Custom shoe giveaway

Hiiiii 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving Eve! Is anyone else running around cooking for tomorrow? I’m determined to go to Costco at some point today just to watch the insanity. I looooove holiday hustle and bustle (…and we need another $5.99 pumpkin pie, K-ups and box of chia seed pouches). 

Last night, I took an AMAZING spin class with some friends. I wanted to get in some cardio, and while I could easily watch Scandal on the spin bike here at home, my friend said she was going to a spin rave. It was a little later in the evening, so the Pilot would be home, so I decided to go for it.

It rocked my world.

Spin rave

(the instructor passed out glow sticks, necklaces and bracelets)

I’ve had a lot of fun to test out new classes in the Tucson fitness community after existing in my happy resort teaching bubble for so long. I forgot how infectious the energy can be, and the amazing camaraderie from club fitness classes. During spin, the entire group was clapping, screaming and cheering each other on. Even though it killed me in the best way possible -I may have forgotten how hard it is to spin for an hour- it went by quickly because I was having a blast. Another thing I forgot: how tough it is to get a spot for club spin classes. I got there a half hour early and was the last name on the sign up list.

Here’s the song the instructor started off with:

 

He played a lot of club mixes -which aren’t typically my fave but fit the theme perfectly- and I was surprised by how motivating they were. He followed an RPM style of teaching, emphasizing the beats of the music and altering our cadence with the breaks in each song. It was so much fun, and I was happy I went to check it out. There are a lot of fun fitness events coming up this weekend, so I’m excited to see which ones fit in my schedule (a two-hour Zumbathon on Saturday, a holiday yoga class, lots of awesome options to choose from).

Today, I figured that many of us are getting ready for holiday festivities, so I thought it would be a great day for a giveaway post.

Custom

Remember when Ashley designed her own pair of custom Nanos

Ashley s nanos

They came in the mail last week! Aren’t they beautiful??

Designing the shoes online is extremely easy; you just pick the colors you’d like for each component, while a live preview streams the changes as you make them. You can start with an entirely blank slate, or begin with some pre-set designs. Last time I posted about these, a few people asked me what I would have chosen for my shoe style and color combo.

Here ya go 🙂

    oo fingers crossed I win them : )

  2. Caroline on November 27, 2013 at 10:13 am

    I would want to try the Nano 2.0s in a Carolina blue color! Tar Heel fan 🙂

  3. Jess on November 27, 2013 at 10:13 am

    I would love this! I need to find some fun classes to try out around here.

  4. Michelle on November 27, 2013 at 10:14 am

    Oh man I love these “design your own stuff!” The purple and pink are SO CUTE.

  5. Lindsey on November 27, 2013 at 10:15 am

    I designed a pair of speeds for my birthday present from my husband- I’d love to get some of the lifting shoes too!

  6. Sarah on November 27, 2013 at 10:15 am

    I would love these in pink and teal! I’ve been looking for a new, fun workout shoe!

  7. Dyanna on November 27, 2013 at 10:15 am

    I Love anything Blue and Orange.. but I’ve been on a bit of a purple kick lately so it’d be a hard choice.

  8. Paula on November 27, 2013 at 10:16 am

    I miss spin class so much. I think it’s actually the reason I got into club music in the first place. Now my fiance has to listen to my “ooontz oontz” music on the regular. I was also at the gym this morning thinking about how much I need different shoes for weights and circuit training (hello, box jumps in running shoes); so your giveaway is perfect timing!

  9. Meggie @ My Grace-Full Life on November 27, 2013 at 10:16 am

    Love these shoes! I would choose a pink and aqua color combo 🙂

  10. Jessica on November 27, 2013 at 10:16 am

    What a fun idea! I like the purple!

  11. Becca Lynn on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I’m pretty picky when it comes to shoes — this would be so fun! Have a wonderful holiday!

  12. SandyN on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I’m not entirely sure yet what they will look like, but I know they’ll have some pink in them!! 🙂

  13. Moira on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I need new sneakers!!

  14. Kelly on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I love people watching during the holiday madness! and some new shoes would be awesome, too!

  15. Greta on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    A spin rave sounds like so much fun. It’s always little things like that help make workint out fun. A good thing to remember when struggling with motivation issues.

  16. Hayley on November 27, 2013 at 10:17 am

    I would get the nano 3.0’s with some pink and grey!

  17. Dawn C on November 27, 2013 at 10:18 am

    I love the ones your made! Such pretty colors! They rock!

  18. Melissa S. on November 27, 2013 at 10:18 am

    I may have a hard time choosing but I do love your pink and purple combo + I love Reeboks 🙂

  19. Alan Ali on November 27, 2013 at 10:18 am

    I want me some custom Nanos!!!!

  20. Allison on November 27, 2013 at 10:18 am

    I am in desperate need of new shoes! I’m leaning towards magenta/navy blue but would need to play around with it for a bit 🙂

  21. catherine c. on November 27, 2013 at 10:19 am

    i would do a combo of orange, purple, and white for the college i cheer for! (Clemson)

  22. Heidi on November 27, 2013 at 10:19 am

    I’d pick the nano speed with some sort of pink on them!

  23. Meredith on November 27, 2013 at 10:21 am

    Love these shoes…and love this song! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

  24. Lindsey on November 27, 2013 at 10:21 am

    I’m always jealous when I hear of amazing spin classes. Around here there aren’t any dedicated spin studios, so I’m always on the hunt for a good class!

  25. Tara on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    I used to black friday shop every year.The crazy is lots of fun!

  26. Kelly on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    This is a fantastic giveaway! I would love to get the nano 2.0, and being a true gator fan “in all kinds if weather” mine would be decked out in orange and blue! 🙂

  27. Molly S on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    I love the pink and purple combo… or maybe teal and pink?!

  28. Des on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    Awesome idea! Love the personalization options. I’d prob go with black/purple!

  29. Avery on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    Super exciting! I love the idea of picking custom shoe colors.

    That spin class also looks amazing. I like that it was like a party workout!

  30. Theodora on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    If you haven’t already been to SoulCycle, I’m bringing you the next time you are here. You will love it!

  31. Jamie on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    Nanos for sure since I’m a CrossFitter! And I’d probably go with pink and yellow 🙂

  32. FitBritt@MyOwnBalance on November 27, 2013 at 10:22 am

    I love the colors you picked for your shoe! I think I would do some pink, turquoise and yellow, you know, so I can be subtle and everything…

    I love spin classes. The energy is incredible. I want to try this rave spin class you are talking about. How cool! I like how some spin studios are doing the whole book your bike online when you sign up for class. I think it’s really efficient and you avoid having to get there super early because I hate fighting for a bike! Happy turkey day!

  33. Lauren on November 27, 2013 at 10:23 am

    I need those shoes! LOVE! I am thinking about trying a spin class to work off those holiday goodies.

  34. susan stankus on November 27, 2013 at 10:23 am

    I hope I win these! I would give them to my daughter for Christmas- would help me out!!

  35. Erin on November 27, 2013 at 10:23 am

    I’d love love love love a new pair of Reeboks! I would make them pink, white, and silver!!!

  36. Kim @ BusyBod on November 27, 2013 at 10:23 am

    I’ve been loving spin lately. A rave spin class sounds amazing!!! I wish we had it at my gym 🙂

    I would get the nanos in hot pink, yellow, and teal!

  37. Meghan on November 27, 2013 at 10:24 am

    I would definitely have to play around with the colors but purple is my favorite, so that will be on the shoe somewhere, as well as that bright colors – like that bright blue lace color in your “if i designed my own shoe” sample!

  38. Jillian Dister on November 27, 2013 at 10:24 am

    Love the custom nano 2.0’s I’m thinking orange, blue and hot pink? hope I win!!

  39. Meagan on November 27, 2013 at 10:24 am

    I would lovvve these shoes! Perfect for T-25 and Insanity workouts 🙂

  40. Alexandra on November 27, 2013 at 10:24 am

    I’d love the Nanos in pink and yellow! I actually took a 45 minute spin class yesterday for the first time in forever and forgot how much I loved it!! High energy is so infectious!

  41. Molly@This Life Is Sparkling on November 27, 2013 at 10:25 am

    I’m in desperate need of new cross-training shoes so these would be perfect!

  42. Caroline on November 27, 2013 at 10:25 am

    I would make them teal with hints of pink and purple!

  43. Rachel on November 27, 2013 at 10:25 am

    love these shoes!!

  47. Tara on November 27, 2013 at 10:26 am

    I think for a shoe I would want the nano in several shades of green! I’ve always wanted an all green shoe 😀

  48. Jess on November 27, 2013 at 10:26 am

    ooo I love them all!

  49. Jaime on November 27, 2013 at 10:26 am

    I would love to get them probably in a pink color!
