24 Days of Running Giveaway!

13 Oct

In an effort to boost my training for the next 10k,  I have decided to set a goal of 24 days of running! If you don’t know the back story of why I’m running see these two blogs here. Starting today until November 5th,  I will do my best to run at least 4 miles everyday. I haven’t been doing so well in my training lately and I really need to kick things into high gear! This past month I have averaged running three miles 3 times a week.  My next 10k is on November 8th so I’ll have two days off to rest before it.

So where do you come in? Well, if you correctly guess the amount of days that I end up running then you will get a handmade item of your choice! I can sew aprons, baby stuff, purses and I even make pottery (although I’m not sure if you will want one of my crooked pieces!!) I can also draw pretty well too.  If more than one person guesses the correct number of days then I will use a random generator website for the winner out of those that guess correctly.

Here’s how to enter:

1) Leave a comment on this post with your prediction.
2) BONUS: If you have a blog of your own and you link back to my site- you will receive a bonus item of your choice if you win!! Just write a post on your blog about my giveaway and link back to this blog.

UPDATE: You can pick any number…even if someone else has already picked it! If more than one person picks the correct number then I will randomly select from those that guessed correctly!!

The last day to leave a comment is October 16th at midnight. I will write an update post on Friday morning with how many days I’ve run this week.

Good luck everyone!

I’m going through all the Rome pics tonight and plan to post Day 1 on Wednesday morning! Yippee!!

    Ok. So I have a lot of faith in you! I say 20 days. You can do it! Run, run, run!!!!

    Hmm, someone already took my guess. If this was the Price is Right and you were Bob Barker, I’d guess 1. But since it’s not and you’re Stacee Adams, I guess I’m going to have to go with 19.5. (Or 19, if half numbers don’t count.) I’m going to linky link soon for some bonus points.

    OK, my guess was 19, too, but since everybody seems to think that’s the magic number, I’m going to predict that you are a very competitive person and are going to try and beat that magic guess…my guess is you’ll go for the gold and pound the pavement for 22 days of running. :) Hope I win!

    20 days! Good luck!

    Hey Stacee! Remember me from Berry? I saw your facebook status and linked right over, I’m a sucker for free giveaways. :-)

    I’m going to guess 18 days, taking into account your previous average of 3x/week. I hope you exceed that, though, and reach your 24 days goal!

    I love aprons, and have been coveting a homemade one for some time…what a neat idea! I’ll leave a post on my blog linking back here, too.

    16 days. (Which I think is still highly ambitious and TOTALLY admirable!) I am excited for you to get that iphone!!!!

  9. Jackie Seibert October 14, 2008 at 4:09 pm #

    21 days is my prediction! I know you could do 24 days consecutive if you put your mind to it (plus, I’ve seen your hard work once a week when we run at Body Pros)….but I’m not going to say that because you know my advice (to take 1 day off a week)….another side note, I really think you should get credit for running 2 – 3 miles not only 4 miles/day. Have fun!! I’m so exciting that you are getting into running….well, at least until you get the iphone!! :)

    My vote was 18, but since that number has been taken, I say 17. :)

  11. rebecca beal October 14, 2008 at 5:56 pm #

    I was for 18 too, just to give you some time for crafts, etc. all the numbers are gone, I’ll just say 16 since you are working on the musical and a hundred other things! I hope you’ll do more if you need to! (Would a dream about running count?)

  12. Allison October 14, 2008 at 7:07 pm #

    Hi, I found this post through Sarah’s blog. :) I’m a sucker for giveaways, too.

    I was going to say 20, just because that leaves one day a week for “rest” and that’s pretty ambitious all the same! Good luck with your running and congrats on going for the 10K!

  13. Kristie October 14, 2008 at 8:35 pm #

    I’ve added a link on my blog.
    I’m going to say 20 b/c that is my fav number.
    Best of luck to you!

  17. Laura October 15, 2008 at 12:29 pm #

    Hmmm…..I have faith in you Stacee, so I am going to say 20. Good Luck!

  18. Lindsay Speicher October 15, 2008 at 5:10 pm #

    I think you will do great! I am guessing 22 days…good luck. We will have to run together so I can keep you accountable to these days!!

  19. Melissa October 16, 2008 at 10:21 am #
