The cutoff to hit the qualifying time and punch your ticket to the 2024 Marathon Olympic Trials is Wednesday 12/6. The California International Marathon (CIM), a course notorious for its streamlined start, flat course, and consistently perfect race conditions, just so happens to be this Sunday.
For dozens of athletes heading to Sacramento, it's their very last chance to qualify for the trials and achieve their wildest marathon dreams. Finley is calling it, "the most exciting performance running moment in recent memory."
With everything on the line, we've recruited a group of our most trusted Bandit athletes and team members to go out to California and help pace as many women and men as possible to hit the cutoff.
Stay tuned on Instagram in the coming days to watch it all go down.
The B-Mail: CIM pop-up details, the science of layering, Rob Perez on the pod, Bandit Wrapped, and our final playlist of 2023. Good luck, godspeed.

05 — And our final playlist of 2023. Good luck
This playlist is a lot like our year: it's got ups, it's got downs, it's got boppers, it's got beepers, and of course it's got the occasional zapper. Throw it on shuffle, kick back, relax, and enjoy. Until next year.
