I’ve been stalking my email the majority of this week.  You’ve heard of stalking your mailman when you’re waiting for a package, right?  Well,visualize me refreshing my email a zillion times a day waiting for a certain email to come.

That was me starting Monday through yesterday afternoon.

Why?

Tailwind Nutrition was going to be announcing the names of their Trailblazers towards the end of February and I was on pins and needles waiting to hear if I had made it.  The suspense was killing me!

*me when I wasn’t refreshing my email.  😉

Knowing me for the calm, cool and collected person I am (not!), I’m sure you can imagine the huge ‘WHOOP!” and “Woo-Hoo!!!” that I let loose when I opened this email:

Welcome to the 2017 Trailblazer Team!

Hi Melinda,   We are excited to announce that you have been selected as a Tailwind Trailblazer for 2017!

YAY!!!!

I tried Tailwind about a year ago.  I knew I needed to figure out my nutrition for my 100 Miler and all the marathons I was running.  The fueling I had been using (gels and chomps), they just weren’t doing the job.  By the end of a marathon, if I ever saw another gel it would be too soon.  LOL!!!

The reality that my fueling would be detrimental to my uber long Ultra’s hit home.  I HAD to figure this out.  That’s when I heard about Tailwind and decided to give it a try.

GAMECHANGER!!!

It was a night and day difference in my running and energy levels and my tummy loved it!  I haven’t looked back.

I am a very happy runner!

So, when I opened that email?  I was over the moon excited!  The opportunity to be associated with this product was waaaayy more than I ever thought I’d have the privilege to do.

I am #blessed.

Thank you, Tailwind!!!
