Running is more than just exercise: it’s balance, motivation, and an expression of an active lifestyle. Regular runners know that every run, every workout, and every goal brings new energy and the desire to improve. And of course, the essential element is the right clothing. The new lululemon running collection for Spring 2026 combines functional performance with modern design, offering lightweight, breathable styles that will accompany runners every kilometer.
German professional runner and content creator Marc Tortell represents a new generation of athletes – combining performance, culture, and style. With a personal best of 3:33.69 minutes over 1500 meters, he is one of the fastest German runners of all time and has represented Germany internationally on numerous occasions – including a 5th place finish at the 2025 European Team Championships in Madrid. In addition to middle-distance running, Marc regularly competes in marathons and consistently runs times under 2:30 hours.
Marc’s favorite lululemon products include the Fast and Free Tank Top, whose lightweight and highly breathable material makes it ideal for intense workouts, and the Fast and Free Half Tight, his preferred tights for fast tempo runs thanks to their combination of comfort and performance. For runs in warmer weather, he likes to reach for the Mile Maker Shorts with a ripstop liner, which impress with their light weight. The 2-in-1 Mesh Jacket from the SLNSH Collection is also among his favorites – a fashionable piece that combines style and performance. For winter training, Marc relies on the Stretch Glyde Rain Jacket, which is ultra-thin, warm, and doesn’t overheat. Outside of training, he prefers lululemon joggers, especially the „Big Cozy,“ which he describes as the most comfortable pants he has ever worn.
Hamburg-based endurance runner and lululemon ambassador Dennis Roloff embodies a mindful approach to running. For him, running is more than athletic performance – it’s a daily ritual that creates space for reflection, mental strength, and genuine connection. He originally started running as a way to unwind from his job in the fashion industry. Today, he competes in marathons, long-distance races, and ultramarathons, and in 2026, he will participate in international challenges such as The Speed Project Solo, UTMB World Series races, and trail and marathon races worldwide. Through his journey, he inspires a growing community to see running not just as a sport, but also as a tool for well-being and mental balance. Therefore, lululemon is delighted to introduce two very special new ambassadors: Marc Tortell and Dennis Roloff.
