And now for something for those with a competitive streak!

Its competition time, although in this case you can compete from the comfort of your own home!

  

SportsBallShop have always been heavily involved with local sports clubs and teams, providing much-needed equipment and funding. Recently though they have expanded into the online world and started the Sponsor A Fitness Blog campaign to support passionate fitness advocates across the UK.  They have very kindly offered me a few vouchers to offer as competition prizes on FosterRuns.com!

Since I love interaction with readers, the competition is going to be for the most quirky, short story about running (max 250 words), ideally highlighting something funny that has happened to you (or your running partners) in the past and that everyone will enjoy.

I have created a separate ‘Competition stories‘ page above to publish all those that don’t need to be censored for a family audience and we will then have a public vote to find out which are our favourite stories.

The author of each of the top 3 stories will receive a generous £40 voucher to be used on equipment of their choice at one of the following sites which sell: balls of all types SportsBallShop.co.uk; sports bras SportsBras.co.uk; and trampolines EtoysZone.co.uk.

Whilst £40 is only a discount off the cost of a whole trampoline, there is plenty of great stuff that it will buy you on the other two sites… so get writing!

Competition Rules Are: Writers may submit more than one story but only one prize will be allocated per person.  Stories must be submitted by close of play on Saturday 17th December.  Voting will then run until Saturday 31st December and winners will be announced the following day, or thereabouts!  Voting will be via email and each voter will be able to identify their first, second and third favourite story.  There will be no cash alternative to the prize which is provided by SportsBallShop and will be sent direct.  I will be fair and equitable but will have the casting vote if required and my word will be final in any dispute!

The competition is now closed and the winners can be found HERE
