Matches Made in Heaven

March 28, 2016

This week on Tuesdays on the Run we’re talking all about sponsors. You know, the peeps whose product goes together with you like peanut butter on jelly. Maybe it’s a race series, a running shoe brand, a type of fuel or an accessory you love. This is your chance to put your smoke signals out there cuz who knows? They just might be reading.

Personally, my cup runneth over with some very awesome sponsors and ambassador gigs:

RocknBlog is one big party.

Spandits Collage 2
Spandits makes my heart do double flips every time they introduce a new pattern. SAPNDITSLOVE saves you an extra 10%!

EDS-finish-681x1024
Espirit de She race series made my triathlon dream come true last year and I’m back for more this year.

NOW Mission

Now Wellness. This brand is the peanut butter to my jelly. Our home was filled with NOW products long before I ever became an ambassador. To put it simply, our viewpoints on health and wellness just jives. MARCIANOW10 saves you $10 off a $40 purchase.ย 

world marathon majors

If I could choose just ONE more sponsor, I’d have to go with my whole reason for this blog. I’m in it to run the World Marathon Majors. I’ve got Boston, Chicago and New York City finito. London and Berlin are going to be a challenge logistically and lottery-wise. Where there’s a will there’s a way though. If I were a World Marathon Majors-sponsored runner (not sure if that’s even a thing), I’d be able to make my way to Europe much more easily.

How about you? What brands would be dream sponsors for you?

    Wow! 25% off of headsweats is a great deal. I may have to check that out. My sister has a visor that brand and she really likes hers.

    Everyone seems to love Spandits. We do not have them in France but I definitely need to check them out. EVERYONE raves. How is the waistline ? I like a wide waist band, and low rise.

    I’ll admit when I first saw this subject, my immediate thought was to write about something else! Then I put my thinking cap on.

    I got my first Spandits thanks to you, but alas, this week is deep in springter and it’s too cold to wear them! ๐Ÿ™

    I was REALLY excited to be picked by Tailwind to represent their brand. After all, I’m just a mere marathoner…

    If I had to pick a ‘dream’ sponsor, it would have to be someone who would fly me to races and pay for lodging. Like an airlines or Runners World…

    I’d be happy with Asics. I think you know what I mean…

    I’m tough on sponsors, but right now Under Armour and Oiselle are still my go-to. I actually don’t like a lot of brands right now. Either they’ve changed their product and I no longer like them, or the company is acting too big for its britches and being a bully.

    I happen to know that the Majors do have ambassadors. My friend Linzie just got selected. So keep any eye open. It’s out there! Thanks for hosting!

    You represent some fantastic brands, and there a few that I haven’t heard of and need to check out! That would be awesome to get a sponsorship to run the world majors! Most of those cities (besides Boston, NYC and London) I’d just love to go for a vacation!

  8. Pam says

    You certainly have a nice group of brands that you are working with. I guess I am so particular about my gear that it would be hard for me to pick the perfect sponsor. I might choose American Airlines not that there would be a prayer because I love to travel.

    I would love to be a part of Rock n Blog-I love reading everyone’s recaps-it truly is such a run party!

    I Love NOW and Headsweats too!! The marathon majors would be so awesome. I hope that you can make it work for both Berlin and London!

    What great brands you represent!

    If I ran marathons, I would totally be in it for the Majors. How awesome would that be to be able to travel to Europe and run….all sponsored….a girl can dream right ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I hope in your lifetime you are able to make it to complete the all the majors!

    It’s a thing! And you’d be GREAT at it. I just saw this on another site to apply for the Majors Ambassadorship. Good luck!

    I have never seriously thought about this… bc I’m very new to blogging. But I would love for somebody to give me free tacos to run! mm tacos!! just not taco bell.

  14. Lauren @ Lauren Runs says

    Oooh – getting sponsored by the Marathon Majors! That’s a dream too!

  15. Rachel says

    You’ve got some pretty awesome ambassador gigs, lady!

  16. Jessica S says

    March 29, 2016 at 1:47 pm

    Fingers crossed that the powers that be help you get into the Majors. ๐Ÿ™‚ You never know who might be reading!

    That would be awesome! I’ve always thought finishing the world majors would be fun to try.
    If I was to ever get a dream sponsor, I’ve always wanted someone to sponsor me to run the Antarctica Marathon. I’ll probably have to save up to do it myself because I’d like to do one on each continent. But if I could get someone to flip the $20,000 bill for Antarctica, yeah that would be a dream and why not dream, there is no harm in it, ha ha!

    Thanks for sharing your brands. i hadn’t heard of a few of them and will be checking them out fo’ shore.

    To anyone who’s recruiting brand ambassadors, these bloggers truly, truly believe in your brands and that’s why we trust what they write about.

    March 30, 2016 at 10:14 am

    how cool you are sponsored by all these awesome brands! I’ve never been asked to be sponsored but would love to represent a great brand for sure!

    I am a Tasc Performance Brand Ambassador and I love love their products. So soft and perfect for running, biking and barre!

    Great brands and did you know that Abbott World Marathon Majors just started an Ambassador program?

  22. Becky @ Ok, So Here's the Plan says

    March 30, 2016 at 6:13 pm

    What fun brands to be an ambassador for! I would love to be a Balega ambassador, any anyone who wants to send me clothes or shoes – I’m down! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Head sweats is the best brand out there! and I love your Spandits, all very cute.
    It is hard for me to pick one, but I would love to go to Revel Rockies race in Denver.

    Love Spandits too, will need to check out head sweats, what a sweet discount.

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
