Getting Geared Up

I have a crazy cool announcement!

After reading some posts on other blogs (sorry I don't recall which or I would link to them) about being sponsored by certain groups or testing out products for companies. I decided that since I love my Brooks sneakers so much, it was worth an email to ask them if they wanted me to review for them. And guess what?! They do! I have spoken with a very nice gentleman who sent me out some apparel, which arrived today! I will be wearing one of the shirts he sent for my speed work tonight, and I will let you know how it goes.

And! I entered into a contest on 5 Miles Past Empty's site for compression socks. Compression socks are supposed to make a huge difference in how well you run in them and how fast you recover after. It would be great to win a pair since I don't know anything about the brands out there and they are expensive. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

  2. That is really cool! I won't be able to be a tester for anyone until I'm stateside again :(
    But by then, I will [hopefully] but a super awesome runner, and I'll have companies begging me to try their stuff.
    Psh, yeah right... But a girl can dream, right? LOL

  3. Oh my! I enticed them by telling them where I was with my running. I told them that my blog is new and that I have been attracting a lot of readers that are similar to me, which is really helpful and inspiring. We are the up and coming! :) as for being a super awesome runner, A. you already are B. When you return to the States your blog will have tons of followers and companies will be coming to you for reviews! ;)
