Hope you can keep the RA flare in check - heat is awful for my autoimmune issues.<br /><br />I've never done an ambassadorship and not sure I'm cut out for one. I'm not very brand loyal (I relate to your desire for ALL THE SOCKS), and not very loud about promoting things even if I do love them.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17647383150283618698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-88311614176640767522018-07-03T14:26:06.710-05:002018-07-03T14:26:06.710-05:00I don't blame you for hitting the treadmill! I...I don't blame you for hitting the treadmill! I'm game for the treadmill in extreme weather conditions; i.e. psycho dangerously cold winter weather, blizzards, tornado threats, and extreme heat is in there too. No shame in the treadmill! A run is a run is a run! I have had some lame ambassadorships and some amazing ones. Sweatpink and FitFluential are two I dropped but BibRave has been SO good to me. And there is no pressure to buy anything - it's just straight up honest reviews, running and writing.Amy Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05683913769197406757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-28093195476134165652018-07-03T10:27:48.442-05:002018-07-03T10:27:48.442-05:00Holy hot summertime...I am not sure about the Chic...Holy hot summertime...I am not sure about the Chicago course, but I hope there is some shade :)livinglovingrunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572796254219994817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-63392912409264925512018-07-03T07:15:15.504-05:002018-07-03T07:15:15.504-05:00Kudos to you for having the courage to end a relat...Kudos to you for having the courage to end a relationship with a company that wasn't working out for you.

I HAVE resorted to treadmills but usually in the winter! I mean 10 miles on a treadmill!??? Cue Wayne and Garth "I'm not worthy!" The oddest / most interesting thing I found on a run was a bathroom scale. Along the train tracks / bike path. I thought wow, someone finally really did throw their scale out the window! <br /><br />How are the Zensah's in compression compared to tabio? because I really love the tabio socks but I figured out I need to order them from France so I haven't done it yet. <br /><br />I do love InB. I already have a hole in my clothes budget from the few items I've bought this year. <br /><br />I have only been an ambassador for one company and that's Rock 'n' Roll. It's not the best for people outside the US but if you are in the US it's great if you can make it to several races. I enjoyed my first couple of years tremendously. There are changes in the program that put me in a more neutral position. I still love the races and when I'm no longer an ambassador I will still participate! <br /><br />Not linking up this week as I unfortunately won't have time to go through all the links. runlaugheatpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233445490233555647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-40726178537519108602018-07-02T15:40:46.147-05:002018-07-02T15:40:46.147-05:00Oh man, you must have had to dig deep to run ten m...Oh man, you must have had to dig deep to run ten miles on the treadmill when there wasn't a blizzard outside.

Honestly, I'm more looking forward to meeting everyone :)<br /><br />Sounds like Inkburn was a great experience! I feel that way about Skirt Sports and SPI Belt.
