Have you heard of Wanderlust 108? The world’s first and only “mindful triathlon.” I hadn’t until I received the new press release.
Wanderlust, the producer of the largest yoga lifestyle events in the world, in partnership with Adidas, reveals the Fall, North American dates and locations for Wanderlust 108, the world’s first and only “mindful triathlon.” This Spring, the Wanderlust 108 came to broad public parks in top markets in the United States, Mexico, Chile, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and Australia. Now, the event series comes to more cities in the US, Argentina, Mexico, Russia, Germany, Australia and New Zealand.
Tickets for the Fall go on sale, tomorrow. Wanderlust’s reimagined triathlon consists of a five-kilometer run (or walk), a large-scale, outdoor yoga class and a guided meditation led by the world’s top teachers. Mindful triathletes will also enjoy music from live DJs, acroyoga, hooping and other surprises throughout the day.
New this year, participants can add a scheduled class such as aerial yoga, acro-yoga, hooping, walking meditation, photography or essential oils workshops, or a community yoga experience from favorite local teachers. At all North American Wanderlust 108 events, the Kula Marketplace will showcase local craft vendors, including clothing, jewelry, and handcrafted items. Local and organic food vendors will be on site, as well as “The Conservatory,” a retail store and juice bar collaboration between Wanderlust and Adidas. Also available is a picnic lunch option—the “Wander bowl”—a hearty, Mexican inspired vegetarian meal of rice, beans, cheese, avocado and mango-lime-cilantro salsa, plus snacks and a beverage— to keep participants nourished throughout the day.

After this overwhelmingly positive response, Wanderlust 108 now expands to over 60 cities in more than 17 countries on 5 continents. Wanderlust’s mission is to help you find your true north — to cultivate your best self — and Wanderlust 108 was created to support that mission at a large scale. Wanderlust 108 will foster individual wellness and positive social change by building community around mindfulness practice such as yoga and meditation. Mindfulness practice has been proven to have many benefits, including anxiety reduction and improved cognition. Wanderlust 108 provides an entry into mindfulness that is accessible, affordable, inclusive and fun.
At each Wanderlust 108 event in the United States, attendees will be nourished by a number of Wanderlust partners, including:
- Adidas, will host a one-of-a kind, immersive onsite activation to engage in attendee-led experiences, enabling them to embed more sport into their day and create their best selves at all US-based events. Curated adidas apparel also will be sold at each event.
- Ford Motor Company aims to deliver great products, a strong business and a better world. Ford is proud to be the Official Vehicle of Wanderlust. Event goers will have the opportunity to learn more about Ford’s full line-up of hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and all-electric cars, including the new 2017 Fusion Hybrid. Attendees can also join Ford for exclusive activities and take home some incredible giveaways at the Ford display.
In 2017, Wanderlust has partnered with No Kid Hungry to help end childhood hunger in local communities across the United States. For every ticket sold, Wanderlust will donate $1.08 to No Kid Hungry. This contribution can help connect a child facing hunger 10 meals.
