GoGirl Talk

May 22-24 - The GoGirl Team headed east to Stillwater, MN to participate in the inaugural Anytime Fitness Stillwater Marathon.  Turns out 2500 people thought it would be fun to run long distances in the peaks and dips of the St. Croix Valley …and the GoGirls knew that those people needed a brand spankin’ new GoGirl to add to their travel totes.

“Inaugural” was the motto of the weekend, because this was the first time the Mini Cooper has been out to the East Metro.  So, for many people it was the first time that they had heard of GoGirl.  But as we have come to expect, it takes about 30 seconds before most women smile and exclaim, “Where was THIS when I was in ______?”  (fill in the blank, you know you can!)

The GoGirl Team had a blast meeting the marathoners and distance runners and we are looking forward to our next event this upcoming weekend.   Get ready for the GoGirls, Minneapolis Marathon.  Here we come!

Memorial Day Weekend - "Blitz" flexed their muscles and showed off their GoGirl wear at the Hmong Flag Football Tournament this weekend in Dakota County.   GoGirl is very pleased to be sponsoring these active women.

Look for more of Blitz (and more of GoGirl) over the Fourth of July weekend when we storm the McMurry fields in Saint Paul, MN, at the Hmong International Sports Tournament and Freedom Festival!

Are you an active GoGirl signed up for the YWCA all-women triathlon in Minneapolis this August?  Are you riding the RAGBRAI in July?  Do you have an all-women team for the Ragnar relay?  Are you doing the Breast Cancer bike ride or the Breast Cancer 3-day?  Are you doing the Minne-Man?  The Iron Girl?

Please contact amy@go-girl.com if you are interested in wearing a GoGirl t-shirt or racing tank at these events.  We may have a spot for you on our team!

Thanks

In 2008, 2152 bicyclists snaked single-file through the city of Taichung and set the Guinness world record for the world's longest bike parade.  On May 17, 2009, Edina Morningside Rotary set out to demolish that record by gathering 3,000 bikers in an altruistic bike event.  Of course, the GoGirl team was there, looking fabulous in new shirts and excited to make history!

GoGirls Janna, Christine, Jenny, Karin and Amy rode in the parade.  These GoGirls generated lots of attention in the parade line-up and lots of "GOGIRL!" hoots throughout the course.

Meanwhile back at the Mini Cooper and Comfort stations, GoGirls Sarah, Cydney, Katie, and Stephanie were answering questions and selling product like crazy.  As is often the case, people crowded around the GoGirl booth, excited to talk about this new product.

The world record, you ask?  Well, we didn't quite make it.  Organizers estimate that we were about halfway there, but they are positive that this year's event is a great foundation for which to build next year's world record goal.  Maybe you will join us as part of the GoGirl team and help break the record?

May 10 - GoGirls Sarah and Lynne painted Hopkins, MN pink with GoGirl on Sunday. Such a beautiful spring day in the Midwest!!

The GoGirls set up shop with the Mini and talked to women all day long. Most passers by opened the conversation with, “So, what is GoGirl?” and most walked away with a new device that allows them to pee standing up and keep up with their counterparts in any circumstance.
 

Lynne and Sarah enjoyed the queens of Hopkins who agreed to pose for this ultra cute shot. How much better does it get; Tiaras and GoGirls?? Impossibly fun.

April 30-May 3 2009 - The GoGirls took to the skies, and ventured to Novi, Michigan, just outside of Detroit for the Southern Shows biggest Women’s Expo. The GoGirl team --anchored by Ms. Sarah and supported by Linda, Beth and Amy --had a blast in this uncharted territory.

The Novi Expo was a four-day affair catering to women from all walks of life. The GoGirls not-too-scientific study indicated that door busters are not our best clients, but every hour thereafter the momentum kept building to a wild crescendo. By the end of every day our rolling pink GoGirl suitcase was empty, and many women were off learning how to shed the last impediment to easy travel, hiking, camping, road trips, boat trips and parties.

A shout out to our friends at Live with Gratitude who made the weekend even more fun with their friendship and their props. Visit their website for some very unique and beautiful merchandise that exudes the idea that life is like a boomerang—whatever you throw out into the universe, comes back to you --reminding us to live with a gracious spirit. Please support these GoGirls, too!
Thanks to all for a fun extendo-weekend.
