New York, NY August 26, 2008 -- Danskin.com (www.danskin.com) is pleased to announce their "Why I Tri" Video Contest for female triathletes to tell the world why they participate in triathlon.
The video contest features three categories: Change, Fitness, and Renewal. Entrants are encouraged to share their stories of how triathlon changed their life, how triathlon has helped
meet their fitness goals, or how they've used triathlon -- or are using it now -- to recover from a difficult time in their life, such as illness, divorce, or death of a loved one.
Video entries, submitted via Danskin.com's official contest page on YouTube.com will be judged on Creativity & Originality (40%), Demonstration of Real-life Example(s) of why the
individual participates in triathlon (40%), and Excitement & Sincerity evidenced in the entry (20%). The deadline for entries is September 30, 2008.
Fifteen (15) Second Prize Winners (5 in each of the 3 categories) will be awarded a $100 E-Gift Certificate for Danskin.com; three (3) First Prize Winners (1 in each of the 3 categories)
will receive two (2) 2009 Danskin Women's Triathlon Registrations to the race of their choice; and one (1) Grand Prize Winner will receive a trip (including airfare, hotel, airport
transfer and race registration) to the 2009 Danskin Women's Triathlon Series Race at Disney World in Florida.
