Order Your 2013 Iron Girl Commemorative Bead - Time Is Running Out!

A reminder that time is running out to pre-order your 2013 Athleta Iron Girl Columbia commemorative bead presented by EnduraFit.  Please take a moment to look at this year's sterling silver jewelry bead. It has the event date on the back and will fit all other popular brands of charm bracelets. The bracelet is silver plated, and is a free gift with each purchase.

The order deadline for this year's bead has been extended until the end of March. EnduraFit will bring your order to the expo for you to pick up in their booth, or you can have your order shipped to you for a minimal fee. There will be additional decorative beads for purchase at the event, or there are several pre-designed bead & bracelet options available for ordering in advance.
Gatorade

Gatorade Train with what's on course!

Gatorade Endurance Formula is a specialized sports drink designed to sustain hydration during prolonged training and racing when fluid and electrolyte losses can be significant and will be served along the insert event name course. It contains nearly twice the sodium (200mg) and more than three times the potassium (90mg) of Gatorade Thirst Quencher to help sustain hydration, maintain proper fluid balance and replace the critical electrolytes lost in sweat during these occasions.
