    Back to the TEMPO

    New season. Big momentum. Plenty of stories to tell. The TEMPO powered by FRESHJUNKIE Racing is back! Mike on the Mic and Pat Fellows (PF) kick off Season 4 with a look at what’s been happening across FJR—and a running community that keeps showing up in a big way. We revisit the success of the 17th annual Northshore Half Marathon weekend, from its expanded two-day format to the runners, run clubs, and finish-line moments that made it special. Then we look ahead to the TCS New York City Marathon, where the FJR crew heads behind the scenes to help support one of running’s biggest stages. Pull up a chair and catch up with us. The TEMPO is rolling again.
