New Balance Giveaway

GIVEAWAY CLOSED

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Megan J {Comment #329}! Thanks to all of you that entered.

2012 is officially in full swing, which means if you’re like me, you’ve probably made the annual commitment to lose some weight and get in better shape. I’m always pretty fantastic for the first few months and then like clockwork – I stop working out. Ya see, when it comes to exercise – I just may be the best excuse maker ever.

I’ve never really been one of those people that loathe exercise, but I’ve also never been one of those people that love it either. Sure I feel like a million bucks after an hour of hot yoga or a boot camp class, but those endorphins only get this girl so far.

Due to a vacation in late spring, I’m hoping to extend my fitness regime past the usual 3 months because let me tell ya – this body is not beach ready. In an effort to stay motivated, I’ve enlisted the assistance of a personal trainer and invited my co-workers to work out with me a couple times a week for a scheduled Boot Camp. I’ll never say that working out is fun – but I will admit that it’s a bit more tolerable and a lot more interesting when you bring some friends along.

When New Balance offered to send me a pair of New Balance 10 Minimus Shoes and an iHome NB639 Fitness Evolved Headset I was pretty excited. I thought both would be great tools for achieving my fitness goals.

When the New Balance 10 Minimus Shoes arrived, I kicked off my Uggs and slid them on. I was immediately impressed with how incredibly lightweight the shoes are. The first time I worked out in them I was in love – they fit like a dream and as a bonus, they are really cute.

Extremely lightweight

Designed to be worn with or without socks

Synthetic/Mesh upper provides lightweight comfort and support

Deconstructed REVlite midsole provides great flexibility and a featherweight cushion

Music definitely makes working out a little more enjoyable. There’s nothing better than some fast paced, upbeat tunes to make the time pass a little quicker, but the innovative Fitness Evolved Headphones are much more than just a way to get music from your device to your ears.

iHome NB639 Fitness Evolved Headphones

Lightweight, comfortable headphones that deliver rich audio sounds

Chronograph Workout Timer

Pedometer Functions

Heart Rate Monitor that measures heart rate beats per minute and calories burned

Real-time voice-over feedback – announces heart rate, caloric burn, steps taken and distance stats without pausing your music or your workout

HeartPal Graphing Software
