GIVEAWAY!!!

To celebrate getting 150 followers, let's have a GIVEAWAY.
A small one because I don't get free stuff sent to me so this comes out of my pocket.  This is my thank you for following me, for reading my posts and for all the comments I got so far.  You have been kind and supportive and I appreciate this a lot.  Lately I have seen on other blogs comments that are not always kind or helpful and this makes me so sad for the blogger who gets them.  I am grateful to have nice folks like you guys as my followers!

OK so this is what you could win plus maybe a few extra things.



Kara Goucher's book: It is brand new.  I am not going to put a review of this book.  I will say that the truth is that this one is not for me but I know others did like it.  Maybe it is for you! Here's your chance to find out...FOR FREE.

Some fuel items: Another way to try new things for free or to get extra of the stuff you already like. 
  • 4 different flavors of Cliff Block Shots.
  • 3 packs of GU, 1 Vanilla and 2 Plain.
  • 1 mini pack of Sports Beans (multi flavor)
  • 1 EFS Liquid Shot (Vanilla)
You are probably all familiar with the first 3 items.  The EFS liquid shot is worth a try, easier to get down than GU.  This was the magic potion that ex blogger Chris K used to BQ.  (CK if you still read the blogs, we miss you!)

How to win this stuff:

1. Write a poem in French
2. Say you love Duke.
3. Do 100 Jumping Jacks
4. I am kidding....come on!

Seriously now:

1. Follow my blog and leave a comment: 1 entry
2. Share this on twitter or on your blog and leave a comment: 1 entry

Bonus
1 Extra entry for each answer you get right (answers are all on my blog):

a) I am running Long Beach this weekend what number race will this be for me?

b) Where in Canada am I from?

c) Who is my celebrity BFF?

d) Who sent me a gift from Italy?

e) Who are the 2 famous runners that I have met?


OK you have until October 10th to enter! 
I will select a winner with Random.org.
