We have some dirty customers…and some winners!

by naturalrunningstore on May 2, 2012

We thought we would have a little bit of fun by showing off your dirty side.  We sent a request out to the Tribe to send us your muddiest, sweatiest pictures. (See contest details at NaturalRunningStore.com)

We have come to a conclusion, you guys are filthy!

We had a few great prizes for the winners.  The first place winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to NaturalRunningStore.com.  We also had a prize for 2nd place and 3rd place.  Each of those winners will receive a one month supply of Action Wipes.  Let’s be perfectly honest here, everyone could use an some of these.

The winner came to us via our nearly world famous Twitter stream.  A big congrats goes to Dwight Clasby @dclaz47 for winning a $50 gift certificate!

 

 

The second place winner and recipient of the one month supply of Action wipes is Michelle Goldberg.  This picture came via the NatuaralRunningStore.com Facebook Fan Page.

 

 

 

Our third place winner of the 30 day supply of action wipes is Matt McGarity.  This picture came to us via Twitter.  You can check out Matt at @McGarityDotMe

 

Thanks for all of the great entries.  We have created a super dirty endurance album on our Facebook Page.  Check it out!

Inov8 Road-X 155: Rave Reviews From The Tribe

by naturalrunningstore on April 28, 2012

We had a customer send us a note recently describing the Inov8 Road-X 155 this way, “As close to magic shoes as there ever will be!”  We couldn’t agree more.  This has been a long time favorite here at NaturalRunningStore.com.

The Inov8 Road-X 155 is a perfect combination of width, flexibility and balance.  Do not let the color or the weight of the shoe mislead you in any way, you are going to get lots of use out of this shoe.

When we posted the above customer comment on our nearly world famous Twitter account , we got nearly instant response from other customers.
