#runchat Sunday 6/26, Giveaway Sponsored by ellasport
This weekend, Sunday June 26th, another awesome evening of #runchat returns. We welcome back a sponsor, athletic apparel company ellasport, which is giving away one of their awesome pieces of apparel.
The Gear & Company: I love this company. They are a grassroots company from right here in New York City. The owner, Pamela, is a frequent runner on the streets and parks of the city and has created a fantastic brand that I am happy to help promote. At ellasport they are relentlessly pursuing their mission to provide women (keep reading men) with technical athletic apparel that is designed with the highest quality performance fabrics available, like Supplex® and Coolmax®.
The winner will receive a Park Tee (men, go ahead and gift this to that athletic woman in your life, she will be happy). I have not had a chance to wear this but I trust Pamela when she says it is:
- Super light, nylon/Lycra® blend for amazing breath-ability, moisture wicking, and softness against your skin.
- The PERFECT fit – smaller at the top and falls just over the hip!
- You can have skinny arms at last! The sleeve hits just under the shoulder muscle – the slimmest part of your arm.
- The neckline has a feminine shape and the back of the Tee is slightly longer than the front.
- Bright Pink, Electric Blue and Jet Black option
Retail price is $49.
How to Enter & Win: Everyone who participates in the #runchat on Sunday will be entered, at the end of the #runchat we will use random.org to select a winner.
You may increase your odds of winning by following @ellasport on Twitter and leave a comment below that you have done so for an entry.
Like them on Facebook and comment on their wall, then leave a comment below saying that you have done so and we will increase your entry again.
It is that simple to win!
The #runchat Details: beginning at 8 p.m. EST on Sunday June 26th both @RunningBecause and I will ask a running-related question using Twitter hashtag #runchat. You answer; you re-tweet other people’s answers; you respond to other people’s answers. If you’re not familiar with Twitter, it’s really that simple. Hootsuite is what I use as it makes following the conversations for the particular tag really easy.
The #runchat will last from 8-9 p.m. EST. We’ll post a new question every 5-10 minutes, depending on the nature of the conversations going on. We will be moderating the chat and all questions will come from me (@iRunnerBlog) and David (@RunningBecause).
Also, here are some helpful tips for having the best #runchat experience:
- TweetDeck or Hootsuite, create a new column with the #runchat tag to follow along
- TweetChat has been running very slowly the past few weeks so we can not endorse this as the most reliable option but if you do use it just sign in to that site with your Twitter account, put in the tag #runchat, you can join in the conversation without even having to retype #runchat
- web-based Twitter, create a new saved search with #runchat.
No matter how you follow along, please use the hashtag #runchat in each of your posts so we can follow all of the responses.
Go follow @ellasport and like them on Facebook and win!
