For Body Glide! bing, bang boom. What a day!
This morning I spent a solid 10-15 minutes searching desperately for my Body Glide which wandered off sometime over the weekend and has not yet returned. My 4 miles yesterday were TORTURE. I did not want to repeat today. Of course, thanks to not being able to locate it I only ran 1.5 miles so I guess either way it helped.
Supremely pissed off, I logged into Twitter from the parking lot of Gold's Gym and tweeted the following:
I really love that my body glide is missing. And by love I mean hate with a passion capable of ruining my day.
Which prompted my decision to give it away as part of my prize pack. No one should ever be without this stuff- I swear by it. Trust me, Vaseline does not work as well AT ALL. It'll do in a pinch but really...for the long haul- not worth it.
A short time later (ahem a few hours which is wayyy too long) I got an email stating Body Glide was following me. Excellent. Still haven't found my actual stick so I tweeted this:
@BodyGlide found me on Twitter. Now if only I can find it in my apt.
Shortly after that (and I mean a few minutes- damn!) I got a direct message asking me my address and the type of products I use. I'm basic and just use the antichafe. Barbie just clued me in to the fact that they even have a For Her version!
The response will forever endear Body Glide in my heart:
Nothing boring about a runner and blogger. Thanks for helping to spread the word about our products. We appreciate it.
The only thing I love more than not having a ridiculous rash between my thighs is flattery so YOU WIN BODY GLIDE!

Bill from BodyGlide is awesome!! i love my free bodyglide from him and he will send you the small one that is perfect for half marathons since you can carry is along!!
Yeah the minute I got the dm I was like, I'm pulling a Barbie! Whoo!
that is awesome!!! Body glide is pretty much a life saver for me.
BTW - I plan on donating to your contest dealie. I'm "working" right now but will donate hopefully tomorrow. (my little bro has colitis)
Adam- I know a lot of people swear by Body Glide and I was one of the ones not willing to spend the money. But then, after a clinic at a local running store, I felt awkward not buying something and it was pretty much the cheapest thing in the store so I bought it. Will never use vaseline again unless forced to!
Also, thanks for the future donation. Let me know your bro's name and I will add it to my jersey...OR body. I haven't decided how I am doing this yet!
