Dick’s Sporting Goods

Hey guys! It’s GIVEAWAY TIME!

As you guys know, I’m a workout clothes and accessories fanatic. While we don’t have a lot of variety available in our tiny town, I’m always stoked to get away and escape to the Jacksonville Dick’s Sporting Goods for some fun workout stuff.

My beloved tempo shorts:

shorts

Asics:

asics

And weight lifting gloves can all be found at Dick’s Sporting Goods.

Let’s just say I was beyond stoked (and a little jealous) when a representative generously offered a lucky Fitnessista a $50 gift card to shop to their heart’s delight.

All you have to do??

Leave a comment and let me know what you would use the $50 Dick Sporting Goods gift card for. New yoga mat? Foam roller? Shoes? Running tights?

Winner will be chosen tomorrow (March 9, 2010) at noon EST.

Ready… set… go!

xoxo,

Gina

Oh my gosh! I have the worst blisters on my feet and I’m desperate to try out a minimalist running shoe…but can’t justify the cost. I’d love to win!

I love Dick’s Sporting Goods. I would definitely use the $50 on new running shorts. I have been using the same old standbys for a few years now.

Hmmm. So many great things to choose from! I am in desperate need of a pair of weight lifting gloves – i have the worse calluses. I also have had my eye on a Garmin;)

I would definitely use the gift certificate towards a new pair of sneakers. I’m sure there will be dozens of new sneaker answers but I’m proud of mine because of the reason. I completed my first mile run just yesterday and my New Balance’s just aren’t cutting it anymore…the soles are worn out, laces are fraying…I’m happy to say they’ve met the end of their journey. I know it might seem backwards (having completed the mile) but I’m very excited to start my C25K Challenge next week. The mile i ran just all about killed me and i want nothing more than to enjoy running. Very long story short, some new sneakers would help me along my fitness journey! Thanks! Have a good day! P.S. I adore your blog, it’s incredibly inspirational.

Yay for giveaways! I would love some new summer workout clothes. I think mine need to be replaced!

Rebecca March 8, 2010 at 5:49 pm

I really need some new dumbbells, I bought mine when I first began to lift weights and now they are far too light. And I am always in need of new workout clothing.

Sarah R March 8, 2010 at 5:49 pm

I would get my honey some new biking shorts. He’s been drooling over a couple of pairs for awhile now, but can’t bring himself to pay full price for them.

neha March 8, 2010 at 5:49 pm

Summer workout clothes (love those shorts!) and a new yoga mat

Reply

Erin March 8, 2010 at 5:50 pm

DEFINITELY some running capris. It’s finally getting warmer so I’d like to get some cute capri’s to wear to run…if there is any $$$$ left over, a new running shirt is also necessary :-)

Catherine March 8, 2010 at 5:51 pm

First of all, I have to say that I just happened upon your blog a few days ago, and I’m loving it so much!! :) I haven’t had the healthiest eating/exercise habits, but I’m really excited about making some positive, lasting changes and your blog has only added fuel to my fire!

Now.. hmm.. if I had a $50 gift card to Dick’s, I’d definitely use it to get some new running shoes!

Lauren @ Eat, Drink, and Be Hopeful March 8, 2010 at 5:52 pm

I would use the gift card on some new running gear. I haven’t been able to run in so long b/c of a fracture in my ankle, and no running gear just gets me so motivated to get back out there. I love your tempo shorts.

Thanks!

I am still recovering from an injury last month, and with my first half quickly approaching, I could definitely use that for some new shoes!

I would definitely buy some running pants/tights. I live in Wisconsin and need some colder weather running gear. I LOVE Dick’s! I think they have the widest selection of running shoes and usually the best prices. I often look around but end up going there for new running shoes.

Amanda March 8, 2010 at 5:56 pm

I would love this gift card! I would use it to get me some spankin’ new sneakers…I’m running in my first 5k in less than 2 weeks and I don’t think my current shoes will last much longer after the race! New shoes would be great since I plan to run many more races! :-)

Reply

brittney March 8, 2010 at 5:57 pm

I would use it to buy new sneaks. I have been working out more than ever, and haven’t had new running shoes in almost TWO YEARS. Help me, Dick’s! :)

Smartwool running socks!

Reply

Holly March 8, 2010 at 5:59 pm

It’s really tough to pick just one thing. I think I would spend all $50 on socks and Body Glide! My feet blister really easily, so good socks and Body Glide are my top priorities!

jamie March 8, 2010 at 5:59 pm

oooo…either a heart rate monitor or new shoes :)

Personally, I would buy the Wai Lana Urban Mat. It would be perfect for any workout any place, from my living room to the park or to the beach!

anne March 8, 2010 at 6:01 pm

I would use it towards a Garmin–dying for one as I train for my first marathon!
