Unless you have been living in a hole, you know that Brooks is an industry leader when it comes to running shoes and apparel.

But, just in case you're new to this whole running gear thing, here's the 411 on Brooks ...

What would I do? Run like the wind! Running has totally changed my life and I love what has happened because I found this sport. Family members have laced up their shoes and followed me on this journey. I have trained and raced with them. Running has bonded Husband and I on a fitness level and we're stronger (and healthier) because of it! My shoes are due for a replacement in July and winning a pair would be great.

I would love a pair of brooks shoes. I'm a fairly new runner (Feb 2011) and need neutral cushioned shoes. I'm not to the point where I can afford to have several different pairs of shoes so I have to keep trucking in the Nike Air pegs that I have. If I would win this giveaway it would give me a pair of "back-up" shoes.

I would run in them! I just bought a pair of Brooks earlier this spring after battling shin issues on and off for a year, my pair of stability Brooks have practically eliminated the problems! Love love loooove Brooks!

Anonymous said...

I would use the new pair of running shoes to replace my other almost brand new pair of running shoes that my 1 1/2 year old decided to only throw one of the shoes away. My last Half Marathon, I had to run in my old running shoes. I would love to get a PR at my next race!

Shellyrm ~ just a country runner said...

There is no hiding that I am Saucony loyal but I actually have a pair of Brooks and Mizunos in my laundry room (aka workout changing area). Yeah. I keep everything. It would drive you CRAZY!! Those shoes are most likely over 10 years old. Along with the half dozen other pairs that were put into their boxes and stacked under my landry room table to be forgotten about. (I think I can actually hear your skin crawl from my hoarder-ness)
I would use a new pair of Brooks to do something I don't do well or often enough...Try something new!

Oh those other shoes are all Sauconys!! ;-) Gee I need to learn to embrace change!
