As I’ve mentioned a couple hundred times, I love Skirt Sports! I have to thank them again for hooking up our Ragnar team with these great capri pants. We got tons of compliments on them all weekend long.
So when I was asked to write about their new campaign, #RealWomenMove, I jumped at the chance. While looking at the picture of our team, you can see we are so different. We are different ages, heights, sizes, paces, nationalities yet we all joined together as a team to accomplish a shared goal. But none of that matters. We are a group of women: moms, friends, wives, sisters, teachers, lawyers, engineers, counselors, librarians, stay at home moms and more.
Real Women
We work hard to achieve our goals. Sometimes we accomplish them and sometimes we don’t. Sometimes we are disappointed and sometimes elated. Most of the time we are amazing moms, wives and friends but occasionally we are not.
We support each other in our fitness endeavors and enjoy running together. We strive to set good examples for our kids on how to live active healthy lives.
We are Real Women
I love all that this campaign stands for. In my role as Chapter Leader for our Moms Run This Town group, it has always been my goal to make all women feel comfortable on our runs. We’ve always been a place where women of all fitness levels and abilities can come together and feel supported and encouraged where they can be Real. That is what Skirt Sports is all about. A place where all women can come together and feel accepted and secure.
#RealWomenMove
Now onto my Skirt Sports Giveaway! The 13er virtual run on June 14th.
Each June Skirt Sports hosts a virtual 13er run in addition to the actual race near Boulder, CO. What’s so great about the virtual race is that you can run it anytime that weekend. You can run all 13 miles at once or split it up and run it over the course of a few days. It’s your race-you decide.
Skirt Sports Virtual races have the best swag too!
I am giving away 1 basic entry into the 13er Virtual which includes: The finisher skirt, a $50 Skirt Sports Gift Certificate and some other race swag. Race Swag doesn’t get much better than that!
So who wants to run with me (Virtually) on June 14th? Join me in celebrating #RealWomenMove
linking up Diatta & Shiela & AnneMarie

I loved our capris too- so glad SS had an option to suit us all and that they matched so well with our road runner tanks I’d organised. We were definitely the best dressed team there (I thought anyway).
Deborah Brooks says
I thought so too! 🙂

Yay for virtual races (aka probably the only type that I can participate in right now)!

Deborah Brooks says
That’s ok they are fun and no pressure!

I have never run a virtual race- the concept is pretty cool tho! Good inspiration and a lower race entry fee probably!? The skirt and rest of the swag looks great for the 13er~ Thanks for offering a great giveaway!

Thank you for stopping by and entering. Yes virtual races are great and no pressure just run when ever you’d like.
Natalie says

Sandra Laflamme says
Looks like your team had a blast at Ragnar Cape Cod! Such a beautiful weekend for the relay. Plus I bet you were the best looking team on the course!!!! Can’t wait for the 13er!!!!
Deborah Brooks says
Well of course we were! #RealWomenMove. We had 3 ambassadors on our team and lots of skirts!!

Sandra Laflamme says
Skirt Sisters for Sure! 13er here we come!

Courtney @ Eat Pray Run DC says
june 14 is my wedding anniversary! not sure yet what we’ll be doing but probably not much running 🙂 by the way, i love y’alls pants in the pic 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
Wow I remember all your pics last summer. Can’t believe it’s been a year. Yesterday was my 20th anniversary. Like a blur!
Mary Long says
What a great campaign! I am already enjoying the tags on Instgram. It is all very inspiring, Those capris are really cute BTW…
Deborah Brooks says
It is inspiring! I love the capri pants too!
GiselleR @ Diary of an ExSloth says
I think it’s great to empower women. But something about the ‘real women’ part rubs me the wrong way. A woman isn’t less than real if she doesn’t live an active lifestyle. I’m sure that wasn’t the intention, but it still comes off like that.
Anyway, I love what the campaign stands for and I hope you enjoy the virtual race!
Deborah Brooks says
I believe the “real women” means that women come in all shapes and sizes and we should all be able to feel comfortable wearing the clothes. The ambassadors and models on their site show women of all ages and body types.
Jess @hellotofit says
I love the philosophy of Real Women Move 🙂 I’ve never run a virtual race before..
Deborah Brooks says
They are fun! No pressure at all
Patty @ Reach Your Peak says
I’ve never done a virtual race! I am running a 10K the day before, so I know I’ll be taking the day or two off after, but maybe the next one!
Deborah Brooks says
You can totally count your 10k the day before as miles. There is no “reporting” your mileage so it’s fine to spread it out over a few days. Might as well enter just for the bling!

Nice event. Skirts are really awesome workout clothes. Fashionable, comfortable and fresh.
