LARABAR Giveaway Winner!

Alright...I'll be honest. If I could figure out a way to pick myself for this giveaway I would. Larabars just make me so happy. Lucky for you all, I can't pick myself, and hubs didn't enter, so one of you gets to win. Between comment entries and a few more on Facebook, we have a total of 263 entries. Put that into Random.org, and the winner is....


And comment 189 belongs to...Britt at Chicago Runner Girl!


Congrats Britt! If you have never checked out her blog before...be prepared to be impressed. Nothing major, just 5ks in 19:26 and other leisurely jogs like that. Seriously, I promise her blog will inspire you. She is an amazing runner!

If you didn't win this one, don't despair! I've got another giveaway coming up soon. Just reviewing it first so you can all see how wonderful it is.

Question: what would you like to see a giveaway for? Obviously this is geared toward running/fitness/healthy eating, but are there other items you would be interested in?
In case anyone is wondering, I would like an elliptical trainer. You should probably give one away on your blog so I can win, thanks.

    Congrats to Britt!! Checking out her blog now... though with a leisurely 5k time of <20 min, I might go eat a bowl of ice cream instead.

    Another giveaway I didn't win. I'm off to go cry. I'd like to win a lifetime supply of wine. Or a plumber to come to my house and make my pipes give me COLD water so I can take proper ice baths. Actually I'm dying to try real compression tights. I also like the ones for different kinds of Gus so I can see what else is out there. Or a race entry sounds great!

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...

Active Bands Review and Giveaway

Click this link at your own risk, but let it suffice to say that I have some wild hair. No, not a couple of curls. A wild, beastly tangle that is NOT allowed out on its own. Ever. So running is a challenge. A ponytail is a given...and then usually a bun. I tried a few different headbands in the past, but they all end up "sweating off" and either annoying me completely or just falling onto the floor. Enter Active Bands. I wish there was some kind of heavenly gate chimes or something to accompany this post. I feel that strongly. I know there are a few "running" bands specifically designed to keep your hair in place, and I can't speak for them all because I haven't tried them all, but of every one I have put to the test, Active Bands are the only ones that work. I read about them so much on blogs that I bought my own to try out several months ago. I purchased two, and then basically alternated them day in and day out. You probably recognize them (black and...

Just a Handful is Enough! Bra Review and Giveaway

You know those people who said running is the cheapest sport because all you need is shoes? Well, they're clearly not women. For me to have a successful run, I need a good pairs of shoes, wicking socks, shorts that don't chafe me, a non-cotton top, my Garmin, some body glide, and a sports bra. And let's be honest here--sometimes finding the right bra can be the most difficult part of all.  For my chest size (aka the cups aren't exactly "running over") it seems like sports bras come in two styles: 1) flattening compression bras 2) completely unsupportive bras Well, call me vain if you want, but I like to have support when I run, and also keep a little shape. And I definitely want people to recognize that I'm a woman when I run past! That's why I'm so excited to be the proud new owner of a  HANDFUL  bra!  I'm in love!  Handful bras  are designed to "flatter, not flatten" and it's true! Removable pads contour the body and keep so...
