Win a Pair of New Balance 880s!

As I may have mentioned once or twice, I’m ridiculously excited for Reach the Beach this weekend as well as some awesome quality time with the New Balance folks.

As you may have seen a few months ago, New Balance totally hooked us up with some awesome runner goodies.

Well, today I have an extra pair of their 880s to share with one of you. (One of you with large feet–they are a 10.5.)

About the 880s:

The trail running edition of the New Balance 880 adds trail-specific materials and outsole to a road-friendly ride to help you maintain your running regimen during the colder, wetter months of the year. Its quick-drying mesh and water-resistant synthetic upper helps keep your feet dry and comfortable, and the aggressive outsole is enhanced with sticky rubber for safety on tricky trails, plus Ndurance rubber compound is targeted at the highest wear areas of the sole for maximum durability. Designed for runners with a neutral gait, the 880 is built on the ACTEVA LITE midsole with ABZORB strobel board to provide a lightweight, supportive, and well-cushioned ride. When added to this already magnificent running shoe, the extra features on the trail edition add up to truly great footwear that helps you take your run to the next level.

…or, in more simple words: lightweight, cushioned neutral shoes. They run a little bit narrow, FYI.

How to enter: just leave a comment telling me why you’d like to win these shoes! I’ll pick a winner tomorrow, May 15. And just a reminder–I only have a size 10.5.

  • you can never have enough workout shoes.

    and i typically wear a 10. these will work ;)

  • What luck--I wear a 10.5 and really need a new pair of shoes but have been putting them off as I am planning my wedding! I have been wearing asics but would love to try something new!

  • I'm actually entering this for my friend Susie, who wears a 10.5 and is amazing! She is a trail walker extraordinaire and kick-ass nurse and a really good friend.

  • I love that these are made for the colder/wetter months. nothing is worse than when you are running and get your shoes soaked! Love the color of them too :)

  • I really need a new pair of running shoes and, as a college student, I really don't have the extra funds to buy them. I would really love to win these!! it would be great!

  • It's my lucky day!! These are my size :) -is that a good reason? :) Would love to try them! I used to run in New Balance a while back and would love to try again!

  • I need a new pair of running shoes! If they run narrow, the 10.5 should be perfect for my feet.
