Banjee Review and Giveaway!

So excited to bring you all another giveaway. While this one is definitely an amazing product for runners, it's also great to have with you...anywhere! If you are anything like me, before you set out on a run you have to figure out what you need to carry with you, and where to fit it. Between gels, chews, keys, even a phone--I need a small purse. I've tried things to fit around my waist--and they just don't feel right. So I asked Sprigs if I could try out their Banjee wrist wallets on some runs and review them here.


Success! Sprigs makes these wrist wallets in a ton of styles/sizes/colors, which I love. Each one is reversible, so you get a more solid color on one side, a fun design on the other. I even got one that is reflective in the dark--perfect as the sun sets earlier and earlier now! The smaller ones are perfect for a gel and some keys, and they DON'T move around when you run. Bonus. 


I also got to try one of the larger ones, which I thought would be perfect for a phone. I have a pretty big phone, but it fit in nice and snug. I think it might annoy me for a long run of 3+ hours, but on short runs it was really convenient. Can you believe I can run with a huge phone on my arm and be ok??



I got to try three different Banjees, and each one was for a different purpose. I think I may have to invest in a few more...obviously I need one to match every running shirt I own. I also thought these would be great when you're traveling--stick it under your sweater and you don't have to carry around a purse all day. Hooray! As a note: I have tiny wrists, so I pushed mine up on my forearm, where it stayed in place perfectly. 


So...ready to get your hands on your own Banjee? You'll be in great company--aside from me, they were also worn by some of the lovely ladies on Nuun's Hood to Coast team! The lovely folks at Sprigs have graciously offered to send the winner any Banjee they choose, so get excited! Here's how to win (leave a comment for each entry):


+1: Let me know you are a follower of Gourmet Runner, or become one! (Mandatory)
+1: Like Sprigs on Facebook HERE and tell them Gourmet Runner sent you!
+1: Visit their WEBSITE and pick out which Banjee you would like best
+1 Like Gourmet Runner on Facebook!
+1: Spread the word about this giveaway on your blog, Facebook, or twitter, and let me know!

The giveaway will run until Sunday, September 25th at midnight, so get your entries in!

I received these items from Sprigs at no cost, but the opinions are entirely my own.

Race the Bar 5k Recap (AKA: A Personal Worst!)

Do you remember a few weeks back, when I was all braggy about running in Florida in February/March? Sunny mornings around a lake with a light breeze off the water have turned, cruelly, into humid stretches of time where I am humbly reminded of my own limitations. You guys, I see these gazelle-like creatures, men and women alike, who prance on my running route with compression socks, a soft glow of perspiration at their brow. It's beautiful. It's also a harsh reminder that I am not them. I am currently running in the thinnest, smallest items of clothing I can without offending anyone (shirt stays on, people). I dare not step outside without some awful visor or wide-brimmed hat. When I hop in the shower after a run, my face is a deep crimson that causes my husband to voice his concern for my general well-being. Have I mentioned this is what happens after my easy runs, with a few walk breaks thrown in? Yeah. It's humbling. Now, I'm not complaining. It's beautiful

Brace Yourselves: Cuteness is Coming

One of the hardest things about moving, for me, was wondering how the cats would adjust each time. Although our cats are super travelers at this stage, I feel really guilty every time we have to pack them up and force them onto a plane. I remember my grandma telling me years ago that when she moved with a cat, they put butter on their paws. That way, the cats spent the first day in a new house licking their paws to get them clean, and that was enough time to lose the "smell" of the old house. I love that story, and I wish the same principle applied to longer moves. Anyway, that's a super long intro to say that for the fellow cat ladies out there, our three fur babies are insanely happy in this jungle gym of a home here in Florida. It's warm, there are plenty of sunny spots to curl up a take a nap, and they have lots of room to spread out. Despite the space, of course, they still usually want to take a nap on my head at night. Obviously. They also love climbing on ou

Running Jewelry Giveaway from The Run Home!

Running has a tendency at times to make me feel just a little less feminine that I might like. The curves might disappear just a little (well...the top ones at least. Bottom ones are still out in full force) and I spend more time fiddling with my Garmin than I do putting on make-up. So I love when I can show my interest in running with a beautiful, feminine piece of jewelry. I recently received two necklaces from the great people at The Run Home.   They have an Etsy store full of inspirational necklaces, bracelets and more for athletes. I received this beautiful necklace in the mail from them: A cute running shoe, heart, and a hand-stamped 26.2 charm. In all honesty, I don't think I'll wear this until I have finished the marathon in November. Kind of like wearing a race shirt before you completed the race! But it will make the perfect reward and I can't wait to wear it with pride. The Run Home sent everything to me perfectly packaged--like it was a gift. I loved that:
