New Year and New Goals #Giveaway Hop


I love giveaways. Even better, blog hop giveaways! It's a great way for a group of awesome bloggers to share the love!
Kristy from Runaway Bridal Planner, a fellow Girls Gone Sporty and Sweat Pink Ambassador, was kind enough to put this together, along with Divas Run for Bling!
What is a blog hop, you might ask? A group of bloggers get together, and link up, so that all the reader has to do is click on link after link, each one taking you to another blog in the group. In this case, each blog is hosting a giveaway! A wonderful way to visit some new blogs, make some new friends, and maybe even score some goodies!


I thought and thought about what I would like to give away! I have done some recently, and wanted to give away something new!
After running through Disney last weekend, and completing so many miles with only one blister, it suddenly hit me!
I need to give away some Feetures socks!


I LOVE these socks, they are all I wear, and with the exception of marathon day (and I am pretty sure it was from getting my feet wet when the awesome volunteers were refilling our water bottles!) I had no blisters! In the 2.5 years I have been running, that is the only blister I have ever gotten! (NOOOO Feetures does not pay me, or give me free stuff, I just really like their socks!)
SO, I will be giving away a pair of these awesome socks, in the color of your choice (click on the link for color choices, there are many!)
The winner will be chosen by random draw on January 30th.

What do you need to do to win?
Simply comment below and let me know what your favorite sock is! SO easy!
For an extra entry, you can tweet about my giveaway, once per day. Maximum number of entries is 10, so if you Tweet more than that, I will love you to death, but you will only get 9 bonus entries for tweeting.

 So tell me!
What are your favorite running socks?

    My favorite socks are the old Hanes I've been wearing forever. They're nothing special, but I always grab them first. Those Feetures socks are sweet!

    I'm not too picky about socks..but I do like the ones I have. They are duo dry C9 socks from target. They have padded toes and heels and they compress the middle of my foot. I wear them all the time. I'd love to try out some new ones though!

    My favorite socks are the wigwam ironman series. They last forever, wick amazingly well, and are very thin. When it gets below 20 degrees, I switch over to Balega's smart wool socks. for some extra warmth. I am excited to try Feetures!
