Me...a model??????

I follow a group on facebook called "Salt Lake Running Co." They are a company that has quite a few stores here in the Salt Lake Valley. They posted that they were having a "Ladies Night Running Expo" and they were looking for regular ladies to come and model some of their clothes. I sent them an email with my info and the next week they sent me a response saying they wanted to have me model their things!! I was so excited :) 

I am not a model...or even close to it for that fact...I am not stick thin...I am not 5 foot 9 inches...and I am a lot older then 19 :) But I figured how bad could it be, I would be modeling running clothes, which I love! and I would only be modeling them in front of ladies.

They had me and 2 other ladies there to model. They had me model 3 different outfits.

These are them.

 All I had to do was walk down an isle full of ladies...and stand up on a stage while the hostess talked about the clothes I had on, who they were made by, their function, that kind of stuff. The audience was great, they clapped a lot for me...and we were actually laughing together at a few spots.

Shawntell went with me to be my "personal photographer" I wanted the moment documented because I didn't know if I would ever choose to do this again...or even if they would let me do it again. But out of all the pictures she took, my favorite one was actually taken in the dressing room! It was a fun night, they gave each of us a cute headband and a $25 gift card to spend at the store. They had food and fun door prizes to give out. Shawntell won an amazing backpack. It is something I would definitely do again...if given the chance.
