Giveaway Goodness: SKECHERS
After getting the green light from my midwife at my 6 week postpartum visit, I was happy -- and found it surprisingly comfortable -- to get back in the running groove. And whether you're a new runner or are returning to the sport (in either case, I recommend the Couch to 5K plan), how cool is it that as part of my Giveaway Goodness series, the kind folks at SKECHERS want to gift one of you fabulous readers with their new technical running shoe -- the ProSpeed -- in honor of National Running Day? I have yet to try out the ProSpeed, but if they can accommodate my pesky bunions, I'm all over a shoe whose design simulates barefoot running and might encourage this moderate paced runner to be a tad speedier. Awesome, right? Check out the rules below to enter to win:
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
Congrats to winner Rossanna!
+ + + + +
Rules:
*One lucky winner (selected using Random.org) will receive a pair of SKECHERS ProSpeed running shoes ($100 value).

I'm 6 weeks post partum also and got the go ahead to get back to the gym!!! These sneakers are fabulous (and desperately needed)! I'm so excited to get back into my exercise routine, this would help out in a big way.

I have just taken up running upon turning 40. I can't say I love it, but a fabulous new pair of shoes might make it more fun! :)

I have been thinking about running. My husband runs and my kids like to run with him, so it would be a fun thing for us to do together. These cute shoes would help my feet look good doing it....can't say the same for the rest of me... LOL!

I'm a runner since 2 years and finished a Triathlon and some 5k. I always run early in the morning, since I can't run as soon as I eat something. My metabolism just don't like that. I was looking for new, colorful running shoes and the Sketchers are perfect!

I just started back on my running regimen @ 6 mo. post birth. My friend is getting married next year so we're calling our new training regimen: "Run to the Alter" (or alternatively "run from the alter".) It was so great this morning to get out & run. Maybe planning on doing a half marathon in October. It'll probably be easier than the one I did 7 months pregnant. :-)

I did my own version of couch25k when I started running again. I did jog a song, fast walk 2 songs, jog a song...etc. for 30 min the first week, then jog one, walk one the second week, then jog 2, walk one the 3rd week, etc. It worked great for me. Then after I could run a whole 5k, I started doing speedwork the same way.

I would love to give these a try for light exercise. For running, I need something to support my totally nonexistent arches, so I have a pair of Brooks Ariel shoes. Love them, but I wish they were cuter! :)
Posted by: Jen LF | June 1, 2011 1:15 PM | Reply to this comment
I just took out my sneakers after leaving them in the closet for YEARS and immediately fell on my butt. It's been so long since I've worn them that the rubber on the soles hardened, making them super-slippery. Time for a new pair of sneaks for me!
Posted by: Laura K | June 1, 2011 1:20 PM | Reply to this comment
Would love to win these for my sister, she is competing in her second 5k this weekend (she did her first about a month ago). I'm so proud of her, she works as a pediatric nurse and nursing professor, she raises two amazing kids- ages 18 months and 4 yrs, and she's a great aunt to my little boy!

A pair of kicks that fits you well is the most important aspect to running (even if they don't look cool).
Posted by: BV | June 1, 2011 2:22 PM | Reply to this comment
Would love a new pair of sneaks since I think you can see my toes in my old ones. Maybe I will go running (after my kids!)
Posted by: Stephanie | June 1, 2011 2:25 PM | Reply to this comment
I started the couch to 5K, then had to quit because of my knees. I took up swimming and some physical therapy. I feel as good as new and just started again. The important thing is to have the right shoes and if you have an injury be sure to let it heal properly.

Since leaving the military I have gained ver 60lbs in about 7 years (includong having a baby in their as well, LOL). Having a "free" pair of Sketcher's Sneekers would DEFINETLY motivate me to get back into shape. They will definetly assist me in running after my three year old son... to say the least! Happy running to all ;-D

What a great giveaway, I think my sneakers are about 12 years old, and they make noise (yeah, you know what I mean, I swear it's not me). I would love a pair of hip KEWL skechers to avoid further embarrassment.

My tip is to make sure you have the right shoes. The wrong, size/fit can really do some damage. Make sure to have fun when you run!
Posted by: Steph | June 2, 2011 12:51 PM | Reply to this comment
For me, running is made so much better with some MUSIC (and great sneakers and sports bras, of course)!!! There are all sorts of fun music gadgets, but I use the iPod nano and just the regular white earbuds that it comes with.

Since the snow melted, I have been running about 2-3 miles a day, 4-5 days a week. For me, it always helps to register for a 5K every month or so...

What a wonderful giveaway. I just recently started running, with my teen son. It's a great way for both of us to bond and for me to get into better shape.
Thanks so much.

I am not a runner, more of a power walker. I take my two dogs and walk up hill as much as I can.
My necessary equipment? My Camelback and bear spray. [It's like pepper spray on steroids.] Depending on where I am going, I may, also, take my camera...
BTW, I love these shoes...

This sounds comfortable. I usually stick to power walking nowadays, but some new shoes might inspire me to speed up a little.

My hubby and I do strenuous walking for almost an hour evey day and I wear Sketchers shoes for that. I do not have running shoes, though, so would love to have these and then maybe we can get into running in spurts. Love Sketchers.

I am more into run/walk/jog than straight running, but even when I am at my worst healthwise, I try to keep in shape with at least yoga.

I am about 100 lbs overweight and I am committing myself to losing every bit of it. Running will be part of my daily activities upon seeing my doctor at end of month to clear me.

I'd love to win these sneakers! My current ones are starting to fall apart. Yeah I know you're supposed to replace them yearly or so but I can't afford it. Stinks because I love to put my little girl in the jogging stroller & see how far we can go.

I'm just restarting an exercise program, for now walking 30 minutes per day. Since my thighs tend to rub together, I wear a pair of bike shorts under my nylon walk shorts to prevent that rub. Look forward to the day my thighs are no so close together!

I don't own a pair of running at all because by the time it's my turn to get them, I have 5 children to re-buy for. My fiance use to be a runner in school and I would like to see if I can keep up with him, thanks.

Any advice to building up lung capacity? My asthma makes running so difficult and even walking a long distance takes my breath away.

I used to run, and am considering taking it up again.

I have bad knees and can't run but I power walk on the treadmill on the highest incline. That's easier on my knees and I get a good workout.

Running is my best friend and worst enemy. I like what it does for me, but it hurts me. I'll be adding sprints to my running workouts 'cuz I heard good things about 'em.

Nice looking shoes. I run a few times every week and have to have my ipod. Makes it much more fun!
