2026 IRONMAN Foundation Laulima Auction is Live, Features 3 Kona Slots and More - Slowtwitch News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The IRONMAN Foundation today launched their 2026 Laulima Auction, one of the largest fundraisers that the Foundation has throughout the year. This year there are 56 different items up for auction, including three different entries to the IRONMAN World Championship over the next two seasons. Before we talk about the prizes, let’s cover off on the auction itself and what it benefits.

Salomon’s Aero Blaze 4 is the Personification of “If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It Till It Is” - Slowtwitch News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Back when I was selling running shoes full-time, the most exciting and nerve-wracking moments were when flagship models from your top brands were about to be updated. These were the shoes that sold the most volume in-store by far; in fact, roughly 50% of our volume would roll through a core set of four models.

There’s simply no denying the significant impact that they’ve had on running over the last decade. And although the jury is still out as to whether or not these shoes are increasing rates of injury, the marketplace is still growing. As of this writing, carbon shoes represent just north of $3 billion USD of
Canyon Rewrites the Rules of Gravel Race Bikes with New Grail - Slowtwitch News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gravel racing has continued to grow, both at the professional and recreational level. And bikes are largely continuing to evolve. When we first started covering gravel before the pandemic, it was monumental if a bike could receive a tire greater than 38mm in width. When Canyon started on the engineering task of the bike series we’re talking about today back in 2024, the debate of just how wide tires should go was really taking off. According to Canyon, it was during the course of negotiating spo
