Workin’ it at the Ukrop Monument Ave. 10k Expo

IMG_8057 What a day! Heck, what a week! I’m working four jobs in two states in one week and getting no sleep as a result! Still, it’s fantastic and I feel alive! It will make me appreciate rest when I get home that much more.

IMG_8059 Today I worked the Bondi Band booth at the Ukrop’s Monument Ave. 10k expo in Richmond. I am loving working this expo because it’s a company I believe in and I’m surrounded by thousands of other runners, but also because I hope to one day work in marketing or management for races.

IMG_8055Seeing an expo before the glitz and glamour was fun!

Working an expo is intense! I was the only person managing my booth so there was no sitting down (or getting refreshments or using the bathroom) for 12 hours! I could have asked the vendor next to me to watch my booth, but we were busy and he was so drab :)IMG_8060I hardly had enough water, but I did manage to consume plenty of calories! The awesome people at Snyder of Hanover, the table across from mine, kept bringing me bags of pretzels to munch on :) I had much more than this :)IMG_8061 The highlights of my day definitely included meeting Katherine and Brittany! Katherine has been reading healthy ashley, but I didn’t know she had a cute little blog, too! Soon after Brittany came up! It was weird how familiar seeing her (gorgeous, by the way) face felt. I always feel like I’m seeing an old friend when I meet fellow bloggers. Nonetheless, perfect! Brittany and I are getting together after the expo tomorrow… I can’t wait!

I left the expo around 9:30 p.m. and tried to find a grocery store but had no luck. I settled on a veggie sub, water and chips from Subway. I’m going to find a grocery store (maybe TJ’s!?!?) in the morning to pick up some things for tomorrow!IMG_8064 I am pooped! Off to bed :)

Have you tried Bondi Bands? What’s your favorite headband?
