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.
