The 2012 Outdoor Retailer Winter Market is happening this week, and of course UtahOutside.com will be walking the Salt Palace Convention Center floor checking out all the new gear we can look forward to seeing in stores this fall. But this Outdoor Retailer show will be different, as every step I take will be monitored by a GeoPalz pedometer, which means you can win your own GeoPalz at the show.
What does my step count have to do with Outdoor Retailer and you winning a GeoPalz of your own? Well, UtahOutside.com is participating in the GeoPalz Active Nation OR Challenge! Here’s how it works: five outdoor bloggers will be wearing a GeoPalz on either their shoe or hip, and these cute little pedometers will be logging our every step. Now we know that everyone walks really, really far over the course of several days at Outdoor Retailer, so we’re competing to see who walks the most by the end of the show. GeoPalz booth attendees will be able to vote for which blogger they think will walk the most each day. The blogger that gets the most steps that day, will win that day and the folks at GeoPalz will draw a random fan that chose the winner. That person will win their own GeoPalz!
But hey, I’m not just doing this for you to win a GeoPalz… there’s something in it for me too. You see, by the end of the week the blogger with the most total steps wins a $50 Whole Foods gift card. I want that card. I need to stockpile my energy bars for the year. I’ve been training. Bring it!
So, if you happen to be at the 2012 Outdoor Retailer Winter Market on Thursday through Saturday, head over to GeoPalz booth #BR727, and place your vote.
Along with UtahOutside, other bloggers participating include:
· GearCaster
· Upadowna
· Outdoor Informer
· Gear Junkie
My beer muscles are ready for action. So get to the GeoPalz booth every morning and vote for UtahOutside. Good Luck!
