I am extremely excited to have been chosen to be a Race Ambassador for the ZOOMA Great Lakes Half Marathon and 5k. This race is one I've wanted to do for a while now, and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to run and represent this year! The race will be held October 20, 2012, and it starts and finishes along the shore of Lake Geneva, WI, which is a really beautiful area.
Want to run with me? Use the code GLAMB9 for a $10 discount off the half marathon or a $5 discount off the 5k race. Prices will increase on August 5, so don't wait! Register now! :)
Oh, wow!! How cool is that?! Congrats, Bobbi! :)
ReplyDeleteSomebody better have a meltdown at mile 12 in my honor!! :D
ReplyDeleteThey couldn't have chosen a better person for the role!!! Congrats - such an honor and seriously, you're so worthy of being an ambassador to anything running related!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just saw your DM entry - WOWZERS!!!! OMG girl - you are amazing!!! 26.38 miles in 4:49 in non-race conditions in this heat - yeah, you are really an amazing person. I'm sooo happy you got redemption and proved you could do it!! High 5 Sista'!
DeleteSorry for 3 comments - this one is completely not running related and I really can't tell you enough how much I honest to God don't mean to be offensive at all - I seriously just wanted to share this blog post with you in hopes that you might be able to maybe take the idea and make it something that could work for your son (or not, I swear I don't mean to be so bold as to suggest this- honestly, I'm just sharing a blog post that contains a home made shutterfly book that I think is GENIUS for this mother to help her autistic son - please please please don't be offended)
DeleteHere's the link to the book it takes a while to load but I think it's worth it):

okay - pinkie swear I wasn't trying to be mean, or rude, or cross any line - I just really thought it was a very creative and great idea. Okay sorry to bother you - hope I didn't upset you.
how awesome!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...maybe this can be one we run together!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome - my wife Laima (of Women's Endurance Gear) and Marcia (of The Healthy Slice) are also GL Ambassadors. Should be a fun group!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! See you there:)
ReplyDeleteHello, fellow ambassador! Can't wait to meet you! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome bobbi! Many congrats!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! That looks like an AMAZING race - the Lake Geneva area is so beautiful. The weather should be just gorgeous at that time and the foliage will probably be in the midst of changing colors. Ahhh, fall! (Funny to say this while it's in the 90s and up for the foreseeable future here in Chicagoland, isn't it? Sigh...)
