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:

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 would buy a new sports bra, a new water bottle and some yoga pants. For some reason I’ll spend a TON on running clothes but nothing on yoga gear. I need some nice yogi pants. Thanks for the giveaway!

  2. Colleen on March 8, 2010 at 6:34 pm

    I would love to put this towards a heart rate monitor!

  3. Lia on March 8, 2010 at 6:34 pm

    I would buy cold-weather running gear – pants, tights, long-sleeved shirt. Since I moved from the tropics to a very COLD college, I need actual gear, rather than cheer shorts and T-shirts, to keep warm when it’s terrible outside. And I’m no gym rat, so I don’t think I could survive another winter as sedentary as this one has been!

    nike running shorts for sure! I do laundry way toooo much

  5. Kady on March 8, 2010 at 6:35 pm

    I really need new shoes! But I’ve been running a lot more lately so a foam roller would be amazing too. It would definitely be a tough decision!

  6. Erin on March 8, 2010 at 6:35 pm

    Definitely new running shoes. I’m doing a 10k next fall (my first long race!) and it’s training time for me!

  7. stacey on March 8, 2010 at 6:36 pm

    I would for sure check out the foam rollers. I found a couple of ab exercises online I would like to try out that use foam rollers. Also, a roller would have been great after yesterday’s half marathon.

    I too am a fan of Nike tempo shorts. I thought I had every color manufactured, but I don’t have any of your colors. How did that happen?!

    Also, my three kids (ages 10, 11, and 12) have started running with me and all but one has new running shoes. We have had to get one pair at a time, those suckers can be exxxxpensive!

    So, if I won the $50 gift card I would have some hard decisions ahead of me.

  8. Katie on March 8, 2010 at 6:36 pm

    My running shoes are on their last few miles, new shoes for sure!

  9. Nelly on March 8, 2010 at 6:36 pm

    AHHH I would buy insoles for my running shoes..or maybe new shoes…depends on the sales!

  10. Lisa on March 8, 2010 at 6:36 pm

    1. Some weight lifting gloves to avoid those pesky little blisters I get!
    2. A nice, fitted sweat-wicking shirt so my outdoor runs don’t leave me with pneumonia 🙂

    p.s. I also have the same Asics as you. They are a-m-azzzzzzing!

  11. Melissa on March 8, 2010 at 6:37 pm

    I would like some capri running pants and a top to go with them. I think it’s finally time to upgrade from my worn out leggings and collection of cartoon character t-shirts, much as I adore Gumby et al.

  12. Jackie on March 8, 2010 at 6:37 pm

    I am in desperate need of some new running shoes! So $50.00 would really come in handy : )

  13. Katie B. on March 8, 2010 at 6:37 pm

    Too many choices! I would love new running clothes but I could definitely use a foam roller 🙂

  14. Sarah on March 8, 2010 at 6:39 pm

    I would buy a new water bottle and hat for running and a resistance band! I just developed a stress fracture in my foot so it’s all abs and upper body weights for this girl!

  15. Dani on March 8, 2010 at 6:39 pm

    I would buy one of those metal water bottles so I can stop buying plastic! Also, a new sports bra would be awesome.

  16. Steph on March 8, 2010 at 6:40 pm

    Well, as a 33-week pregnant woman, I know I’ll be looking to shape up in just a few months! I would probably buy a new sports bra and other clothes to fit my new mommy body. =)

  17. Leighanne on March 8, 2010 at 6:41 pm

    I need a pair of weight lifting gloves so badly. I could also use some new sports bras. A few essentials I keep putting off!

  18. Samantha on March 8, 2010 at 6:42 pm

    Definitely some new shorts and a running hat!

  19. Lisa Bledy on March 8, 2010 at 6:42 pm

    I would love to use the gift card for a foam roller for after runs and of course some new summer running clothes!

  20. Victoria on March 8, 2010 at 6:43 pm

    Gloves and shoes!

  21. LindsayH on March 8, 2010 at 6:43 pm

    I just signed up for a new yoga class through my Parks and Rec – it will be my first foray into non-gym yoga, and I really need a new yoga mat since my gym provides them but Parks and Rec doesn’t! I’d love to get a nice one, so that’s what I’d use the certificate for.

  22. Carly on March 8, 2010 at 6:44 pm

    I would buy an amazing bra 🙂 Running is not kind to the ladies with larger bosoms.

  23. Erica on March 8, 2010 at 6:44 pm

    Oooooo! I really need to get some new running gear for my half marathon coming up so I would probably spend it on some sports bra tanks and good running shorts/skorts/capris.

  24. Angie on March 8, 2010 at 6:45 pm

    I would definitely, definitely get some new running shorts..because you can never have enough! And I’ve been meaning to get over to Dick’s to get the Nike+iPod sneaker clip..so i would for sure get that too!

  25. Michelle on March 8, 2010 at 6:45 pm

    new shoes or some tempo shorts, I never run in shorts because i havent found any comfortable but never tried the tempos so would love to try them!

  26. Dynamics on March 8, 2010 at 6:46 pm

    I want a step so bad. The $50.00 gift card will make it possible.

  27. Trish on March 8, 2010 at 6:47 pm

    I moved to PA a couple of years ago and one Monday morning my coworkers (at my new job) and I were talking about what we had done over the weekend. One of the women said that she went to a nearby mall to check out the new Dick’s Sporting Goods. Me, not knowing the area but really loving my sporting goods stores, exclaimed “OH! I LOVE Dick’s!” Let me just say, they STILL get a good laugh out of that!

    BUT! I would invest in either a heart rate monitor or a foam roller and some new workout clothes.

  28. Laura on March 8, 2010 at 6:48 pm

    i could use some new spring workout gear!

  29. brianna on March 8, 2010 at 6:48 pm

    Yoga mat and soccer gear for my 4 year old who is about to start spring soccer!

  30. Emily on March 8, 2010 at 6:50 pm

    Ooh, I’d probably pick up some new work out apparel!

  31. Sarah on March 8, 2010 at 6:50 pm

    If I were lucky enough to win the gift card I would love to buy Denise Austin’s Yoga Body Burn dvd and a cute mat.

  32. alain on March 8, 2010 at 6:50 pm

    WHOA!! this is an amazing giveaway! much thanks for holding this! i’d definitely go for some new running shorts and a new yoga mat!

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

    I really need some new running shoes. I trained for and ran the Disney World Marathon 2010 in mizuno wave riders and absolutely HATE them, I want my ascis back!

  34. Adrienne on March 8, 2010 at 6:51 pm

    I would 100% put this towards nice running sneakers. I’ve been running in my pathetic cheerleading sneakers and I wonder why my feet hurt all the time!

  35. Lindsey on March 8, 2010 at 6:51 pm

    I would love to get a new yoga mat!

  36. maris on March 8, 2010 at 6:52 pm

    I could reallly use a new pair of running tights, as the weather here in PA is still rather cold( 40). also, a foam roller sounds like a good item to have!

  37. monica on March 8, 2010 at 6:52 pm

    shoooos!!!!

  38. Katheryn on March 8, 2010 at 6:52 pm

    New running clothes. I never buy anything for myself, but I’m starting to look silly during races .

  39. Tracy on March 8, 2010 at 6:53 pm

    A new pair of exercise pants!!! I wear the same ones ALL the time

  40. Sara C. on March 8, 2010 at 6:53 pm

    Yoga blocks and straps! Also its spring training time…I am due for a new baseball cap!

  41. Madison on March 8, 2010 at 6:54 pm

    I would love to win $50 and go shopping at Dick’s sporting goods. I seriously need some new workout clothes. Seriously!

  42. Janet on March 8, 2010 at 6:54 pm

    I would use it towards another new pair of running shoes! And another size foam roller. I am loving the one I have but could totally use another size to keep mu muscles moving.

  43. Paula P. on March 8, 2010 at 6:55 pm

    I would love to have a new pair of Asics…..and a foam roller!

  44. Ashley K on March 8, 2010 at 6:56 pm

    Awesome! I would get some running capris and a new sports bra! 🙂 Think that’s probably as far as I could stretch the $50!

  45. Marshall on March 8, 2010 at 6:56 pm

    I would definitely use the $50 to go towards some new shoes! The ones I wear now are so cheap and uncomfortable. Whenever I’m dancing in Zumba, I feel like they could fall off at any moment!

  46. Danielle on March 8, 2010 at 6:56 pm

    I would love a foam roller for my legs after running and could definitely use new running shoes! Wonderful giveaway!

  47. Michelle on March 8, 2010 at 6:56 pm

    I would use the gift card to put towards a good pair of proper running shoes. It would be nice to have the proper workout gear I need!!!!

  48. Kelly on March 8, 2010 at 6:56 pm

    I would def. buy a new race swimsuit! I have had my current one since 11th grade – that would be 12 years!

  49. Gina on March 8, 2010 at 6:57 pm

    New running shoes or compression tights!

  50. Katie W on March 8, 2010 at 6:57 pm

    I desperately need new running shoes, especially now that winters over and I can get back outside for some long runs.
