Happy Friday Giveaway!

2 Dec 2011 by Radioactive Runner, 8 Comments »

A traumatic experience occurred this morning even before it was light outside. As I was rooting through my drawer where my running gear may or may not be neatly organized, I saw something out of the corner of my eye. As I slowly turned my head, I saw a SPIDER hanging in mid-air.  A big (ok, not that big) ugly green looking spider. As I began to panic, I bolted to the bathroom, grabbed a Kleenex to, well, you know… get rid of it. Thankfully G-Man nor the boys were home to make me feel bad and think twice about killing it. I SO dislike spiders.

As I stepped out the door for a run, it started to rain/wet snow and continued throughout my run. Although that didn’t stop me from getting a good 7km run in.  It took me the first km to get warmed up as it was a cool cold morning. Time to put my mizuno tights away and unpack the warmer ones.

Lately, I have mentioned how much I am loving high intensity workouts. One reason WHY I am loving them so much is because of my new revolutionary tool that I have been using.                                                                                                                                                                                            IMG_2759IMG_2763Have you ever had to stop in the middle of a workout to reset your watch or from worrying about the time and it being accurate? I know I most definitely have and I find it so frustrating because it interrupts my workouts. Well, my friends let me introduce to you, my Gymboss Interval Timer!!  Those of you who follow BodyRock.tv are probably already familiar with it but for those of you who aren’t… take a look:

~Gymboss Interval timer allows us to take our workouts to the next level and push harder without being interrupted which in the long run means better results
~ it is an interval timer AND stopwatch
~ the Gymboss timer is compact and VERY lightweight
~ it has one or two different time intervals from 2 seconds to 99 minutes
~ repeat up to 99 times
~ there are lots of pretty colors to choose from :)
~ full option of alarm duration and whether alarm sounds, beeps or vibrates
~ QUALITY product for only $19.95 with EXCELLENT customer service

I will post some pictures of one of my workouts using the Gymboss or share a video as soon as I figure out how to upload it… I never said I’m super tech savvy. I so love my Gymboss because there is nothing that holds me back during my workouts in regards to time. I set it up accordingly, press start and push as hard as I can until I hear that “beep”. I don’t have to stop to look at my watch or run to the stove to restart the timer for another round. Yes, I know.. ridiculous.

Gymboss is kindly GIVING AWAY ONE INTERVAL TIMER to one Radioactive Runner reader!! (try saying that 3 times!)

    Ohh that’s a great giveaway, my friend! I will enter with this: (lately) my favorite workout is any high intensity strength training, specifically with kettlebells. Been loving them recently! I would say running, but to be honest it takes a back seat during the winter and the runs are less frequent. ;) Thanks for this great giveaway! …and happy weekend. :D

    My fav workout right now are the circuit training sessions I am doing with my trainer. He kicks butt…specifically mine….

    My favorite workouts have to be Crossfit! I started doing crossfit in August and I love it, very similar to the interval workouts you do. This timer would be great for doing the workouts at home when I can’t get into the gym! I might have to put this on my “stocking stuffer” idea list for my hubby!
