Sock it to me

... Otherwise known as the post where I make an announcement where you might want to, quite literally, sock it to me.

I've been selected as a PRO Compression ambassador for 2014.

For the uninitiated (and, maybe, socially media unaware), PRO Compression is a maker of compression socks, compression sleeves and low-cut trainer socks for athletes and everyday folks. The company was created by Eric Smith, who was a participant in endurance sports (triathlons and marathons) and golf, when he had the idea to create a compression sock for everyday life. PRO Compression's socks are functional and fun - sporting bright and seasonal designs.

I'm sure you are thinking: Ugh. Who cares? More product placement. Good. For. Her.

And, yes, PRO Compression will be mentioned on the blog on a regular basis - think monthly - as I share the company's sock of the month design, discounts and other news. There is something in it for you, though; chances for you to try the socks for yourselves through semi-regular giveaways.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I will get free products, too, and I'm excited for it. However, I wouldn't have applied for nor accepted the opportunity had I not already been a fan of the product and the company. I wear - and have worn - compression socks for recovery since my second half marathon in 2010 and find them to be a critical piece of gear to my running success (with success being a loose term).

I do promise to you, my lovelies, that I will do my best to be authentic. I know no other way.

Discount: And because I couldn't post this without a discount, use code "FEB14" for free shipping and 40 percent off compression socks and calf sleeves.
