#WeRunSocial Thingamajig GIVEAWAY

I have a confession to make: I'm always late to the party... No, not to a legit shin-dig {I'm a very punctual person}... But I tend to be late to the game on trends... Maybe it's because I don't want to waste my money on something until it's tried and true... Maybe it's because I hate doing something just because "everyone else is doing it"... Whatever the case is, I tend to be late on the uptake for most things (take running for example, I didn't start this AMAZING hobby till I was 28!).

This is even the case on an item that a ton of my running friends have been swearing by for YEARS... THE BUFF!

Now, if you're like me, the first thing that probably popped in your head was being "nude"... Thankfully this post is NOT about running naked (sorry to the creepers who are now disappointed and leaving the post)... A buff is the fun-fangled thingamajig that can be used in a million and one ways. Think of them as the Swiss Army knife of running accessories.

Well, a couple months back, Brian (you probably know him as the one and only Pavement Runner) and I were chatting about a potential new #WeRunSocial product. Now, you see, the term "Buff" is trademarked, and we would NEVER want to infringe on that, so we thought about possibly creating a thingamajig that the community could rock. Not only would folks be able to rep the #WeRunSocial squad, but the product would be uber useful - #WinnerWinnerTofuDinner!


I've been rocking one for a while now (one of the perks of being married to the designer) and have seen the light! I've used it as a neckerchief and headband on runs, the hubby has rocked it as a sun guard while fly fishing and a face mask while hiking, and let's just say it comes in very handy on your wrist to wipe your nose or sweat from your face!

While wearing it during the Chicago Marathon a spectator called it a "fashion scarf" so I guess it could even be used as a mini infinity scarf ;)

Heed my warning... If you don't have one of these whatchamacallits in your running arsenal, you're missing out! I was tardy to this party, but you better believe I'm thankful I finally came around! THIS SIMPLE PIECE OF FABRIC IS A GAME CHANGER! Let me pay the "dumb tax" on your behalf and take my word for it... these are AMAZEBALLS! And, lucky for you, I've got one to give away! The game plan is to come out with a new design annually, so, like Pokemon, you gotta catch 'em all! (PS In case you aren't the lucky winner, you can grab one from Pavement Runner's store.)


Entering is easy, simply put your name into the hat via the Rafflecopter widget below (some entry options are available daily, so I would highly recommend entering early and often to have the best shot at securing this prize for yourself)!
