POSITIVE MEDIA EXPOSURES

Many of you are quoted in local journals and newspapers, or have your pictures posted following great race finishes. I want to reward you for giving Brooks positive exposures in the media. For 2009, I will be posting a form on our Web site that you can download and complete when you have such an exposure. If you are quoted in a journal, newspaper, or Web forum and you mention “Brooks” or “Brooks I.D.” I will give you $25 to purchase Brooks products online at brooksrunning.com. Similarly, if you have your picture published clearly wearing Brooks gear, you are eligible to receive the same award. These awards will be limited to 4 per individual, for a $100 maximum. Look for the form online in the next few weeks!

2009 UNIFORMS

For the 2009 campaign we will be using the I.D. Elite Short (men’s/women’s), Speed Short, and I.D. Elite Singlet /Tank for racing. The red I.D. Singlet is fine as well. There are big plans for uniforms in 2010, but product development takes time, so please plan to order the I.D. Elite gear (formerly called Infiniti) for 2009.

>>See the entire I.D. Elite collection.

HOUSTON, DISNEY, OR 3M?

If you have registered to run any of these three races in January, you are eligible for the first Age Group Awards of 2009! All you need to do is email me and tell me which race you are running, and your goal time. The top Open, Sub-Master, and Master female and male runners in each race will win an award package. Also, the individual who finished closest to his or her goal time will win as well. Good luck!

USATF XC CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS

On Dec. 13, many I.D. Members will be racing in Spokane, WA, at the USATF XC Club Championships. In addition to our members racing for their respective club teams, we have a Men’s Open and Masters team representing the Brooks I.D. Program. Below is the list of athletes competing for team #220. Also, all Brooks-sponsored athletes are welcome to join us for a post-race social with appetizers and drinks at the Spokane Winger’s Grill & Bar, (14742 E. Indiana Ave. at the Valley Mall), from 4-6 p.m. Wish us luck!
