There Had to Be a Better Way

That’s what the founder, Graham Henshaw of PaceTat said which ultimately led to the brilliant invention of what is known as PaceTat.  Runners that have been training hard to reach a goal time for there marathon can’t do without one of these.

pacetat As the name implies, PaceTat is a removable tattoo that help keep marathon runners on pace during the marathon so that they can finish within their goal time. PaceTat (as pictured)  measures 1-1/2″ wide by 6-1/4″ long gets tattooed to the underside of your forearm.  PaceTat is made with 100% FDA approved ingredients, so should be safe for your skin.  Pacetat has made it easier than ever to keep check on your times during the race plus it gives mile splits as well as kilometer splits.

There’s no issue about the comfort as it’s part of your skin.  Easy to take off with baby oil or rubbing alcohol after your marathon, but will easy last for a few days on your arm just in case you are thinking about back to back marathons.

In the very near future, I would really like to qualify for Boston.  It will take some work and discipline on my part, and I will definitely be sporting a PaceTat as part of my running kit.

    I used PaceTat for the first time in a half Marathon I posted a personal best time and found the PaceTat did its job and more, motivating me throughout the race. Fantastic product easy to get on and off. I have two upcoming races and will be using PaceTat again.
