A Puzzle For You With A Prize For Champions

I may not be a rocket scientist…but I know Mondays sometimes need a little pick me up.

IMGP0884-1

I may not be a fashionista…but I know quality workout clothes.

IMGP0904-1

I may not be a champion athlete…but I know how to feel like one with hard work in my goals.

I may not be Oprah…but I know how to give out prizes.

IMGP1501-1

I may not be too sneaky…but I know you’re getting excited by now.

Have you solved the puzzle yet? In case you haven’t, I will gladly spell it out for you.

Remember about a month ago when I had the chance to participate in Champion’s Shape Your Life blogger ambassador program? Through the program, I received three different outfits to suit my personal fitness goals. I then reviewed each outfit and shared my thoughts with all of you. In case you missed them:

Now, I get to pass along my favorites to one lucky winner! I have to admit that I had a hard time choosing which items were my favorites. I love them ALL and wear each regularly. When it came down to it, I knew which ones eeked out just above the rest.

First up, I have the Champion Double Dry V-Neck tee with the Shape Fitted Smoothing Knee Capri Pants.

IMGP1506-1

As well as the best sports bra I’ve owned – the Double Dry Spot Comfort High Support Bra.

All three pieces have all the qualities I look for in my workout gear:

  • high quality so they can endure lots of use
  • comfort to move easily
  • moisture-wicking material
  • flattering
  • versatile for a wide variety of workouts

I just know you will love these items as much as I do! I wish I could give a set away to every single one of you. Sadly, I can’t. So let’s get you started on the giveaway fun! Open-mouthed smile

Two ways to enter. Be sure to leave a SEPARATE comment for EACH entry.

Kidnapped!!!!

Hello FFF readers!  Your regularly scheduled writer has been kidnapped, and I'm not sure when she will return. For part of today, you won't be met with the fantastic posts you've come to know and love 🙂  Instead, you will have to endure one from me, her better half...  As you may have figured out, I'm the one who is holding her for ransom. Shhhh, she doesn't know it yet and I hope she doesn't get too mad at me.

If you've been reading since at least last month, you might know that her birthday was not too long ago and there were a couple of items on her birthday wish list.  I tried to satisfy them all but there was one item she wanted/wants so bad.  Of course, being the great husband I am, I have to spoil her Winking smile.

As I'm sure most of you have realized by now, Tina is a tinnie, winnie bit (pinching my fingers together), how should I say this, obsessed, with a show that is in town.

So a short two months ago, i got tickets for today’s show, and if your reading this now then we might just be there.  Well, that is if we aren't stuck in good old Atlanta traffic.

Surprising Tina is a monumental task.  You guys have no idea how incredibly hard it is to actually surprise her with something she really, really wants.  Sometimes I just wanted to give in and tell her.  I kept my mouth shut and shut tight. Hopefully she didn’t figure it out when she got home from her run and the kids were gone.  Of course they were missing..  “My work meeting got cancelled so I dropped them off at my mom’s.”  I can’t believe that worked!

So off we go!  I’m sure Tina will let everyone know how the little adventure went.  Oh and Tina, you better not be reading this on your iPhone or else I didn't do a good enough job keeping it away from you!

And now back to your regularly scheduled blogging…
