Nevertheless, She Persisted - Photo Contest 

When the slogan "Nevertheless, she persisted" ("NTL") came to life, I knew I just had to make an image for our Brokebabes. Not only to relay the message, but to couple it with a running related purpose to show the sheer amount of persisting women have to do in order to simply be a runner.

 

Here is 2017's winner, Jean Gidich-Holbrook. 

In honor of International Women's Day

we are hosting this contest again to look for the new face of the 2018 Brokebabes Running and Nevertheless, She Persisted.

 

Will it be you? 

​

How does the contest work?

​

We want to see YOUR moment of running persistence. It can be a race photo, training photo, any type of running photo, or any photo at all, but remember this is a running themed contest and running photos will most likely be chosen over non running photos. 

 

You must submit your photo through Instagram with the hashtag #brokebabesrunningNTL and tag @brokemansrunning in the photo. We also want to see your hashtag! Please use ONE personal hashtag in your post that represents you. These are required to be entered!!

 

Share your story- we want to hear your story along with your photo! There are no requirements to how you share your story on Instagram. The more you put into it the better. (If chosen to advanced on to Phase 2 you will be required to share your story)

 

Only photos that meet ALL requirements will be considered for the contest.

​

​

The nitty gritty.

 

You must OWN the photo. If it is a photo you did not take then you must have rights to the photo. We will not accept water marked photos or "screen shot" photos. You must have the .jpg or .png file for the photo in order to progress forwards in the contest. If you're not sure if you have the rights to it, just ask.

 

The photo must be of YOU. If there are other runners in the photo you must have their permission to use their faces in the photo or they must be able to be cropped out. If we have to ask for names and contact info of all runners pictured, the photo will not be accepted.

 

Finalists give the right for Brokeman's Running to use all submitted photos as they see fit. Photos will become property of Brokeman's Running and will not be returned to the contestant.

 

Finalists agree to let Brokeman's Running use the final photo as they see fit for any and all apparel and merchandise use and sales. They forfeit the right at any profiting off of the use of the photo and agree to let Brokeman's Running use the photo for as long as they wish and cannot ask to pull the photo out of print or production.
