Last year a friend gave me an iPod and a Nike+iPod Sport Kit as a token of her gratitude for something I helped her out with. That gift changed my life.
I took my exercising to a much more focused place, tracking my runs, my time, and my distance. I felt inspired by the idea that I was not just trying to shed some pounds, but that I was honing my athletic skills and keeping track of them, even if it was only at 11- to 12-minutes per mile.
It gave me a renewed inspiration every time I laced up and headed out.
I payed this inspiration forward last year with an iPod giveaway and the winner of that prize took the goods and ran with them. Literally.
As we kick off 2011, I want to share this inspiration once again with one more of you.
I'm giving away one 8G iPod Nano, one Nike+ Sport Kit and one Original Shoe Pouch (to use with non-Nike shoes) to one blog reader.
TO ENTER: All you have to do is tell me one way you plan to Move More in 2011. I will close comments on Thursday night at 9 p.m. C.S.T. and draw a winner at random shortly thereafter.
I'm continuing to Move More and Eat Less in 2011. This is a continual process and challenge for me. It's not simple and it's not without conscious effort and focus. But I know that it's definitely one of the keys to living a healthier life, and it will remain at the top of my priority list for the coming year.
I want to encourage all of you to join me in 2011 towards a healthier life. You know I'm not perfect and I'll continue sharing the ups and downs and inbetweens of this story with you.
Until then, enter to win a cool little chunk of fitness motivation!
