Happy Friday everyone! I am so excited to bring you this awesome giveaway today. I was given the chance to create my own personalized shirt from My Race Ragz, and while I got to create mine for free- one of my lucky readers will too! I have always wanted to personalize something to run in, and I am now hooked!
You may have noticed my posts on instagram, I love this shirt. I have seen a lot of bloggers with personalized shirts, but as soon as I got the chance I was worried! I do not own Photoshop and was at a loss at what size was needed or how it would look, what I wanted, and all of a sudden just lost at the whole process!
Good news is that the websites is full of funny, inspirational, running quotes, motivational, and normal race slogan designs all ready for you to click, pick, and be done.
I am “Miss can’t pick anything” ( see my 7 months to decide on a paint for my table and chairs…) and couldn’t find anything I liked. What can I say, I wanted to design my own and was just scared to do it. So I decided to hit Google to see if I could find a way to use picmonkey.com to make my shirt graphic.
This is my design that I spent all of 10 minutes on. I was staring at it like do I love it? Will this look ok on the shirt? I was worried that it would be screened printed on and leave all that plastic lettering on and just feel terrible while running. Great news is … they use a super fancy process so it is both soft, and breathable!
My Race Ragz only offers white custom running shirts via the website. We dye your graphics into the fabric of the shirt so that the shirt retains all of the performance capabilities to wick sweat and breathe. Silk screening and other printing methods prohibit these abilities where the graphics are applied.
So this means all of the shirts are white so that when you say put a blue ink on a yellow shirt—you do not get green. So white it is. Which they are awesome shirts, true to size and very comfy. I have been wearing my weight lifting because well life in a walking cast is cardio limited banned.
The site is very user friendly, and you can even create on their website if you do not want to mess with creating a graphic but still customize it.
What I really liked about the site is that it told me on my first graphic that it would not come out right for what I was trying to do and alerted me so while I was creating. It gives great tips on size and type of file you should upload in their FAQs. They have a GREAT customer service that can help you along too.
I barely could figure out what I wanted for the front, so I did not put any writing on the back of my shirt but kind of regret it now. ( I hope you utilize my missed opportunity!!)
Unlike other customized shirt sites, you can order 1-1000 or more. I love that I can make just one for myself, and not commit to a batch of shirts. You even get a 10% discount for orders over 10 shirts if you are buying for a running club or event.
I was so excited when I wore my shirt to the gym and got so many complements! It is super comfy, and perfect for working out in.
Now for the giveaway part! My Race Ragz has offered one customized shirt for one of my readers. You will get to pick and customize all the details as much or as little as you want! Follow the details of the Widget below to make sure your answers count 🙂

I would like something along the lines of “What’s your hurry, even the slowest runner gets a medal” for all of us back of the pack runners.
Haha, great idea!
cute shirt! Sad I missed the giveaway, but that’s what happens when you’re a bad blogger for a week or two! Maybe next time! Also, I love Meg’s saying – I’m totally at the back of the pack and super slow!!
Me too girl, me too 😉
Wonderful giveaway!
Hmm not sure what I’d customize though. I’ll have to think on that! 😀
This seems awesome! I love that it is a performance shirt 🙂
I would love to win this giveaway! I will begin training soon for my first 1/2 marathon!
I’d probably put my motto – I can and I will! xo
Great motto!!
Hmmm… thats a hard one. So many ideas. I’d have to come up with something funny is my style.
I am glad I am not the only one that finds it hard!
I like the Shakespeare quote, “Thou she be but little, she is fierce.” Think it would be great on a shirt!
“When you can’t run, you crawl. And when you can’t crawl, You find someone to carry you.”

Thank so much for hosting this giveaway!!! Super cute shirts!! 🙂
Love it! That is an awesome saying, and so true for me 😉
Thanks!
I’m totally like you – super indecisive!! So I’d definitely have to spend awhile playing around with it. I love some of the motivational quotes that I’ve seen on shirts and tanks lately, so I’d have to think about which one to choose!
I would make one with for my blog!
I love this shirt!
Thanks!
What a great giveaway! I would want to do something involving my blog, Girl Gone Veggie!
I love this shirt! I’d probably do something similar with half marathons.
I love the shirt designs they have for bicycling. I’d probably go for something along the lines of a century or 100 miles since I completed my first century ride last fall.
Congrats! That would be an awesome shirt to commemorate your achievement.
“stronger with every mile! <3 running!"
That is pretty awesome! IDK what I’d put on a shirt, I’d have to get some ideas from my kiddos. 😉
Awesome! I don’t know what I’d put on a shirt, I’d have to consult my creative team. (My kiddos)
