Next #runchat Sunday 5/8, Sponsored by Hydrapak



Very excited for another week of #runchat.  This week we not only celebrate running but also our moms.  If you are a mom, come treat yourself to an hour #runchat this weekend during your special day.  If you are a father, you can come as well since our sponsored giveaway is unisex from Hydrapak.

The Gear & Company: I’ve been very happy with the Hydrapak gear that is tucked away in my closet and if you have not checked out their stuff before get to their website and have a look.  #runchat only has sponsors that we use in our real life and believe in and this week it is the same- we are stoked to offer a giveaway for the Selva hydration pack.

The Selva is the ultimate all-around hydration pack which is built around a 70 oz reservoir.  It also has just enough space to carry some gear.  You can take this bad boy out for a 2 hour+ run, hike or ride and have plenty of space for fluid and other gear for the workout.

It features a large main pocket with pump sleeve and zippered pockets, dedicated zippered reservoir pocket on back panel, quick access front applied pocket with internal organizer pockets, elastic loops and key clip, dedicated audio pocket and cord port, soft moisture wicking back panel (so key if you commute on a bike with it), comfort-padded shoulder straps, 360 degree reservoir insulation, silky slider sternum strap, reflective light loop and removable waist belt.

The perfect workout buddy with a retail price of $74.99.

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 @hydrapak on Twitter and RT the #runchat details- leave a comment below that you have done so for an entry.

Like Hydrapak on Facebook and 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 May 8th 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, 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 everyone can follow all of fantastic responses.

Go follow @hydrapak, like them on Facebook and join #runchat this Sunday!

Hope to see you at #runchat Sunday, if you have any questions just put them in the comments section below or email me.
