Wearables and training software firm COROS Wearables, has announced the release of a limited-edition COROS APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition watch.
According to the company… ‘Kilian and COROS worked in harmony to design an exclusive product bundle that’s approved by the world’s most outstanding mountain athlete.
‘Every aspect of the APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition, from the watch’s colours to the packaging to the broader campaign, is created to represent Kilian and his training environment. The watch features a simple yet bold black and white pallet derived from the snow and igneous rock found around Kilian’s home in Norway.’
Included with the COROS APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition are:
- Unique coloured/designed APEX 2 Pro watch model with matching nylon band
- Extra silicone watch band to match special edition colour
- NNormal Run Cap
- Opportunity to apply for the Kilian Jornet 12-Week Virtual Training Camp
“COROS and Kilian have worked in unison to build a bigger and better platform for training since the day our partnership originated,” said Lewis Wu, CEO of COROS Wearables.
“While the Limited-Edition watch is a physical representation of this partnership, Kilian’s influence can be witnessed by all COROS users via the recently introduced ‘Effort Pace’ metrics.”
In addition to the introduction of the new watch, COROS will be partnering with Kilian Jornet on an exclusive 12-week virtual training camp. Individuals who purchase the APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition will have the opportunity to apply for the training camp until February 17, 2023.
After this time, 25 individuals from around the globe will be selected based on their personal story and athletic goals to receive coaching from the leading trail athlete, along with up to €350 worth of NNormal gear.
Kilian Jornet said “I spend many hours every day outdoors, training to improve my level, adventuring in the mountains. For this, I need to rely on data to monitor my training stimulus.
“During the past year working with COROS developers, I’ve learned a lot about this, creating the best tools for me to use when trail running, skimo or out in the mountains. I believe that with this special edition APEX 2 Pro, we can keep pushing how the COROS device can help me – or anyone – improve their training.”
The COROS APEX 2 Pro Kilian Jornet Edition is available for purchase on coros.com and through select running speciality retailers and international distribution partners, with a suggested retail price of US$549 / €599 / £549. The company added that only 5,000 units will be produced worldwide.
