Steamboat Springs, Colo. , Sep 06, 2012 -
Point6,
makers of premium merino wool socks engineered to deliver the ultimate
in performance and comfort, is proud to show its support for the 6th
Annual Run Rabbit Run 50 mile Ultra Marathon, and the first annual Run Rabbit Run 100 mile Ultra Marathon, in Steamboat Springs this month.
Both
races are part of the Montrail Cup Series, and cover 150 combined miles
through the Routt National Forest and Emerald Mountain. The 100 Miler
starts on Friday, Sept. 14th with runners climbing approximately 20,000
fee throughout the 35 hour race. The 50 Miler kicks off Saturday, Sept.
15th with 9,000 feet of climbing in 15 hours. All runners will receive a
free pair of Point6 performance merino running socks guaranteed to
maximize performance and comfort for long miles.
Founded in
2008, Point6’s performance merino running socks have quickly become a
favorite among ultrarunners and endurance athletes. From long-distance
ultramarathons and trail runs, to hard and fast intervals on the track,
Point6 running socks are engineered to endure miles of repetitive force
without interfering with high-tech running shoes or impairing
circulation.
“We’re excited to be a part of Run Rabbit Run,”
noted Katie Hughes, sales and marketing coordinator for Point6. “Running
is an extremely important category for us, and we’re proud to show our
support for these amazing athletes. Running and climbing over
long-distances at altitude is no small feat, but we hope our high-tech
merino running socks will provide comfort and enhance the experience for
participants.”
Point6 running socks offer sport-specific
cushioning, rugged durability and stabilizing properties designed to
maximize performance and comfort. Knit-in Achilles and arch braces
ensure a snug, secure fit and extra support whether for trail, road,
treadmill, or track. Extra-light cushioning is strategically placed
under foot, where runners need it most, for a performance, comfortable
fit. Mesh ventilation panels enhance breathability and moisture
management for warm days and prevent chaffing, hot spots and blisters.
Proudly
made in the USA, Point6 exclusively uses 100-percent compact spun
merino yarns for running socks with unsurpassed durability and luxurious
softness. Point6 sources only the highest quality merino wool, combined
with advanced knitting and sock construction techniques, for a
signature fit and long-lasting comfort.
