Lacing up her sneakers, the dynamo New Balance #RunYourWay ambassador, Vicky Rüger, embarked on an electrifying quest to find the crème de la crème of running companions. Little did she know that her journey would lead her straight into the loving embrace of the New Balance 1080’s, where comfort, performance, and sheer excitement converge in a symphony of awesomeness. These shoes haven’t just caught Rüger’s eye; they’ve got her bubbling with enthusiasm, ready to spill the beans to her fellow runners.

As an avid sharer of running wisdom and camaraderie among athletes, Rüger passionately attests to the life-altering potential of the perfect pair of running shoes.

Now, with the New Balance 1080’s gearing up for their Cape Town debut this October, Rüger’s excitement is positively infectious, and she’s primed to lead the charge for runners worldwide.

“Being a New Balance Run Your Way ambassador, I get the power of running within a community,” says Rüger. “Running with a group connects you with kindred spirits who share your burning passion for the sport, amplifying your social experience and delivering that invaluable shot of motivation,” she adds with a grin.

Speaking of the ultimate running companion, the New Balance 1080’s are the very definition of versatility and performance. These aren’t just your run-of-the-mill running shoes; they’re New Balance’s crown jewels. According to a New Balance insider, “Whether you’re chasing peak performance, prepping for your next marathon, or simply relishing a leisurely jog, the 1080 offers unrivaled comfort and support.”
