  • These shoes would be helpful in my goal to walk everyday. I want to walk either outside or on the treadmill 60 miles a month and right now the shoes I have are awful to walk in. 
    Plus it would be helpful when I do find that perfect wedding dress.. 
  • I've had my old NB running shoes since I was a Sophmore in Highschool. I'm now 23 and they're getting a bit ratty. I'd love to get a new pair as DH and I are hoping to start the Couch-2-5k together, but I have a hard time spending money on myself especially since we're recovering from the wedding and I'm headed back to school in August.

    Heading back to finish school after taking almost 3 semesters off. . it'd be realllly  nifty to have a new pair of shoes to feel confident in and they'd get me to classes safely and up all of the stairs that surround my campus :o)

    Love it!

  • Going to the gym is always a challenge.  You've got to fight for a treadmill, wait for the machines, and wipe down all the weights covered in other people's sweat.  I would love to start running outside and avoid the gym, but to run on pavement you need great support.  You need shoes that will support your ankles and position your body so that you don't put additional pressure on your knees and hips.  My old sneakers are falling apart, so there's no way I could start running outside unless I got a great pair of new sneakers.

    My boyfriend is training for a triathalon, and I would love to be able to train with him.  I think it would not only help me lose some of the "domestic bliss" weight that I have gained while living together, but it would also bring us closer together by giving us a mutual goal.

  • I would love a new pair of running shoes.  I just got into running recently, but I can tell it is time for new shoes.  I love the way these look and I hear great things about NB shoes!

  • My fitness goal is to try a new workout! I've been attending the same studio classes for the past few months because I know I can do them. With the new gear, I'll be motivated to get back into jogging around my neighborhood.
  • I'm doing the 3-day for a cure in Philly in October, and I need some new shoes like crazy!  The pair I'm using now are NB, but they're on their last leg.  No pun intended.  Well, maybe.

  • These would help me in my workout of trying to run away when my husband tries to put the moves on me when I'm not in the mood. ;)

  • i keep killing my sneaker.  Mostly by wearing them to the garden.  I'd love to have a new pair that i can dedicate to just running.  
  • EXCELLENT!!  I soooo need some new sneakers to workout in; I've recently lost 30 lbs BUT I am still working toward my goal and some new sneakers would sure help!

    I've never tried NB shoes, but I'd be willing to give them a chance for my workout regimen.
  • I have a really old pair of tennis shoes that need to be replaced.  These would be great to use in the DW weight loss challenge.

  • I could totally use a new pair of running shoes!  My current pair have seen better days!
  • i'd love to win these these shoes!  I've been trying to lose some weight and a good pair of shoes would really come in handy.  Plus, the music friendly pocket on the shorts would definitely keep me from panicking that my ipod might fall out of the shorts I now use.
  • I totally need some new workout kicks!! These would be great!!
  • I'm trying to get fit not just for the wedding, but because I need to! This will give me one less step to getting out there and jogging myself into better health! Besides, I need to stick around for my hubby to be!
  • I have waaaaaaaaaaay too many miles on my running shoes and also hate to spend a lot of money on new ones!! Pick me!! :)
  • My current shoes give me blisters on the backs of my heels when I get in a good workout - its like punishment for a job well done - anyway,  I could certainly use a new pair!

  • I'd love to get in shape for the wedding.  A sprint triathlon or some short road races would be nice to do, but I can't afford new running shoes right now.  A new pair of shoes would definitely get me back out on the road and running.  And what better way to get in shape for a wedding than a triathlon!  :)
  • Giveaways are the best - thanks to NB and TK!

    As you know, we brides-to-be are trying to prepare financially for a very important event in our lives, so giveaways are very much appreciated, especially ones that are geared towards improving our overall health and well being!

    I've lost 20 lbs. since February, but I've recently plateaued, so I'd love a new pair of kicks to keep me motivated before the big day!

    The timing of this couldn't be more ironic, I just had to throw my current gym sneakers away last night because I found my feet slipping as I was doing exercises on my pilates ball yesterday.  Only to find that my backup pair don't fit me anymore!  I've lost almost 50 pounds in the lsat 9 months, never did I think I would lose some width in my feet!  New sneakers would definitely help to get these last pesky 10 pounds off.
  • I would love new shoes to workout in because my feet ache a lot from my current shoes. So much that it keeps me from even wanting to workout.
  • Well, I'd love a pair of those shoes!

    I was in an accident and broke everything in my left leg. A year and three surgeries later, I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm looking forward to getting out and exercising. However, I've discovered that my feet have really changed and my old shoes don't fit anymore. New shoes would really be a help in my goal of regaining my strength and fitness.

  • I've started training for a 5k that is two weeks after my wedding and having a new pair of shoes would make things A LOT easier! Not much extra money for shoes before the big day (except wedding shoes, of course!!)

  • I am a shoeaholic!!!  I have had the same workout shoes for 5 years.  I'd love to have  a new pair but can't afford it with all the wedding planning and feeding the darn children.  LOL.  5 little mouths to feed and bodies to cloth takes a chunk outta the paycheck too.
  • I'd love a new pair of running shoes and shorts as a way to keep me on my fitness journey.  I've already lost some weight and gotten in much better shape and these shoes would serve as a perfect treat to keep me on the healthy path!

  • I've never owned a pair of NB before, but I have a hard time finding running shoes that don't tear up my feet.  Maybe NB is the cure!!!
  • I'd love a new pair, since I want to tone up for the honeymoon, and strengthen my lungs in any case.
