Compression Gear- A Giveaway!

Are y'all ready for a giveaway?  2 lucky readers will each win a pair of Pro Compression Athletic Socks!  I now have 3 pairs (all bought with my own money) and straight up lurv them!

My modeling skillz on display!

And of course they make me "super fast," or at least feel that way;-)
 
I've been wearing compression socks for some time now during my long runs and for recovery.  I have yet to try the compression sleeves, but see how they would be helpful for recovery and still be able to wear flip flops!  They make my legs feel great & even after my 18 miler last Saturday (longest run to date...I'm training for my first marathon on October 21st, 2012), I had no soreness/stiffness.  I'm not a great stretcher, so I'm going to attribute it to wearing the compression socks while running & after I showered my stank off. 

I have black, pink, & now purple and lucky for all of you guys this month's sock special is purple, which personally goes with my Mizuno's!

Sock of the Month Special: $30, plus FREE shipping!
 
Limited Time Offer
Coupon code SOM812 is valid only for Marathon Purple compression socks. Hurry, offer expires August 31, 2012, inventory is limited and we are not accepting back-orders for this item.  http://www.procompression.com/marathon-purple/ Check 'em out!
 
But wait, there's more...just kidding I just want to give you the deets on contest entry.  Contest closes on August 31, 2012 at midnight.  Winners to be announced shortly thereafter.  To be eligible you must be a follower of my blog & tell me so in the comments section.  I'm not cool enough for twitter, but if you pin it on pinterest, you can get another entry.  Again, just let me know in the comments.
 
What's your favorite newest piece of running gear? 
 
~Gina
 
PS: I was not compensated in any way for this blog post; it was my own idea as I have paid for my own socks from this company & really like them, so I thought you might too:-)

I just found you via Skinnyrunner and think you are awesome....I trained for my first marathon after my daughter was born (May 3, 2010) and completed it 2 days before she turned 1 (May 1, 2011)...Isn't it a great feeling to have such a goal! And it looks like training is going well! Would love to win some new compression socks as I only have one pair and they are looking a little rough. Good luck with the rest of training. Ps. my favorite new workout gear are my Nike running capri's have never worn tights to run before, but I am loving it. http://www.roadrunnersports.com/rrs/products/NKL1407/?cc=DGYMAG

    1. Thank You!! Have you done many more marathon's? Did you ever find a solution for peeing your pants (since you also had & baby & trained shortly after) or is that just me? I was hoping to find a blog link for you, but didn't...do you write one?

      Delete

    2. I thought I was the only one :) I keep coming home from my runs and complaining to my husband that I pee a little when pushing it at the end of a run. Thanks for making me feel a little normal :) LOL I had a ten pound baby and my body just isnt quite the same :)

  16. i've neve had a pair of compression socks and I've been really getting into running lately. I've stopped smoking cigarettes because running is something I want to do! I love it. I will be running Austin 10/20 in April and have several other races in between now and then. I would really love to try a pair of compression socks to test them out and I'm sure I will start buying them too after I can see for myself what the fuss is all about.

    1. Good luck! Where is your race? Are you blogging about it? Would love to follow along...sometimes it's hard to search for new blogs with relevant content (like right now ALL I wanna read about is others also training for marathons...) Anyone else running a race coming up? Link away....

    1. Totally worth it! If I can walk normally the rest of the day after running 18 miles due to wearing them during & after a LR; totally worth the $ in my opinion...I was hesitant at first too though, but am glad I took the risk:-)

    ReplyDelete

  41. Just became a follower of your blog!

    My favorite new running gear item would be my neon orange reflective running shirt that says, "I'm slow, get over it!" It tells the truth and lets me be seen when running alongside the road.

  42. I just started following your blog and would love to win some compression socks! What an awesome giveaway!!

    ReplyDelete

  43. New follower- I adore my compression socks, but my favorite piece of running gear would be any and all of my running skirts. They're from a variety of companies, but they all bring the same care-free feeling. They're my "I don't care that I'm slow, I'm having fun no matter what" apparel pieces. I used to think skirts were strange, but once I wore one, I fell in love. PLus, they have much better pockets, which has become essential as I train for my first marathon on September 15. EEK! That sounds so close! Good luck with your training! I'm looking forward to reading more of your adventures!

    ReplyDelete

  44. Just started reading your blog via skinny runner! Would love try out compression socks for the FIRST time!!!=)

    ReplyDelete

  45. I just found your blog (heard about this contest), and I've added it to my Google Reader list! Hopefully that counts; it's how I read all my the blogs I follow.

    My favourite workout gear are my old lady compression socks! I bought them because they're inexpensive and I'm new to running. They're the kind from the pharmacy for people with circulation problems. Anyway, I can only imagine how lovely real runner compression socks must feel!

    ReplyDelete

  46. I'm now following your blog. I just got my first compression sleeves and they are great!

    ReplyDelete

  47. Found you through SkinnyRunner, and am following your blog. I am training for my first half in December in Vegas. I would love an entry to the contest, Thank you!

  48. New Follower! My favorite piece new gear is my lululemon 'run a marathon' tank that I got on SALE!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete

  49. Would love to win a pair, have never tried them but want to! I run a half marathon next weekend! My favorite new running purchase is my IT band band! Its helped me get through this horrible bat of IT band syndrome!

    ReplyDelete

  50. I headed over here because I read Skinny Runner - now a new follower of yours via Twitter! I just started running recently (longest run to date - 7 miles, woo!) and the only running gear I have so far are the basics, so my favorite running gear isn't much of a contest. It'd have to be my Mizuno Wave Runners, or my Sennheiser headphones that don't fall out of my sweaty, sweaty ears. I'd LOVE to try compression socks, but can't buy them myself right now as I'm getting married soon and that's soaking up all my funds. Too bad I can't fill up the wedding registry with running gear! ;-) P.S. Pinned you to my Running board on Pinterest, too!

  90. I also have found your blog via SR and I am so excited that I did! My little tot sounds like almost the same age as yours! (Born 10/15/11). I am so impressed that you are training for a marathon and running it at about the time your baby turns 1! I haven't been able to get my mileage up that high quite yet - this running post-baby business is tough. Btw I feel your pain big time with the need to do some kegels. It's making early morning running after a few cups of coffee particularly challenging.

    I'd love to try out these procompression socks, I've heard they are great!

    I am now an official follower of your blog and can't wait to hear how the marathon goes! Keep up the awesome training!

  112. Hi, I'm a new follower to Skinny Runner and now you too! I love finding new fitness blogs to read! I am hoping to start my own fitness blog some day. Got any tips? lol
    I am training for my first half marathon and my legs and ankles have been really sore. Right now I am using a foam roller and laying with my feet up against the wall as recovery tools. I heard that compression socks help a lot with recovery as well. Do you have any other recommendations? It would be awesome to win these socks so that I could train with these and hopefully have a lot less pain.
    Thank you for having this giveaway and I can't wait to read more of your posts!

I guess my Garmin goes without saying as my favorite piece of running gear, so I will name something else not so common: my Nathan Quickdraw Plus water bottle, which has a pocket that carries another essential item, my iPhone. How's that for a really awkward sentence?! Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

  138. Compression socks and sleeves are my biggest running staple - I virtually live in them these days. They've reduced my tendon injuries immensely. However, mine are CONSTANTLY smelly because I wear them SO OFTEN and I would really benefit from another pair. :)

  142. I now follow you :) I've always wanted to try compression socks as I love my Aspaeris Pivot Compression Shorts! But my favorite piece of running gear has to be my sneakers! I alternate between some cushy Brooks Glycerin 10's and less cushy Saucony Mirage's.

  146. Love this giveaway! I've struggled with shin splints for a few months now and many have suggested compression socks, but I have yet to buy them. My skeptical mind won't let me spend the money on them!

    I beg you to prove me wrong! :)
