Let's do a Giveaway! Race Results

Let's get to it!

I'm going to do a giveaway! I've got a $20 Subway gift card to give away this Friday @ 8:00pm to someone.

How do you get entered into the giveaway?!

Three ways to enter. Follow Fit With a Purpose and comment me telling me that you now do. Comment below saying that you want in on the giveaway! Also, tell other people to come and sign into the giveaway! If they say that they were sent my way by you - they get entered and you get another entry!

There's been a lot going in my world!

1. We've got a baby coming of course in November.

2. I am scheduled to run my first half-marathon in June on the 11th.

I was planning on running one with my friend from Germany while he is back in the states, but we were unable to get that worked out and will be running a 10k together in Illinois.

3. I'm going to be starting a new weight loss challenge this upcoming week! It is going to be $5 to enter this time and the winner will receive a 1 yr subscription to a fitness magazine and rest of entry fee. Details to be worked out still.

RACE RESULTS:

A couple weeks ago I ran in my first official 5k this year and placed 2nd in my age division. It was the hilliest course ever.

I don't have a picture right now of it, but maybe I can find one on the camera.

Again, giveaway entrees start today!!!! Enter and tell your friends!

Windy 2 Mile. Awesome Fitness GIVEAWAY Winner!!

Windy 2 Mile.

Today was a very windy day. I didn't run on Tuesday (which through me off schedule) and didn't get to run yesterday due to that unexpected trip. I got to run today and it was a rough and tough run. Thursday is the three mile run for the week, but it became the Thursday 2 mile today. I actually felt way over pace in the wind but was actually in the 8'50"s the first mile. Second mile was a little slower with about a 9'30" mile. It wasn't a bad run mentally, this one was just fighting the element of wind.

My 5k is just over a week away (Yes!) and I am still shooting for that sub30. I know that I can run it as I have before -- I just want to make sure I don't over process it while I'm running. If you are mentally drained while running - It doesn't take long for the physical draining to catch up. Overall, it was a good run -- windy with a side of windy -- , but good nonetheless!

Thanks for all of the compliments with the head shot comparison pics. I didn't expect the "good lookin" bits and pieces, but hey - I'll take 'em where I can get them!

I know this is why you all are reading this Post. It's because I am about to announce the winner of the Awesome Fitness Giveaway...but you'll have to wait.

If you are on Twitter - go check me out.

Feb 16 - 19 & the 100 Mile GiVEaWAY

The GiVEaWay is over and the Winner will be announced later tonight.

Today I hit the 100 Mile Marker!!!! It was great to hit that mark and I am celebrating by doing a giveaway for you! It is an accomplishment. I have already done more excercise than I did ALL of last year. I did 5.66 miles tonight and I am one tired kid. If you look on the right side of my blog you will see the remaining miles left on the 1010 goal along with the current month's goals and successes. It is a permanent thing so it will be easier to watch.

Another change that has taken place on 1010in2010 is that there is a tracker near the top of the page counting down until my first 5k. I'm kind of pumped about it.

I will continue to make changes to this posting until the giveaway is over. My workouts will be posted below the rest of the post by date each day.


For the giveaway: Here are the options for the prize that you can choose! They are not large items -- the last one might be bigger though! Prizes will most likely come from WalMart.


GIVEAWAY PRIZE OPTIONS: (ONE)

1. Small 1 GB mp3 player.

2. Athletic Dri-fit style of Shorts.

3. Marshmellow style of Headphones. They go into your ear for a comfy fit.

4. $15.00 gift card from Walmart.


Each gift is around 15 - 20 bucks. If you win then you get to choose one from the list. There are multiple ways to enter into the giveaway.

Here's how to enter:

Please leave your Name and Email Address in a Comment and list the entries that you've done.

1. Tweet this post with link. (I will need your Twitter name) - mine is MistrTyler

2. Mention this giveaway with link in blog posting ---- BE SURE TO COMMENT LETTING ME KNOW YOUR NAME AND A LINK TO YOUR BLOG POSTING

3. Become a follower of this blog.

4. Comment on this Post telling me which post has been your favorite so far this year.

5. Refer a friend to this giveaway and have them tell me -- you will get another entry.


Each thing that you do will equal one entry. You can have a total of five entries into the giveaway easily. You can tweet about this posting and giveaway daily until Friday for an extra entry each day. That is a total of eight entries into the give away. That's insane!

This is an awesome way for you to receive something for free and me do all of the hard work! :) I don't mind shipping internationally as long as it does not cost more than $10.

Thanks and I hope you win!
