🧥 a fall capsule wardrobe & a US made boot brand

Hey Reader,

“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”

–Dr. Seuss

This is the final newsletter of my special fall email series highlighting fresh fall style content at GW HQ. Not to worry, more in-depth style, buying guides and reviews will be on the way!

But first off, thanks for all the runners who reached out with advice for me as I embark on my running journey. It's invaluable advice and means a lot. So thank you!

My inbox is always open. I read and respond to every message, so don't be a stranger ;)

As part of my ongoing training for my very first 10k (next week), I went on another trail run (last weekend), which was a serene break from the bustling city.

Compared to the previous trail, this route was more tranquil, with a largely flat terrain, offering a peaceful forest escape.

The unexpected 20k journey led us to a campsite where we bonded over a BBQ, paddleboarding, and lakeside relaxation. This camaraderie is what truly makes running special – it’s a social hub fostering new connections.

After a fever had me bedridden for the past five days, I’m focusing on a few more steady runs this week. Despite the setback, I finally had the strength to join last night's Sunday long run with a group of 40 strong.

I know with running, consistency is key and with just a week left until my big race, I’m confident that I’ll be ready.

And now here is this week's content.
