Sponsored???

No, I haven't been given a spot at Kona. But I might as well for how kewl I feel. Would we all agree that sponsored means you don't have to pay for stuff...right? Well someone out there's been reading my blog and decided to "give" me a 30 day supply of Accelerade Edge.

Now, don't anyone go and burst my bubble by explaining that companies give away stuff all the time as marketing ploy. But when this came in mail...



This back-of-the-packer felt sweeeeet! Now they are assuming that I train everyday. hmmmm ya...sure. But now that I have this stuff, I gotta try it. So its no less than 3 workouts per week and at least one 2-A-Day (which for me is starting my day with a spin on the trainer). I heard something on Bret's podcast (Zen and the art of triathlon) about Hornet Jizz, or something. And I know that Hammer gels have been working well for many in the Blogger Alliance. But didn't I hear an interview on a podcast about this Accelerade stuff? I listen to so many they are starting to run together. Except for GYGO! (plug) Those two tri-geeks are hard to forget.

So you all will definitely be hearing a lot from me in the days to come. And I'll be reporting how it's working out with the Accelerade. Here on my blog and on their site (hmmm I have to per an agreement...but I'm still sponsored, "ya, that's the ticket"). I've only been using Gu2O for hydration so now I'll something to compare it to. I'm stoked!

PS. Bonus points for the first one to name who said the quote and from where? (Hint: TV).

PSS. Thanks Marcy, now I feel real great about my self.

At least you can tack on a 30 day supply of hydration that I'm putting in...that gotta be worth a few more extra bucks.

Gosh, I never thought of it as being sponsored, just getting free stuff. Accelerade found me too, you can read about it on my blog if you like. :)

I AM GREEN WITH ENVY. Never got sponsored or mailed any freebies... Must be the exhorbitant mailing costs to send stuff to Singapore...

I just got my accelerade in the mail last week! All I've learned is that the blue flavor tastes like poop.

Well, what didya think?

Kris said...

I am certainly jealous..Accelerade never found me. But oh well, their loss! But totally cool for you though! I am sure it will be an incentive with your training.

I'm going to be trying it out too. It will be interesting to see how you and others feel about it as well.

I got the accelerade, too...and totally agree about the cotton mouth. It is a lot better than the powder mix was though - i tried it once and it upset my stomach.
