Hey Running Readers! Have we got a fabulous giveaway for you?! To help celebrate our 2012 Fall Fun Run event, we’re happy to have our Eat Blog Run sponsors here today with some really amazing prizes.
If you haven’t signed up your fall fun run yet, do it now (you’ll get an extra entry in the giveaway too!).
Let me tell you a little about what’s in store:
1. First up is a pair of brand new shiny running shoes from New Balance. The 860v3 shoe is what you can win and is scheduled to come out just in time for the NYC Marathon, which is still on course for this weekend. These shoes have blown rubber outsoles that are extremely flexible, light weight, and help provide cushioning. You will want to get out running all winter long.
2. Next we have SPIbelt, the makers of running belts. Remember my hot mama fanny pack post?! I LOVE my SPIbelt and I’m so happy to give one away to one of our readers: the original SPIbelt, helping you carry everything you own inside your belt… well almost everything
3. We also have a fun prize pack from Luna Bar. I first learned about Luna Bar from our first Eat Blog Run relay back in 2010. They helped fuel me for my runs, and they are delicious to boot! One winner will receive 50 bars of your choice plus a Luna Bar tote bag, tin full of bars, and a water bottle. You’ll be ready for your next run with this fabulous prize pack.
4. And last but not least is our fabulous friends of Team Sparkle. We love these ladies, especially the costumes they come up with as they run, adorned in one of their sparkle skirts too. These skirts can be seen for miles (well almost) and give off that running flare you need for a boost of energy. Today they are giving away one of their sparkling skirts, you pick the color. They want YOU to sparkle too!!
So comment to enter, sign up your fall run for a second entry, and then go hit the road running! Happy Fall!

I began walking/jogging about 6 weeks ago and the best thing so far is that I find myself moving quicker and with more intention. Instead of walking to the garage (100 years from the front door) I jog or run. I also have noticed that I run and play with my children and dog much more often than I did just a month ago. I am new to your blog but I look forward to reading in the future.
I love the time to think and the energy it gives me!
There’s something about working up a sweat that just feels good.
How strong and powerful it makes me feel! And i love how it is just me and my thoughts, it helps me decompress from the day!

I’ve never been a runner – even as a child I was much better at sprinting. But lately I’ve been giving a go during my walks. The part I like best? That I’m actually able to do it. I still can’t run very far, but I’m surprising myself at how fast I’ve been able to increase the distances.
I just ran a 10 mile race last weekend, my first race in 10 years and the farthest I’ve ever run! Would really like to have some more running gear.

Running helps keep my depression in check. It also gives me much needed “me” time in between being a Kindergarten teacher and being a wife and mother.
My favorite part of running is that it is 100% me time. No phone, no email, no work responsibilities: no other obligation except to enjoy the run.
I’m just about 4 weeks post partum and itching to get clearance to start serious exercise again…new shoes would be a great way to kick that off!!
