Spring 2019 Issue

This springtime edition of METER features three different racing tales from different eras and different perspectives.

From a South African runner at the turn of the century to Japanese athletes who won Boston in the shadow of WWII to the unbeatable Tennessee women of the Penn Relays, they’re connected across time and circumstance by the transcendence of racing. Each tale contains a moment upon which the race results hinged. From a fateful sip of champagne to a well-timed surge on the Franklin Field backstretch, these moments live on in both memory and history.

For Runners.
For The Sport.
For The Love.

Meter takes a long form look at the hidden side of running culture and at the athletes, traditions and events that make running the greatest sport in the world. Now published as quarterly broadsheet, you can pick up Meter free at Tracksmith events or purchase issues online.
