RUNNING GEAR GIVEAWAY [CLOSED]

This morning after hitting the snooze button 6 times, Billy really loves it when I do that; I finally peeled myself up out of bed.  I turned on Modern Family and started running on my treadmill.  Besides thinking about how the tag on my shorts was tearing the skin off of my back (PS for my first marathon training, I thought that the chaffing mark on my lower back from my shorts was skin cancer and it freaked me out. I didn’t know what chaffing was and it didn’t hurt until I was in the shower) I didn’t think about a thing besides how hilarious Phil is.

8 miles later and I had approximately 7 minutes to get ready for school, I am looking mighty fine today, don’t be jealous.

—————————————————————-

Do I have something beautiful for you today!  Before we know it the sun will be shining all day again and we will all be happily running around in the sun again (or I could have used these to protect my eyeballs during my blizzard run on Saturday).  What would be the perfect accessory that you NEED in order to enjoy your run and protect your eyes……..

Reply

I would use those sunglasses for running & skiing. I have very sensitive eyes & have not invested in a pair of sunglases for sports, and all of my “fashion” pairs are huge & bounce all over the place. I actually “borrowed” my 5 year olds sunglasses to run yesterday because they are the only ones in the house that fit snugly.

Reply

Favorite running accessory has to be my (pink, yeah!) Ipod nano. It’s the newest version, so it has the clip built in, no armband necessary. I despise running without music!

Reply

I would use these glasses for cycling. I’m not a big fan of wearing sunglasses of any type when running, but they’re a must when road biking!

My favorite running accessory is my Garmin Forerunner 305. I like running off-road and it makes it SUPER easy for me to track my distances and paces! :)

I would wear these either biking or on days it just isn’t bright enough to wear my dark sunglasses. I wear contacts that dry out really easily and I CAN’T STAND wind directly on my eyes, so I’m ALWAYS wearing sunglasses (even when it really is too dark to be safe).

My favorite running accessory is sunglasses. I wear sunglasses in the rain, snow, sleet, sunshine, sunset, & sunrise. You see, I feel invisible while wearing sunglasses while I run. Like no one can see me struggling and screaming at myself to “keep running” at mile 16. This, my friend, is why sunglasses are necessary for my runs.
P.S. I’m in love with your blog ;-)

Reply

I LOVE to run to music. I can appreciate running ear bud free, just hearing the soft thumping of my shoes on the path, especial in the Fall when there are crispy leafs to tramp on… but I love running to music. Keeps me speed motivated and distracted from my side cramps, screaming calves or freezing body parts. :) My ipod is my favorite running accessory.

Reply

I have been focusing on my Triathlons this year and those new Sunglasses would be a wonderful addition to my Tri gear, even though I live in Washington and the sun only shines 3 months a year! Also handy for hiking…

Reply

The accessory I can’t live without is hair bands. My hair is down to my waist, and I worked out once with it down (forgot a hair band) and it was so hot and gross I will never do it again.

Reply

And for my extra entry, I would use these sunglasses as my incentive to finally start running outside. I’m still new at running and thus far have stuck to the treadmill, but the glasses will make me feel cool enough to boost my confidence in running outside for all to see. (right?) :)

my FAVE running accessory is my armband to hold my phone – it’s cheap, it’s no-name, but it works. it keeps me from looking at the time & the distance {since it’s all up on my arm & such}, which enables me to just run & not think about it. :)

Reply
