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:

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

    I’ve had new running shoes on my “to do” list for months! This would be soooo awesome 🙂

  2. Liz on March 8, 2010 at 6:04 pm

    I’d spruce up my spring/summer workout wardrobe!

  3. Lauren on March 8, 2010 at 6:04 pm

    Ooh! I heart shopping at Dick’s… I would definitely get a new spring friendly running outfit!

  4. Ashley on March 8, 2010 at 6:04 pm

    I would buy a foam roller! I’m running my first half-marathon in June, and the training process is doing wonders on my calves!

  5. Betherann on March 8, 2010 at 6:04 pm

    A sports bra that doesn’t look quite so sports-bra-ish. And a yoga mat. 🙂

  6. Erin on March 8, 2010 at 6:06 pm

    I would get some fab new workout shorts (mine are a bit big now…whooo!) or perhaps some tighets, or put it towards a new pair of shoes!

  7. Kristin on March 8, 2010 at 6:06 pm

    Oh boy! I would most definitely use it for a foam roller and maybe a new bike helmet!

  8. bobbileigh on March 8, 2010 at 6:08 pm

    I would put it towards the purchase of a garmin. I am wanting to get into running outside this spring/summer and really want a garmin to help me along.

  9. O.S. on March 8, 2010 at 6:08 pm

  12. Donna Porter on March 8, 2010 at 6:09 pm

    I would totally buy either some new workout gear (I need shorts) or put it towards the purchase of something fun like a new hat, socks or garmin!

  13. carol on March 8, 2010 at 6:09 pm

    Been following your blog for just a week or so. Congrats on the race! Sound like it was a ton of fun! $50 gc at any fitness store is GOLDEN! No one can never have enough running gear;).

  14. Jessie on March 8, 2010 at 6:10 pm

    More Nike running shorts! I’m obsessed.

  15. Brittney on March 8, 2010 at 6:10 pm

    I love your tempo shorts, Im 24 and I recently lost 104lbs and I just started wearing short for the first time in along time, these shorts are on my wishlist!!

  16. Morgan on March 8, 2010 at 6:11 pm

    New tempo shorts and a few nice yoga tops would be awesome!

  17. Lindsay on March 8, 2010 at 6:11 pm

    I need some good headbands that will stay in place, a foam roller and a new light-colored warm jacket for my 5:30 a.m. boot camp class. 🙂

  18. Heather on March 8, 2010 at 6:12 pm

    I definatley need some new running shoes! Mine are on their last leg 🙁

  19. Teresa on March 8, 2010 at 6:13 pm

    I need some fitness bands for assisted pull ups. I am determined to accomplish pull ups this year!! And would prefer to look stupid at home with my pull up bar. Also could really use a hydration pack for outdoor runs this summer. Its hot in Texas.

  20. Lindsay on March 8, 2010 at 6:13 pm

    I really need some new running shorts!!

  21. Lindsey512 on March 8, 2010 at 6:13 pm

    I would definitely use it for some wicking running clothes. I’ve got a 10 mile race coming up and am in the market for some new gear for it!

  22. Shannon, Tropical Eats on March 8, 2010 at 6:14 pm

    I would buy new running shoes for sure! Mine are so old and they give me blisters 🙁

  23. Natalie on March 8, 2010 at 6:15 pm

    I want some cute work out clothes. So much more motivating than sloppy t-shirts.

  24. Sue on March 8, 2010 at 6:15 pm

    I’ve lost about 20 lbs in the last couple of months, so I would go buy a wonderful new workout outfit to keep the inspiration going!!!

  25. Chrissie on March 8, 2010 at 6:15 pm

    Definitely new running shoes.

  26. Katie on March 8, 2010 at 6:15 pm

    I would love a new yoga mat!

  27. susan (stepping off the coaster) on March 8, 2010 at 6:15 pm

    ohhhhhh i love that store (geeez i almost just said, “i love dicks”… NOT ok!! hahahahaha)

    i would buy a yoga mat… i’ve decided my icky anxiety calls for adding yoga to my life! i haven’t done it since college, and i’m looking forward to stretching my mind and body… relaxing… and walking taller.

    you’re the bestest!!!

  28. Mary on March 8, 2010 at 6:17 pm

    I would buy new shoes for sure!! Mine are worn out and I have a lot of spring races coming up!

  29. Liz on March 8, 2010 at 6:18 pm

    Ooh! I really need a new pair of running shoes. I’ll keep my fingers crossed 🙂

  30. Karyn on March 8, 2010 at 6:18 pm

    shooooooooooooes. i go through them like woah!

  31. Lindsay H on March 8, 2010 at 6:18 pm

    Oooooh. I think I would get a nice running hat and a camelbak for ladies. I’m starting half marathon training (and conteplating training for a full), and I feel these two pieces of equipment would make my long runs sooo much more pleasant.

  32. Elyse.g on March 8, 2010 at 6:20 pm

    I’d definitely get some weight training gloves. My hands get slippery and I don’t want to risk smashing a toesie! I’d also pick up a weighted medicine ball to do some ab workouts with 🙂

  33. Jane B. on March 8, 2010 at 6:21 pm

    TEMPO SHORTS!!

  34. Lori H on March 8, 2010 at 6:21 pm

    I am in need of some new cross trainers/dance shoes for zumba!! I would love to win!!

  35. Stephanie on March 8, 2010 at 6:23 pm

    Yoga pants and new running shoes. Oohh, maybe they have nice thick yoga headbands, one of those too!

  36. Audrey on March 8, 2010 at 6:24 pm

    Oh i would definitely buy some spandex capris and weight lifting gloves!

  37. brittany on March 8, 2010 at 6:26 pm

    I need some new running shorts for another HOT HOT Florida summer!!

  38. Sana on March 8, 2010 at 6:26 pm

    I would use it for a new pair of sneakers! My ascis are all worn out from running!

  39. Kristin on March 8, 2010 at 6:27 pm

    Cool! Been thinking of getting a piece of cardio equipment so I would put it toward that!

  40. Shannon on March 8, 2010 at 6:27 pm

    Ooh ooh! I would use it for some run new running shirts!

  41. Emily on March 8, 2010 at 6:28 pm

  42. Jen on March 8, 2010 at 6:28 pm

    I would use the gift card for some new Nike tempo shorts. They are my favs.

  43. Meaghen on March 8, 2010 at 6:28 pm

    I desperately need weight lifting gloves, so I would definitely get those. I love your girly pink ones! I’m starting to have man hands! 🙁

  44. Bethany @ Not Unless I'm Being Chased on March 8, 2010 at 6:29 pm

    The question shouldn’t be what would I use it for, it should be how long will it last. 🙂 I would make like Supermarket Sweep with a $50 Dick’s gift card…oooh, new running shorts, socks, new RUNNING SHOES (mine are showing their miles), a foam roller (hurts so good), a yoga mat…
    The list is endless!

  45. Nadine on March 8, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    I’d put the $50 towards a bike because I really want to do triathlons. I’ve got the swimming and running down, but I haven’t had a bike since I was 11, which is a bit of a problem haha.

  46. Jessie on March 8, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    I would buy some new workout clothes. I am wearing the same stuff from high school!

  47. christin on March 8, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    I would buy heavier dumbbells! I work out at home but I don’t have heavy enough weights now. They are so expensive!

  48. Jenny on March 8, 2010 at 6:32 pm

    I am in desperate need of new running shoes! Also, some new workout clothes would be nice. 🙂

  49. kristin on March 8, 2010 at 6:32 pm

    I am starting my training this week for the Brooklyn 1/2 marathon so i would use the Dicks gift certificate towards new running gear – i plan to get some new sneaks and long sleeve dri-fit shirts for running outside in chilly nyc springtime. I also need to pick up a new Swiss ball for my at home workout/ stretching.

  50. Katie on March 8, 2010 at 6:33 pm

    I need to replace all of my summer work out gear it is STANKY. This would certainly help ease the financial blow!
