Friday Favorites (open for an amazing giveaway!!!)

-
Good morning and happy Friday!   In Maine here, we're on snow day #3.  That's rather crazy and unheard of.  While I love snow days, I LOVE early releases even more because we don't make those up.  So, while I was hoping for the early release today, I will enjoy another relaxing day with the kids...which means more coffee, some sledding, and PiYo.


psst...have I mentioned I'm a Pro ambassador?  I am!  


I am currently resting the legs a little bit, with hopes that the MidWinter Classic 10 miler race scheduled for Sunday won't be cancelled....but with the 2 feet of snow earlier this week and today's accumulation - combined with now where to put the snow - the chances are not good.  We're supposed to get the news by noon today if the race is on today.  I'm kind of leaning toward - if the race is off - then I'll bundle up and head out for a run or snowshoe run.    

However, if the race is called off, I'm not going to be super upset.  I do love this race but it's just a race.  I already have plans in the works to have our own 10 miler here in the area with some friends - so all is right with the world.  

In the meantime, I'll be enjoying my day off in this shirt.....

See that? No Excuses!  My mantra!!!!  

uberfit sent me one of their shirts to review.  Immediately I fell in love.  Not only is the message on the shirt perfect for me - the feel of the shirt is so soft and makes you want to wear it all of the time.  


As I perused the uberfit website, I really liked the colors and sayings on the shirts.  Then after I put on the shirt, I didn't want to take it off!  I really wish it wasn't winter and 10F degrees outside, because this shirt is what I would be running in out there!  

Instead - it will be my treadmill shirt.  



And my yoga shirt.  




I love the cut of the shirt.  It's loose fitting, but very flattering.  There are not any seams along the neckline giving it a very relaxed look and feet.  This tank also runs a lot longer than most of my other shirts - which is a huge plus!  

Love this shirt yet?  uberfit has provided me with a 
20% off code
 --- RUNNING20 --- 
which is good from now through 2/27/15 
(one day shy of my birthday!).  

And I have great news!!!!  uberfit has offered one of my lucky readers a tank of their own!  The giveaway will run from today through February 8th.  Enter through the rafflecopter below.

The (Wright) Right Socks for ME! + Giveaway

Socks are very important to a runner.   If they rub you the wrong way, it will make for a very uncomfortable run.  Bunching up, toes too cold, too hot, rubbing - all things that can go wrong with a sock.  I'm sure there are some other scenarios I've left out. Thanks to Tom and Kim at WrightSock , I had the chance to try some of their socks out.  Since I wear a size 9 and my size is borderline between a medium and a large, Tom thought it was best for me to try out   both the medium socks and the large socks. I was sent the Running II Double Layer Socks and the Merino TRL Double Layer Socks to try out.  I've never tried out double layer socks before.  Sometimes I have worn two pairs of socks in the winter, but there has been a lot of rubbing which has led to some unpleasant blisters.  Yuck. First up, Running II sock, retail price $12.00. I tried out the medium and large in the quarter sock.   I wore the mediums for my 12 miler with the girls on New Year's Da

I GLOW + giveaway

Running at night scares used to terrify me.  But, it all comes down to if I want to run I had to get over this fear.  Running in the darkness is my only option if I plan on running Monday through Friday since it’s dark before school and getting dark when I leave school and it’s going to be this way until mid February/March.  I supposed option B would be to rejoin the gym, but I really don’t want to spend the $$ and I don’t really enjoy the treadmill anymore.  So, outside it is! I’ve put a lot of thought into what I need to feel safe to run at night.  First and foremost, I needed some new gear to help me out, which lead me to RoadID for some help in this area. This company is fantastic.  It was founded by Michael and Edward Wimmer, a father/son owned company.  Read the story here .  Last fall, I had purchased my own ShoeID.  I like the simplicity of it and that ease of putting it on any pair of shoes (with laces) as I head out the door.  There is some great comfort knowing t

Tommie Rocks + Giveaway!

 A little over a month ago, Jordan from  Tommie Copper  sent me some Tommie Copper gear to sample.  I nearly peed my pants with excitement when the Tommie package came in the mail.  It was a gorgeous fall afternoon AND I had new gear to try out, so I pushed dinner back and made the executive decision to go for a run immediately.  Have you heard about Tommie Copper ?  This company is known for it’s compression gear that is infused with Copper.  So, why does Tommie use copper in it’s compression gear?  From what I gather, copper has been used medicinally for 1000’s of years.  Apparently copper stimulates the immune system to fight infections, repairs injured tissues and promotes healing.  Do you think if I outfitted myself in TC gear and wore it to school everyday, I would fight off those gross elementary kid germs?  I’m tempted to try that out.  Seriously.   Why do people even wear compression gear?  Do they just like wearing tight clothing? Actually, Tommie’s compression line i
