Friday Favorites: Running Warehouse

July 8, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

WOW. Didn’t I just do a Friday Favorites post? Not that I am complaining or anything, I like Fridays. Holidays that fall on Mondays are the bomb.com because the work week seems so short after that. Today I will be super busy working, grocery shopping, doing laundry, packing, and the like. Where am I going some of you inquiring minds have asked….to the BEACH! I haven’t been on a beach vacation in almost two years (I think….I just had a brain fart) and my parents are coming too so we are super excited.

Sept. 2009 flashback beach pic. Maybe I should recreate this pose for the next trip, no?

As most of you know, Bobby has his license to practice law (makes him sound important, eh?) and to keep up his license he has to take classes/credit hours every year and well…he has ZERO. Way to go, Bobby, Way. to. go. SSOOOO he is going to summer school for lawyers. No lie. it’s what they call it.

He will be able to get all his hours in 3 mornings, and then can hang on the beach with us the rest of the time. We are staying at the condos my family used to stay at every summer growing up, so I am super excited to go back. I haven’t been there in TEN YEARS. Wow I feel old. Speaking of old, my birthday is on WEDNESDAY. Am I rambling? I feel like I’m rambling…I had 2 glasses of sweet tea so that’s probably why. ANY—WAY, moving on to my Friday favorite of the week…..RUNNING WAREHOUSE!

I have talked about this store before, back when I bought my current running shoes (please oh please don’t look at the date, YIKES!) and I of course used them again to buy my new shoes. Why do you ask? Well, fist of all, they are cheap. You can usually find a good deal on shoes. I highly recommend getting fitted for shoes and buying them at your local running store, of course, but if you know what shoe you wear, you may be able to find it for a good deal on the website.

Secondly, they have FREE shipping and returns. No lie. If you get your stuff and don’t like it or if it doesn’t fit, you can return it with the enclosed label.

Thirdly, they have fun freebies. This time I got a free reusable bag and a car decal. heck yes!

usually when I buy shoes I get a couple boxes of GU’s as well. usually get them a little cheaper plus the free shipping. Also, there are usually 10-15% off discount codes floating around you can add to your already cheap order. Shoes and GU are pretty much all I buy here. I like to buy my apparel from an actual store to try it on, and support my local stores, I just go through shoes multiple times a year and they aren’t cheap, let’s face it.

I have always had great customer service, and I love how FAST my stuff gets to me! I can’t wait to try these shoes out today. Fingers crossed that this will solve my knee problem!

———————————————————————————

yesterday I cross trained and lifted weights at the gym to give my knee one more day “off”.” I wore shorts and a gold Running Skirt performance tank (no pic sorry) BUT, I did go on a sales call and this is what I wore:

skirted up in: Midnight RS, sparkle hearts strappy tank, and white run love long sleeve. I also have on white RS compression (swift) sox.

I spy with my little eye….a puppy laying on some dirty towels (told you I needed to do laundry…)

QOTD: What kind of running shoes do you wear? Do you like them?

PS: someone was asking me about foam rolling techniques…check out this post I did awhile back on foam rolling.

    Getting new shoes helped my shin pain! I think it will make a difference!

    My last two pairs have been Brooks Ravenna. I bought these because I was having knee pain back in January and they really made a difference. They got me through my first half marathon in May! Have a great time at the beach, our family just got back from Destin/Santa Rosa Beach last week.

    Have such an amazing time at the beach!

    You know I love Running Warehouse, too! They’re so great! My favorite shoes are Brooks Adrenalines. I started running in them 8 years ago and they changed my life 🙂

    I hope the shoes work out for you! I wear Asics Gel Nimbus 10, but I’m hoping to upgrade to the 12’s now that the 13’s are out and the 12’s are cheaper! I also wear Nike Vomeros, but anything longer than 10 miles in those gives me blisters, as opposed to the NImbus…I can wear those for a full without any hotspots! :thumbup:

    I totally heart runningwarehouse, too! They rock! I do buy clothes from them too, though, since the free shipping and free returns make it risk-free.

    BTW, I LOVE your skirt outfit…love the midnight skirt and the white long sleeve over the sparkle hearts tank…soooooo cute!!! I think I like that little peek of sparkle hearts better than a whole piece (shirt or skirt). It’s kind of like a belt. Love!

      thanks! I have never seen it worn like that before and i thought it was cute!

    I love, love, love the RunLove l/s shirts! I can’t wait to get one (when I get a job… LOL at this point my to-buy list is so long I better get a signing bonus!). I wear…uh… shoes I shouldn’t be wearing. Seriously! When I developed tendonitis in my knee the running specialist told me I was in the wrong shoes. I have special insoles in them so I can get by, but I need to get new shoes before I really start upping the mileage.

If you haven’t been to either, add them to your list! Dollywood has tons of great rides and shows (we are season pass holders so go often!) and Downtown Flavortown has amazing food, an arcade and duck pin bowling. They were kind enough to have us come visit and eat with them.
