Dakotah Popehn, born in Minnesota in 1995, started her athletic journey playing ice hockey.
Encouraged by her mother to try a new sport, she discovered a passion for running after joining her high school track and field team. She went on to compete at Northern State University, where she excelled in long-distance events. After graduating, Dakotah immediately transitioned to marathons and has completed over 15 since 2018. Beyond running, she enjoys spending time with her dogs and playing pickleball and golf. For Dakotah, running is a time to escape and dream big. She values listening to music during her runs but also prioritizes safety and awareness of her surroundings. Shokz OpenRun Pro 2’s open-ear technology gives her the perfect balance—allowing her to enjoy music while staying alert to the world around her.
"Comfort and safety matter most—Shokz’s open-ear design lets me enjoy music while staying aware."
When I go out for runs, I use that time to escape. I dream big dreams and get lost in my head. Listening to music on the run helps me escape, but it’s so important to me to feel safe and be able to hear my surroundings. Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 gives me the best of both worlds with its open-ear technology. I’m able to hear those around me, and I’m able to jam out on the run!
