Before every major race, Bakline’s co-founder Matt gets the same call.
It’s early. Too early. But his mom’s voice cuts through the nerves: "I just wanted to say good luck. I love you." You’ve probably got someone like that too. The person tracking your splits. Holding your throwaway hoodie. Sending the “you got this” text at 5:36am. Or maybe it’s the runner next to you at the start — nodding, no words needed.

Support Your Local Runner is for them. The unsung crew. Because even in a solo sport, no one runs alone.
