I checked out the video posted and I must say I am impressed with the advocacy. I won't tell much because it's better if you watch the video yourself.
I recommend that you turn up the volume and open in full screen so you can read it clearly.
Impressed? I bet you are! So after I watched the video I talked to the owner of the store who happens to be Mr. Francis Razon.
After a long chat with Francis over Facebook, I was more impressed with the product. So I told him I'm gonna pay a visit to his store so I could learn more and see the product personally. I booked myself to visit his shop on Wednesday, April 20th.
I am so excited to come. I asked my best bud, Marie to accompany me to my visit.
So finally, I met the brainchild of EatPrayRun in person and I had a great time with him. I asked him tons of questions in which he was so accommodating to answer.
So, what's EatPrayRun all about?
EatPrayRun™ is a limited collectible running gear. It may come as a t-shirt, singlet, running shorts etc. etc.
The period for purchase of every EatPrayRun™ edition is limited only for 2 months.
30% of EatPrayRun™ ’s net profit from every edition is dedicated to charity hence the wishes.
When you buy EatPrayRun™ you’ll be asked to make two wishes. A personal wish & a charitable wish.
After the closing of our edition sales, EatPrayRun™ will choose and announce the wishers and the wishes that he will be granting.
The chosen wishers and the provision of the personal & charitable wishes will be featured in EatPrayRun™ ’s website, facebook page & EatPrayRun™TV (Youtube).
The number of the wishers that will be chosen will depend on the edition sales.
EatPrayRun™ intends to grant many wishes as possible.

My thoughts on EatPrayRun:
- I love the advocacy!
- The marketing strategy is catchy.
- The shirt material is good, especially the dri-fit.
- The fit and the length of the shirt is perfect for me!
- I am already XL so larger women would opt for the men's size.
- It'll be nicer if the print is reflectorized.
- The design is simple but attractive. Very unisex.
- I've already road tested the Dri-Fit Shirt on my LSD Run of 19K in 2 hours 40 minutes and I must say it's comfortable for long runs!
What's with the Stick Man and the Alien Eyes?
- You mean the logo? Haha! I made it myself. I used "Paint" (The application in Microsoft) in creating that. My aim is just to make a simple design that's why I came up with it. The alien eyes you are referring to is not really alien eyes, it's a heart. But when I made my trial print out, it looked so girly so I decided to make it more separated, that's why it looked like that.
So, besides this, what are your future plans?
- Like you, I also want to support runs for a cause. So given that idea I want to create my own advocacy of running for a cause and to write a blog as well. Do you think "Hope Runner" is already taken?
My visit at the EatPrayRun Store was a great experience. Thank you very much Mr. Francis Razon for sharing to me your advocacy and for the great hospitality you have shown during my visit. Oh, and also for the free Dri-fit shirt and the fulfilling dinner as well. It is much appreciated!

I hope runners will support merchandises like this. It's not like getting another shirt for running, it's about making your wishes come true and helping out those who are in need all at the same time. Sweet isn't it?
Good Vibes everyone and Sweet Running! ^_^
