AUSTIN, Texas, June 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Shokz, a pioneer in open-ear audio technology, announces 5 Pro Athletes representing the brand will be competing in The Western States 100-Mile Endurance Run, the world’s oldest trail race, taking place June 28-29. Hailing from across the globe, these 5 elite runners will rely on Shokz headphones for the ultimate ultrarunning auditory experience.
- Adam Peterman (USA): To this 2022 Western States winner, this year’s event is more than just a race — it’s a chance to reconnect profoundly with nature, and a conversation with his limits. OpenRun Pro 2 serves as an inner encouragement, allowing him to stay connected and helping him remain focused, even in the toughest moments.
- Marianne Hogan (Canada): Marianne Hogan has a deep love for nature and an enduring spirit of exploration. She believes that trail running is more than just a sport — it’s a way to connect intimately with the raw, natural world. The OpenRun Pro 2 is essential to her adventures — delivering clear sound while allowing her to relish the peace and freedom that come from nature.
- Rosanna Buchhauer (Germany): Her journey into ultra-distance trail running was far from easy — she didn’t have early speed or fame, but quietly forged her path through determination, curiosity, and a deep love for nature. For her, Shokz headphones are not just gear, but a partner through every climb, descent, and moment of challenge.
- Hannes Namberger (Germany): Hailing from the snow-covered landscapes of Bavaria, Germany, Hannes Namberger’s training log is a testament to perseverance through winter’s harshest tests. For Hannes, the OpenRun Pro 2 is the secret weapon that transforms adversity into fuel.
- Caitlin Fielder (New Zealand): Caitlin Fielder is a professional trail runner with standout performances on the global stage — including a 5th place finish at UTMB OCC — she has quickly risen to the ranks of the world’s top athletes. Shokz products are her must-have on the trail, offering premium sound without blocking the natural world.
