We’re only two days into our Where the Road Ends: A Guide to Trail Running launch week and we’re already giving away our third and fourth incredible prize package. Once again, it’ll have a trail runner–new or old–covered from head to toe. Today’s dual men’s and women’s winners will receive amazing prize sets from the likes of The North Face, Ultimate Direction, GU, and Drymax. Don’t worry, we’re not stopping here, as we’ve got in a week’s long series of giveaways. Still, check out today’s contest and enter below!
As we are holding these contests to celebrate the launch of Where the Road Ends perhaps you’ll check out the book. Also, feel free to spread the word about the book however you feel comfortable!
There’s probably no brand more associated with big mountain peaks than The North Face. It’s iconic in the mountaineering world, but the company’s products are no less performance oriented… or capable on the trails that surround you, no matter where you live. Here are the goods that TNF is bringing to the table… and possibly your closet!
- The choice of the Ultra Endurance or the Ultra MT — The former is a great all-around trail running shoe, while the latter is an aggressively-lugged model for burlier adventures.
- A Better Than Naked short or skirt;
- A Better Than Naked Short-Sleeve shirt;
- A Better Than Naked Jacket — A lightweight windbreaker jacket;
- A BTN Hat — To round off the head-to-toe TNF kit; AND
- A Thermoball Full Zip Jacket — You’ve got to stay warm after those chilly trail adventures!
Of course, if you’re running to some far off summit… or going for a solid trail run around your local park you may want to carry some fluids, food, or gear. It’s a good thing that Ultimate Direction has you covered. One lucky lady will win the women’s specific, newly redesigned Ultra Vesta pack along with a Handy 20 handheld water bottle. On the men’s side, the winner will received the newly launched Scott Jurek Ultra Vest 3.0, a pack that’s great for both racing and long adventures, as well as the Fastdraw 20, another solid handheld waterbottle solution.
In my minds, GU is the original energy gel… it’s certainly the first gel I had. In the decade-plus since then, I’ve had many 100s more GUs and it’s still a big part of my fueling mix now. Today’s two lucky winners will get to experiment with fueling with their own boxes of GU Energy Gel, GU Energy Chews, and GU Hydration Drink Mix. Update: GU’s now including a box each of Roctane Energy Gel and Roctane Energy Drink Mix, as well!
Drymax is a fixture in the trail running community and on the trails. We’re psyched to give away another two pairs each of Drymax’s Lite Trail, Trail, and the new Max Pro Trail to both of this contest’s winners!
