up!

When I first heard about the SeaWheeze, I just knew it was something I had to be a part of. I’d never been a runner before but if there was one race out there to inspire me to lace up my shoes and hit the trails, it was this one. I signed up without really thinking about what I was committing myself to (21.1 is about 16 more kilometers than I’d ever run before) but I had caught a serious case of FOMO (fear of missing out) and there seemed to be only one cure.

Of course, after hitting that “register” button, I had all the reasons not to run, catch up to me – I’d never been in a race before (read: I’d never run regularly before at all) and I had no idea how to train for a half marathon. Lucky for me, I was invited to be a part of a special training group with Mike Porter, one of our amazing ambassadors at the Robson store. For three months, each of the five runners in the group would be receiving a weekly training program tailored to their run experience and their goals, as well as coaching, advice and support from Mike.

from 0 to 21.1 12k

I hit my training hard and fast; within just a few weeks I was running distances that I had never thought were possible for me. When I finished my first ever 12km run, I had such a sense of pride and accomplishment. After that moment, heading out for my runs was no longer a chore. So when I started to get a sharp pain in my left knee on one of my runs I started to get a little worried – running was something I had just started to enjoy and I wasn’t ready to give it up yet.

bottom line: listen to your body

When I told Mike about what I was feeling, the support I got from him was incredible. He sent me videos of exercises to try, kept me accountable to spinning as my cross-training so I didn’t lose fitness and recommended several different clinics for me to visit. Over the month of June, I saw a physiotherapist and a registered massage therapist more regularly than I saw some of my friends but the progress I was making was pretty slow. After a month off of running, I had a tough decision to make – I desperately wanted to run the SeaWheeze (especially after I’d convinced my sister and one of my best friends to run it with me) but I was still feeling that sharp pain in my leg and time to properly train was running out. I held off until the last possible minute but eventually recognized that I needed to give my body the time it needed to heal (which I’m still working on) without the pressure of a deadline.

this is my SeaWheeze

Once I made the decision to not run the SeaWheeze, my FOMO started to flare up again – I didn’t want to miss out on a weekend that I’d been looking forward to since I’d signed up in January. I stayed involved with the race through the Robson store and I was beyond excited to be at the Vancouver Convention Center on August 11th to cheer on the start and finish of the race. Once I had made my tough decision, I channeled my training efforts from running a half marathon to prepping for 7500 enthusiastic high fives.

i’ll runcouver again

I may not have been able to run in the main event this year but I certainly didn’t miss out. I learned a lot from my SeaWheeze experience – what I’m capable of and how to listen to and take care of my body. I know that I accomplished a huge goal by just learning to enjoy heading out for a jog, which is something that I’ll have forever. At the moment I’m focused on getting my knee in a good spot so that I can runcouver my favorite trails again soon. SeaWheeze 2013, here I come!

 It takes a lot to recognize when your body needs a break – and even more to overcome your own ego when faced with a setback. We think those who can’t run should cheer (or get involved in the race in some other way). How have you reacted in the past in the face of injury?

vancouver bike rave

Music, lights, dance parties and bikes, need we say more? This is becoming an annual summer event here in Vancouver and we’ll be sure not to miss it next year. Just watch this video from the 2011 bike rave and you’ll be hoarding glow sticks ‘til June.

pari rollers

If you thought rollerblading was out, you were wrong. Every Friday (all year round since 1994) a gang of skaters, better known as the Pari Rollers, hit the streets of Paris for a 3-hour, 30K night ride. The event has grown so big (attracting as many as 35 000 people) that the French police became involved to ensure safety for both participants and spectators. The ride starts at 10PM and is suited more towards advanced skaters (cobblestone roads = danger)!

firefly run

Get your glow stick on (literally attach them to your bodies… everywhere!) and light up the night with this fun, touring 5k/10k race. This event promises to be a sight to see (you’d have to be blind to miss it) boasting live entertainment, costume contents and ‘amazing visual effects’. Chicago, San Jose, Atlanta and Houston, you’re in luck ‘cause the Firefly Run will be lighting up your cities in the next couple of months!

boston midnight marathon bike ride

We’re sure you’ve heard of the Boston Marathon but have you heard of the Boston Midnight Marathon Bike Ride?! Every year, while die-hard runners are fast asleep resting for what will surely be the race of their lifetime, hundreds of bikers are pedaling their hearts out and breaking in the route. As tradition stands, the mob of bikers take the last train out of the city and then make the 30-mile trek back in.

san francisco midnight mystery ride

Okay gumshoe – this one is for you! On the third Saturday of every month a meet-up location for a nighttime ride is announced on the San Francisco Midnight Mystery website. The group converges at 12:00AM and sets off, following a leader to some undisclosed mystery location. Like a well-kept secret, the website doesn’t reveal much more than this so you’ll have to give us an update if you make it to one of these rides!

Calling all other creatures of the night – what are your favourite not-to-be-missed night events? Ps. Be safe out there! Reflective gear is a must.

13.1 things to pack for a destination 13.1 miles

6 more sleeps. Eeep! Rob the TackleBox trainer has been getting us prepped with his training program designed for personal bests – now all that’s left to do is get some good sleeps, eat some carbs and pack your bag. If you’re from Vancouver, there isn’t quite as much pressure to pack …but if you’re coming from out of town, you’ll want to put a bag together with all of the essentials you need for having the best weekend of your summer. Here are our suggestions for the 13.1 not-so-obvious things you should remember to pack for your SeaWheeze weekend.

1. Pacifica Perfume – Vanilla Vera Cruz
Pair a yummy-smelling body spray with dry shampoo and oil-absorbing sheets and you’ll be good to go for patio time after your run. Vanilla Vera Cruz is a perfect summer scent: light, sweet and a little bit sexy.

2. Rocky Mountain Sport Epsom Salts
Once you’ve given your all on the SeaWheeze course and you head back to your home or hotel, treat your tootsies to a little TLC with an Epsom salt bath. Epsom salts are an easy and affordable way to rejuvenate tired feet and legs post-race.

3. Women’s No Show Ultimate Sock
While a big training program is important, having a successful run is ultimately determined by the little things. Fight the battle against blisters with socks that stay put and breathe.

4. Philosophy Purity Facial Cleanser
SeaWheeze weekend is going to be a jam-packed festivus of good times. This cleanser is the MVP of the toiletry bag: it cleanses dirt, sweat and makeup away without stripping your skin and comes in different sizes for easy travel.

5. Energy Gels
Hunger pangs are a sworn enemy of personal bests. Vega products will be on the SeaWheeze course but if you’ve been training with a different brand bring it along (it’s a good idea to try gels once or twice before race day to make sure they suit your tummy).

6. Om Tote
Picking the right bag to pack for a weekend away can make-or-break how simple (or arduous) the task can be. The Om Tote has plenty of storage capacity to fit everything you need and has compartments to keep all your essentials organized.

7. Burt’s Bees Coconut Foot Cream
Your feet have been working hard and they deserve a little VIP treatment. This foot cream is our absolute favourite – it smells delicious, is super-moisturizing and is completely natural.

8. Groovy Thong
Much like socks, wearing the right pair of underwear on your big day is a decision not made lightly. The Groovy Thong is comfy and won’t, ahem, “ride up” so you can stride ahead without a worry.

9. Alba Botanical SPF 25 Lipcare
Many a time we have slathered on sunscreen only to forget about our lips…and let us tell you, it’s a real bummer when the sun goes down. We love Alba’s SPF 25 lipcare; it is moisturizing, a little glossy without being sticky and we have yet to burn our pout with this stuff on.

10. Clean & Clear Oil-Absorbing Sheets
On fast and furious weekend adventures, sometimes we need to get ready in a hurry. In the summertime, these oil-absorbing sheets are a girl’s best friend – post-race, they will save your life.

11. Deja Vu Scarf
Having a scarf to wear on planes, after yoga classes and on drafty summer nights is absolutely key. We love the Déjà Vu Scarf – the cotton is uber-soft and it’s big enough to wrap around twice. An added bonus: bring this scarf to the beach or SeaWheeze concert for a cozy mini-blanket.

12. Klorane Oil-Suppressing Dry Shampoo
Sometimes when patio hour calls we don’t have time to head back and shower post-run. This dry shampoo makes oil disappear without making our hair ashy or grey looking (plus it smells delicious).

13. Bodyglide
Some people are into Bodyglide and some people aren’t….but it can be a nice thing to have in your bag just in case you feel a case of chafing coming on.

13.1 Apothic Red
Red alert: once you’ve come home from your day of SeaWheeze activities, we think it’s critical to toast to your achievements with a glass of full-bodied red. This is our current favourite.

With just two weeks left to the SeaWheeze and our hardest training run out of the way (congrats btw), it’s time to focus on the fun stuff… like getting together the ultimate race playlist. Here’s a list of 13.1 "take-my-aching-body-over-the-finish-line” songs curated by the folks who know running best, you guys!
