Run Like a Girl Necklace Winner + Nike Deals!


Did you really think I would let you find out the winner at the beginning? Come on now, people. Not a chance. First you have to earn it by reading my blog and looking at my pictures. My giveaway, my rules.

Thanks to a $25 off coupon AND a $5 off coupon that were set to expire, I went to the Nike outlet yesterday to see if anything caught my eye. In brief? Lots caught my eye. I left after paying $26, and scored the following: a pair of running capris, two t-shirts, a pink running tank and a set of socks (boring, for the hubs). I consider that a huge SUCCESS. Drool away:

My favorite deal of the day!

All for $26 after coupons...yes!!!



Alright, now the good stuff for you guys. The winner of The Run Home "Run Like a Girl" necklace is...








Watch MeGo Run is the winner! Congrats Meg! Send me an email with your information and I'll get the necklace in the mail to you. Meg is running a half marathon today, so head over and wish her luck, or read all about how she did once it's finished!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Sunday!

What is the best shopping deal you've ever gotten?
This Nike trip is definitely at the top. I always shop on sale and clearance racks but I rarely get into coupons. I'm starting to for a few things and I'm very pleased with the results!

Does anyone else go shopping, come home and immediately have a fashion show in the living room?
Of course not. That's ridiculous. I would never....

Ok, fine. Every. Single. Time. I go shopping.

    I do a fashion show for the Hubby. And sometimes I feel guilty for buying myself nice stuff so I'll go out and get him something too. Usually in the form of socks (c'mon now, totally the reason you bought some for your hubs right?) or undies. Then I make him model what I got him too. haha.

    SA-WEET SCORE at the Nike Store!!!!

    I married an IT guy and almost all of my shopping is online - far less exciting!

    Hope you are having a wonderful Sunday!

    The fashion show in the living room is the most important part!

    I just bought a piece of luggage and it was half off and with the store discount I ended up with a $423 suitcase for under $200

    Great trip to the Nike store! You got some good deals!

    Earlier in the summer Allan and I scored over $1000 of clothes at the GAP outlet for around $300. I'll probably never beat that shopping trip!

    We had a Spring Break tradition of always going to the GAP & Banana Republic outlets and we would always come back and try on all our new clothes. I may or may not still do that...

    Have a great Sunday afternoon!

    I love that shirt!

    I usually get really good deals on baby clothes at Kohl's, but for me I haven't really bought much lately. I do check the clearance rack for workout clothes at Target on a weekly basis. :)

    Fashion show is a must ... your family needs to tell you how good you look in the bargains you just found!! I tell the hubster that everything I buy is on sale ... I don't think that is wrong is it?

    I love that shirt too:) I work in the department at Nike that makes t-shirts and I kept one of those samples in grey and pink because I liked it so much. We spotted Kristen Cavilari wearing it in Santa Monica shortly after it was released! $26 is a great deal for all that stuff!

    Great minds think alike! It looks like we were both spending our Nike Score Cards on the last day before they expired. I didn't score any deals as good as yours but I was able to pick up some tanks that I really needed for $25 less than what I usually pay. Love the shirt! I did not see that at the Nike Outlet that I shop at :(

    Wow, nice score for $26. I was at the Nike Outlet over the weekend and couldn't find anything cheaper than if I went to any of the sporting good stores here with a coupon.

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:
