Runner's Gazette and a GIVEAWAY

 I want to introduce you to something special today. I know many of you are subscribers to publications like Runner's World, the Running Times, Marathon and Beyond, etc, etc.  But did you know that there is a Running Newspaper?  There is, it's called Runner's Gazette, and it is America's  FIRST Running Newspaper! (and guess what, the editor is a long time friend of Bart Yasso)

Like Runner's world, Runner's Gazette is printed right here on the East Coast. It is available for purchase mainly in the Mid-Atlantic Region but has subscribers from all over.

RG (Runner's Gazette) does gear reviews, personal race stories, nutritional suggestions, a calendar of upcoming events, ( and much more).  RG even has a poetry corner for those runner's who like to write.  The RG staff also travels to many East Coast races ( and other US races as available) and gets the inside scoop.   Will you or have you run races like NYC Marathon, Boston, or Marine Corp Marathon?  Your picture just may end up in print!


RG has agreed to give one lucky reader of Fairytales and Fitness their own subscription to the newspaper for FREE!    Tell us in the comments what your favorite running or fitness publication is.

Summer Run Item Giveaway!

Hi Guys!

Yesterday we posted about 5 things we like for summer running. Did you remember what those things were?  That's okay if you didn't. You probably remember that we said we were going to give away one of those items, right?

Well, here it is. This is the item we will be giving away.

 

One lucky reader will be winning a Bondi Band of their own.  I mentioned in the previous posts that Bondi Bands come in different styles. The most popular is probably the ones with the sayings on them, like the one I am wearing here that says "Will Run For Boston".   The black one in the picture above says " Find Your Happy Pace".

Did you know that Bondi bands are great for guys too?  I've actually seen guys wear these, have you?

The material of the band is a blend of nylon, lycra, and spandex. It is very form fitting, yet stretchy. (The material is really soft too)  I have a tiny head and have had problems in the past finding headbands that would stay put. I have found that Bondi Band bands are among the sweat bands that work for me without sliding all over the place.
Best of all, it keeps the sweat from rolling in my eyes.  Have you ever had sweat roll in your eyes? It burns!

Okay, for a chance to win one of your own fill out the Rafflecopter and then make a comment telling us what your favorite way to Sweat is!

Also, use discount code SWEATPINK to get 10% off any of their items on their webpage ( excludes Bargain Bin items, design your own and custom items). They have more than just hair bands too, so check them out!  This code is good through June 28, 2014.

* I was given the Purple Bondi Band from Bondi Band and Fit Approach for the purpose of this review and giveaway. The Black band was already my own. Of course all opinions are my own as well.



*The winner will be sent a Bondi band chosen at random by the Bondi Band company.  Giveaway ends on June 7, 2014.
