Dream ambassadorship? I sort of felt I hit the jackpot being picked as a Skirtsports ambassador. Y’all are probably tired of hearing about my Skirsports addiction by now, but the truth is even if they hadn’t picked me, I’d still be excited about Skirtsports.
So I really had to put my thinking cap on for this Tuesdays on the Run linkup: your dream ambassadorship.
And then it came to me: what if all my favorite my favorite running gear brands wanted me to represent them?
That is where the dream comes in, as obviously these companies are not merging, or pursuing me with baited breath.
But there you have it:
- Athleta for cool casual athleisure and tights, capris, and tops
- Lululemon for jackets, tops, and capris (which are tights on me)
- Title9 for dresses, socks, running tops, tights, and capris
- Oiselle for comfortable stylish running clothes (and Kara!)
- Sparkleskirts because I’m a girly girl
- Skirtsports because the patterns are so cute, they’re innovative, and they really support women of all shapes and abilities — and let’s not forget the pockets! (Code CRJ20 for 20% off full priced items)
But hey, let’s not forget the food!
I wouldn’t get very far running if I didn’t fuel right. So what if Honeystinger, Hammer Nutrition, Evol, Siggi’s Dairy, and Oatmega combined forces?
- Honeystinger for the waffles
- Hammer Nutrition for the protein bars, supplements, protein powders and more
- Evol is real food, real fast — lately I’ve been loving their egg scramble cups on occasion
- Siggi’s Dairy for their Icelandic style yogurt — yummy and not a ton of sugar
- Oatmega for their protein bars and cookies
So really this is just a bunch of my favorite products that I use to run in and fuel my runs. Because I can never pick a favorite — not a favorite furkid, not a favorite movie, not a favorite grocery store. . . you get the picture. I like to spread the love.
If I had to pick just one thing? I’d want a company to sponsor me — you know, like an elite athlete? To pay for my training, my races, my shoes, etc. etc. etc.Hey, I’m a BOTPer (back of the packer) — you get more advertising that way as the spectators get to see me longer and everyone passes me.
I’m linking up today with MCM Mama Runs, Marcia’s Healthy Slice, and My No Guilt Life for the Tuesdays on the Run linkup.
I’m not much into gear; my tanks and sports bras are from Target and my one pair of pants from Lands End I’ve had for years. Tees and techs from a few favorite running sites: Another Mother Runner, Run Like a Girl/Canada, etc. Both my jackets were gifts. But I do love my running shorts from Oiselle and waist belt from HipSister.
I haven’t bought skirts yet, but I do like seeing them on your page and others’. Very cute. I haven’t indulged. Maybe some day.

Connie, you’re better off not indulging — they can be addicting! I am a mix of low & mid end stuff. 🙂

I’ve never heard of Title 9. I love all things Honey Stingers and would love to be an ambassador for them as well!

Honeystinger does have an ambassador program! I haven’t applied.
Title 9 has great clothes, similar to Athleta (and maybe even pricier for some things, although others a bit more reasonable — great sales! Better than Athleta’s).

I’ve never heard of Title9, will have to check them out…I am way too cheap to buy Athleta or Lululemon so I probably need them to sponsor me!

Title9 is also pricey, and similar to Athleta, but they have better sales. 🙂
My SIL keeps getting me gift cards to them, damn her — feeding the addiction!

I agree. Can’t afford the pricey stuff. Usually buy in Target.

I love Lululemon and Athleta capris. However, I want an airline to sponsor me (in my dreams) so I can travel whenever I have the urge. Then I could run races with lots of the bloggers I would like to meet in person.

I really like Athleta for swimsuits-bra sized swimwear that doesn’t look like a bra is always nice 🙂 And I love Lulu for the zip hoodies-they last forever, totally worth the price!

I do love Skirtsports, Runningskirts (for capri skirts), Bombas socks and Saucony shoes. They would never send me stuff since I don’t blog or plan to. I do have a Sparkleskirt that I have yet to run in….perhaps sometime this week.

That’s when you’d want my Running Skirts skirted tights. I wore a pair at the Las Vegas RnR because I thought it might be as cold as that first year.
