Apple Covers The Speed Project

Via official Apple press release:

Members of Los Angeles’s Koreatown Run Club (KRC) and New York City’s Old Man Run Club (OMRC) have been training for this day for months, joining forces from their respective coasts to take on the grueling 300-plus-mile route through the Mojave Desert to Las Vegas. 

…

Through it all — the rugged landscape, the sleep deprivation, the dehydration, the extreme temperatures, and the pouring rain — Apple Watch Ultra 2 was an essential companion, offering the 12-member team the ability to instantly keep tabs on each others’ locations, take hands-free calls, keep an eye on their pace, provide visibility in the darkness, and view their elevation.

Last year the Trail Running Film Festival highlighted The Speed Project in the film ‘Chasing Crazy‘ as part of the Official Selection 2023.

How much longer until Apple has a supported/sponsored athlete at Western States?
