Let’s get to this big honkin’ contest, shall we?
(These are all items that have been given by companies that I know of, like and/or personally use their products)
Size small, hot pink, will fit 4 gels. Retails for $11.95
I have an
iFitness belt that I wore in my last marathon that I’d recommend to anyone who carries a lot of stuff with them or hates anything in their hands. It stays in place, doesn’t bounce around, gets tight enough but doesn’t strangle-hold you.
Maple Almond Butter and 2 Honey Peanut Butter. Retails for about $5
I admit, I didn’t really get the big deal about
Justin’s until they sent me some.
It takes nut butters to a higher level. It’s like thinking Courtney Love is the ultimate crazy, but that’s only because you haven’t met Charlie Sheen.
Both the maple almond butter and the honey peanut butter have the perfect hint of flavor, subtle in just the right way. These aren’t sweet, they aren’t salty, they’re just nut butter perfection.
3. Mission Skincare
Refreshing Foot Therapy Cream and
All-Sport 50 SPF Sunscreen.
Retails for $19.
Mission Skincare is what I personally use; I haven’t found a product of theirs that I don’t like. I feel like they all do their job well: the sunscreen stays on my face, the muscle rub relaxes and soothes my muscles, and the anti-friction cream doesn’t chafe.
Those professional athletes who created the line must know what they’re doing….
4. Drymax Running Lite-Mesh Sock
Retails for $9.00. There’s either a Women size 5-7 or a Women 7.5-9.5 to choose from.
This is the only sock I run in: the lite-mesh. It doesn’t bunch or move, it keeps my feet dry, they don’t stretch out, and I like the tight arch band.
5. CLICK Espresso Protein Drink ALL-Natural Single Serving Packet
5 Packets: 3 Mocha and 2 Vanilla Latte. Retails for $16.25
CLICK is my favorite recovery drink: it’s got protein, fats, and carbs but tastes like a coffee Frappuccino, not a protein shake. It’s easy to make, good for you, and tastes good. end of story.
6. XelvaGen All-Natural Pain Drops
2 bottles.
Retails for $60
On the days that I don’t want to smell like a rest home with eau de Ben-Gay, I rub
XelvaGen on any achy body party, particularly my knees. What I like about these pain drops is that EVERYTHING is all natural: 100% natural botanicals so no chemicals or anything habit forming.
7. BIC Bands headbands
3 BIC Bands. Retails for $27.
It stays in place, is easy to rinse off and a part of the sale goes to charity.
love that.
8. GU Performance Energy Sampler
17 different products. On sale for $24.
You know I love my GU gels, that’s what I take in races, but the beauty of the sampler pack is you get to try a little of everything to see
what works best for you.
9. CW-X Ventilator Compression Socks
Retails for $30.
I’m really jealous of the winner because this is one product that I have not tried, although I really, really want to! I love my compression socks and sleeves, and
CW-X is one of the leaders in the field. Whoever wins, can I borrow these??
I actually went to a presentation about it recently and since then have been adding the granules in my breakfast oatmeal. I feel like if it’s natural and full of vitamins and all that good stuff, why not try it out?
11. Heart Thrive Vegan Energy Bars
A gift card for 1 dozen, valued at $21.
These are all natural, super healthy, yet tasty energy bars with a ton of flavors to pick from. My favorite would be cranberry or apple. You smear a little peanut butter on top and it’s deeeeelicious.
Rubber bead bracelet with Run Endurance Bead. Retails for $60.
Another product that I really want to keep for myself! How cute is this bracelet?! All of the products are 100% guaranteed and the RUN bead is handmade from recycled sterling silver in the USA.
13. Chocomize Customized Chocolate Bars
3 Chocolate bars and a $25 gift certificate! About a $43 value.
Did you know that Chocomize was the first product that I ever reviewed on the blog? I bought two and then gave 2 to my family; I still remember showing them this crazy candy bar creation and them thinking it was pretty cool. I think Chocomize is such a fun, unique idea; who doesn’t like chocolate and who doesn’t like creating their own special recipe?! And the ingredients they use, from the chocolate to the toppings, are all high quality and great tasting. 14. Ryders Eyewear Vela Sunglasses
Retails for $40.
These cute, girly running glasses know what they’re doing: they have polycarbonate lenses with 100% UVA, UVB, UVC protection, a durable, flexible frame, and the nose pads and temple tips are also anti-slip and hypoallergenic. You can even adjust the nose pads.
I have a
pair of Ryder sunglasses that if it ever stops raining in this place, I could start wearing again. But until then, I’ll look like a total dirtbag and wear them inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That is over $400 worth of sweet swag!! You know how to enter; get to it.
