Out & About

Phew, what a week! We’ve finally unpacked from Outdoor Retailer, but we’re still riding the high from being there!! It was inspiring to be among so many incredible people who have created awesome products...and pretty pleasing that many of them had already heard of us! Super-ambassador Lindsey Brown was there with us to spread the Lily Love, and Ambassador Elite Krissy Moehl also came by to say “hi”. We made lots of new contacts (woot-woot!) and even more new friends. One woman came by for her first pair of compression socks...and came back for more after a couple hours of walking, haha! The event was huge and the opportunity was profound--we’re thrilled to have been there!!

What an amazing weekend! The Mercy Baltimore Women’s Classic 5K (second oldest women-only race in the country!) took place on Sunday, and Lily Trotters was there to represent! First, we geared up for race day by joining Charm City Run on Saturday for packet pick-up at their Timonium location and making sure participants had fresh and fun compression socks for the challenge. Then, we were there bright and early under one of the vendor tents to educate women of all athletic backgrounds about the benefits of compression--and to show off our style! Two of our awesome ambassadors--Lauren and Karen--also showed major pizazz at the finish line, making 2nd and 3rd in their age groups. Woot-woot! We’ll see you all at the 44th BWC next year!

Can you say “team spirit”?  That’s how we feel after this week at Fleet Feet’s Let’s Go Show in Minneapolis!!  We are so grateful to have been included by Fleet Feet. Not only did we get to spend the week with their corporate and nationwide team of stores, but we’re thrilled to now be on their shelves nationwide!

 


We also got to spend quality time with some other incredible brands carried at Fleet Feet, like GOODR, Momentum Jewelry and Handful, who we joined for an outing to a Twins game. So, thanks again to Fleet Feet for inviting us and creating opportunities for new and exciting partnerships.  

Want to know if our line is carried in a Fleet Feet near you? Visit Lily Trotters store finder to find out, and if we aren’t, let them know you'd like to see us there. Wink.

CCR has reached some very happy anniversaries! Lily Trotters was there to help celebrate Charm City Bel-Air's 13th birthday and support the awesome women of Charm City Timonium who were training for their next 5K. What's better than time spent with treats, great deals, and energized people? Then, Charm City Timonium blew out their 16 candles!! We're so excited that this local store has flourished and expanded and remains so dedicated to its community. What's more, so many people are discovering that the benefits of compression extend beyond workout...one woman came to the store specifically for compression to wear during her pregnancy! We are so grateful to Charm City for hosting and can't wait to mark the next milestone with them!
