Friday Shout Out: ZOOMA’s Personal Best Challenge

You know I’m all about getting out of my comfort zone – when you get out of your comfort zone, there’s a chance for growth and great things to happen.

So when I heard about ZOOMA’s Personal Best Challenge – it was just one more reason to love ZOOMA and I had to give them a shout out!

What is the Personal Best Challenge?

ZOOMA is encouraging women runners to push themselves in 2013 to run a Personal Best – either by taking on a new distance or by pushing your training to the next level to go for that PR. Achieve a Personal Best at one of the ZOOMA races this year and ZOOMA will reward you with a special gift during the post-race party! ZOOMA’s also showing their support along the way by providing training care packages, training plans and tips and sponsoring weekly Twitter chats to keep runners motivated.

When I served as a race ambassador at last year’s Cape Cod race, I met a lot of women running their first half marathon, first 10K…and in some cases, their first race ever – the camaraderie of these races is a great backdrop for first timers! And, from personal experience, I can safely say that hitting a PR on one of ZOOMA’s challenging courses requires you to dig deep! So this idea of encouraging women to push themselves beyond their comfort zone to achieve a personal best seems like perfect fit for ZOOMA!

  1. There were a ton of first timers at Zooma Great Lakes as well. I can’t imagine PR’ing on that course. It was deadly.

  2. Sounds great! I did Zooma Annapolis and really liked it

  3. I really want to do a Zooma race after reading about how much fun people had at ZOOMA Florida! The finisher necklaces were really pretty, and this challenge is an awesome way to inspire people! Are you running another ZOOMA this year?

  4. Very fun! I love it when the race goes beyond just meeting at the starting line – the friendship part is key for me! 🙂
