Thirty minutes under the blue lights. Thirty minutes on the pavement. That was Power Your Stride: Fueled by Celsius , and on August 30, 56 studios nationwide took it outside.
Run Stronger was [solidcore]'s limited-time August 2026 initiative for runners. More than 170 studios ran themed classes on August 5, 15, 21 and 24, in Power30 and Signature50 formats. It ended with Power Your Stride: Fueled by Celsius on August 30: a Power30 class followed by a 30-minute group run, hosted by 56 studios nationwide and fueled by Celsius.

Running is the number one activity our members pair with [solidcore], so this August we built a whole month around it. Run Stronger set out to show runners and non-runners alike what strength training does for every stride. The full case for why strength training matters for runners is in our kickoff post.
The format was simple on purpose: a Power30, then a 30-minute group run led by a local run club partner. Class first, miles second, with the same people beside you for both.
Celsius fueled every participant, from the first rep to the last stretch of the run. As one of our Core Collective partners, Celsius has been part of the [solidcore] community long before August 30. Power Your Stride just gave it a little more mileage.
Studios coast to coast turned a Sunday class into a run club, including Chelsea (New York), Ballston (Virginia), Buckhead (Georgia), Hollywood (California), West Palm Beach (Florida), Biltmore (Arizona), Salt Lake City (Utah) and Center City (Pennsylvania).
In Philadelphia, [solidcore] Center City teamed up with Men's Night Run Club, a local run club, bringing two communities together for one shared challenge.
We built Run Stronger around the moves that matter most to runners, and you met us there: runners and non-runners, first-timers and marathoners. You took on the work under the blue lights across four themed days, then headed out the door and onto the pavement on August 30. Thank you for taking the class, then taking the miles.
"Our Power Your Stride event at Center City was the perfect bridge between functional fitness (using the Power30 to complement the muscles used in running) and community building (by partnering with a local Philadelphia run club, Men's Night Run Club). Bringing the two communities together, especially in ways that help support the other both physically and mentally, gave members a new challenge and a new connection at the same time."
Kriz Abernathy | Head Coach & Community Manager | [solidcore] Center City
"Salt Lake City is such an active place to be from hiking to skiing to running, everyone is always prioritizing movement. Taking the month of August to emphasize the benefits of pairing [solidcore] with running was a phenomenal way to educate our members on just how necessary strength-training is to your over all health & wellness. Power Your Stride was such a fun event, bringing together runners of all levels to celebrate the perfect pair: [solidcore] & running!"
Ally Mihm | Head Coach & Community Manager | [solidcore] Salt Lake City
Run Stronger themed classes were a limited-time series that ran on four dates in August, and the month wrapped with Power Your Stride: Fueled by Celsius on August 30. The featured exercises are part of the [solidcore] method, so they're still on the machine in regular classes. See all eight featured exercises.
Thank you to every coach, member, run club partner and Celsius for showing up on August 30. Whether it was your first group run or your hundredth, you left stronger for it. Keep being stronger for it.
