Dare I?

I just recently posted about this dilemma I have with cash flow and this whole obsession I have with events.

Well, guess who is courting me included me in their mass email in their search to sponsor 100 triathletes, bicyclists and runners. Active.com - for Team Polar. I’m gonna apply.

Do you think they’ll go for this angle:

  • Mother of 3… ages 2, 5 and 8.
  • I have a Polar Heart Rate Monitor, and I so do not look like any of those women pictured on their home page. See below…
  • I have stretch marks, so my apparel will need to cover said stretch marks. I’m modest that way.
  • If I can carry a 55 pound kid on one hip, a 30 pound kid on the other AND negotiate a full shopping cart in the grocery store… I could be the gal for you. Talk about endurance.
  • I never finish first, but I’ve finished every time. And… so far, I’ve gotten faster each time.
  • Hey Polar - let’s do this together - call out the Mutha’s… The Tired, The Weary, but The Capable. Let’s dream togetha’. If this stretch-marked woman can do it, so can other Stretch-Markians. Ummm… I could probably fine-tune this last one a little.

If nothing else, someone will get a good laugh at the application from the crazy lady with 3 little kids and stretch-marks.

    Geez, Jenny, ya just crack me up. I just got one from Active for Team Aquaphor - lots of nice lubricant products as well with that sponsorship - for chaffing I’m sure. I was so close to forwarding that to you, I just never did get around to it, and here you are already being lured in by the big guns. I would much rather get freebies from Polar than from Aquaphor. Hey good luck with that application!

    If they’re smart, they’ll snap you up. Go Stretchies!
