Road ID Giveaway!

Do you want a Road ID? You should! Have you been putting off getting a Road ID? If so, here's your chance to win one!

From Road ID:

If you are a runner, cyclist, triathlete or just a person who doesn't sit on the couch all day, Road ID is for you. This awesome piece of gear not only looks good but it could save your life. In the event of an accident, if you can't speak for yourself, your Road ID will.

The Review:

I had been wanting a Road ID for some time, but always put it off. I knew it was a good idea to have one. You never know when something could happen. But still, I put it off. Then one day, one of my friends fell while running in the dark one morning. She did get hurt, but she was ok enough to make it home on her own. That woke both of us up. We need Road IDs ASAP! So we decided that morning that we were each ordering a Road ID and we'd make sure the other did it.

I got my Road ID a few days later. I now wear it for all of my outside runs and any race I do. I can't even tell it's on. It doesn't bother me at all. It even has reflective qualities. I highly recommend a Road ID. I hope you never need to use it, but if you do, you'll be happy you have it!

How cool, Rae! Like you I've been procrastinating my RoadID purchase but I keep meaning to do it!

I follow. ;)

elizabethlacy said...

Not that I've done it, but I think half is my favorite distance. It seems so accessible to anyone who dedicates themselves to it but it's still incredibly impressive once you take the running blinders off. 13+ miles? Crazy!

elizabethlacy said...

I definitely would get the wrist ID elite.

Lisa said...

I already have a roadid for my wrist, but I'd like to win another one so that I can put one on the pair of running shoes that I wear most often because I don't always remember to grab my roadid and I really shouldn't be out there without it!

Lisa said...

I forgot to mention on that last comment that I'm already a follower. And my favorite race distance is 13.1. :-)

misszippy said...

Hi Rae--I already have one, but will put a word in on my blog.

Foges said...

Foges said...

my favorite race distance is any race that I have a chance of placing (and winning something) like the mile! new word to enter is insag... not as cool as wookedie!

Foges said...

i really want the wrist ID Elite in Pink or Purple... just something different. new word for the day is "bongsted" I'm going to keep leaving comments till something beats wookedie! bongsted is pretty close

An Inquiring Mind said...

I follow! I love reading your race recaps. :)

Jes said...

I would have to assume my favorite race distance is a 5k, because that's all i've done. HAHA... Im currently figuring out when i need to start training for a 10k and a half marathon in the spring, so that might change

Jes said...

I like the ankle ID... i think if i were to buy one. I am also used to the feel of neoprene from my life vest, so I think i would really like the material.

Amy said...

I follow!

Amy said...

Favorite distance is easily a 5k. Because it's doable in the morning and doesn't have to take over you life to get ready for. Also because I'm sortof a pansy.

Amy said...

I think running with a necklace of some sort on makes it prettier. Which is why I like the Fixx ID. I'm not pretty when I run, and while it isn't feminine, it makes me feel more pretty and I'll take that.

Amy said...

You're on my blog. (Both of them.)

Molly said...

oooo, I've been wanting one of these for a while, I follow you! : )

Molly said...

My favorite distance is the half, just long enough without killing you. But I still want to do another full!

Molly said...

I would choose the shoe id, one less thing to put on my arm!

Molly said...

tweeted!

Heather said...

I am a follower...love reading your blog and seeing your success!

Heather said...

I wouldn't have said this 6 months ago, but now 13.1 is my favorite distance!

Heather said...

I like the Shoe ID. I already wear a shoe "pouch" on one shoe...may as well have something on the other! :)

Oh, I forgot to answer "why" 13.1 is my favorite...I really get warmed up between miles 3 and 4, hit my stride and then enjoy the next 8-9 miles. Then, I'm ready to be done and enjoy my runner's high and celebrate my (hopefully) great run! :)

Lori said...

I'm a follower already. I love reading about your speed!

Lori said...

I definitely have to go with the Shoe ID. Nothing else to remember on the way out the door.

The Wiscott's said...

I have an old shoe road id so unpdated one would be great.

The Wiscott's said...

After finishin my first marathon in 05 - I've stucked to 1/2 and 10k.

Lori said...

You're on my blog!

Lori said...

Right now I think my favorite distance is the 5K.

abbi said...

I follow!

abbi said...

Right now, I'd say my favorite distance is the half. I'm not fast so need something kinda long but the marathon is really long and took a ton of work.

abbi said...

I added a link on my blog.

abbi said...

I think I'd probably get the shoe ID...I'd more than likely forget it otherwise.

I love the 8K. It's short enough to hold my speed and long enough for me to get in a good groove!

Quinton J said...

The marathon is amy favorite. I'm better at the shorter distances...but I'm stuck on the challenge of the 26.2 miles.

Quinton J said...

I'm liking the Shoe ID.

Quinton J said...

21K is my favorite race distance. I honestly don't know why. But I like how I feel whenever I cross a 21K finish line. I just feel awesome after =)

Julie @ "Hotlegs Runner" said...

I'd like the wrist ID Elite =)

Raegun said...

My favourite distance is 10k. It's the only official race distance I've ever done and I can't wait until I'm able to do it again one day.

Raegun said...

I like the wrist version.

Stephanie Anne said...

my favorite race distance is half marathon or triathlons (my only distance is sprint so far).

I feel totally badass after both, and love the bling I get when finishing a half!

I love the half! I think 10k is the worst (oh, you didn't ask that...)

Erin said...

I've only done 5K's so far, but I'm going to do my first half next spring. So hopefully half's will be my next favorite race! :)

Erin said...

I like the shoe ID.

The Turtle said...

The Turtle said...

My current favorite distance is five miles, because it's what I can do.

The Turtle said...

I like the wrist ID Elite. It's similar to my Nike plus and I wouldn't have to worry about which shoes I was wearing.

track coach and adorable wife said...

You know I am a follower!

track coach and adorable wife said...

my favorite distance is a super sprint tri! All three sports, but none are long enough to exhaust you too much so you can't put your all into the next one!

track coach and adorable wife said...

I definitely want the elite id in pink. Coach really wants it for me too, especially since I am a night runner on dark streets!

track coach and adorable wife said...

i posted the giveaway on our blog, good luck to me!

Liz Finch said...

I followed you!

Liz Finch said...

I've only ever raced 5ks so I'm guessing that's my favorite distance....? :) Someday I'll do longer ones!

Liz Finch said...

I like the elite in hot pink. :)

Liz Finch said...

I REALLY like the wrist Id.

Alanna said...

I think my favourite distance now is the marathon. It's hard as hell, but now that I've done one I want to do another to kick my PRs ass!

Alanna said...

I want the firefly laces and my husband wants a sport wrist band (unfortunately the ankle band I bought him did a number on his calf muscle...).

runninglawyer said...

Favourite distance, after finishing my first half marathon this fall is definitely the 10k. It is far enough to be an accomplishment, but not so far as to drain your mind and body.

runninglawyer said...

Definitely love the Wrist ID Elite, but I can't decide on a colour!

Jogging with Fiction said...

new follower. I have a roadID already, but would love to get one for my mom

Jogging with Fiction said...

my favorite race distance is probably 5 miles, it gives you enough time to get into a grove. Then again, that's the farthest I've raced, so who knows if I'd like farther better.

Rad Runner said...

Last night as I geared up to run in the rain, I stuck my id in my running jacket pocket, and knew I needed a Road ID!

Kiesha said...

Hey Rae! You know I follow!

Kiesha said...

My favorite distance right now is the short ones (5k, 10k). The training fits in nicely with my "mommy" schedule and I've gotten pretty decent at them. They sure are painful though! At least with the 10k you have a little more time to warm up and get into a groove.

Kiesha said...

I'd get the Elite ID for sure!

Kiesha said...

Gotcha linked up on my blog.

Gena said...

thanks for hosting a give away. I just found your blog today and immediately hit follow. I did my first 5k last may and was gonna get back on it but now nursing an injury.

shelby said...

My favorite race distance is a half marathon because it's challenging and fun and makes me feel like I really did something! Plus I don't have to be super quick, just have stamina :)

Zaneta said...

Zaneta said...

I really like the half right now because its the longest I've raced and because i just loved it lol

I like the elite in blue :)

I'd like one that attaches to your shoe

My husband is a semi-pro cyclist. I always worry about him when he is out riding -- for HOURS at a time! I have been meaning to get him a Road ID for months now.

My favorite distance is the 10 Mile, but as I get fit, I hope it moves up.

I'd get a RoadID for my wife or kids, their choice.

Oh! Oh! I want the Firefly Supernova!! So cool.

Tales from the Back of the Pack said...

I wish the marathon was my favorite distance but I've never run one.

At a Half mary you're almost always guaranteed a medal. That's my favorite.

I'll run a 5k any day but am always bummed at the end when I don't get a medal.

I really like the Wrist sport ID in pink...of course! I love pink and almost everything I run in is pink! :)

twomamas said...

Hi there! Favorite distance is 5K, mainly because I'm hoping that my daughter will be able to join me in running one soon.

Jen and Danielle said...

Not sure that last comment worked out properly, but I like the Wrist ID Sport in Blue. That previous comment from twomamas was from me!

My best race so far has been a 5 miler, but with more experience I think my most favorite will become the half marathon!

Canadian runner said...

At the moment a half marathon is my favorite distance, as I just finished my 3rd this year, and it ended with a PR ;)

Canadian runner said...

I would like the ones that you can put on your shoe. That way I don't have to remember it every time I go out.

Dee said...

My favorite distance in 13.1. It hard enough to require dedication to training but not so hard that I have to sacrifice my whole weekend to trainign runs and recovery.

Dee said...

I like either the pink ankle ID or the shoe pocket ID. I already wear a garmin and sweatband on my wrist so I dont think theres room for the Road ID wrist band.

My favorite race distance is the half marathon. I really like the longer distances but, unlike a marathon, I can still push myself to get a fast time.

RunKnitRun said...

I like the pink Wrist ID sport!

I love the fact that I can do 26.2 but I think I like 13.1 since it's still a huge accomplishment but you aren't as crippled afterwards :)

I would love a Road ID Elite in green.

I like 26.2, the distance requires a level of commitment I respect, admire, and am addicted to.

Erin said...

Wrist ID elite, green. Normally I would say pink, but I am more of a hot pink girl then baby pink.
