Recognition and $5K is very nice, but giving this young lady an Ad agreement to represent the Brand for a few years would have been even better. Design a pair of running pants named for her. Still, this is a very important step for women to take back ownership of their competitive Sports, whether certain committees back them up or not.
I thought that would be the result...sponsorship...5K? Meh.
I am suspecting such things may be in the works...
