New Balance 860 Giveaway!

I’m back (if by, back, you mean I’ve scheduled this post) with another giveaway!

nb_860_giveaway.jpg.jpg

Unfortunately, this one is only for those ladies with big feet like me. I have an extra pair of these bad boys from work and they’re a size 10.5.

Yup, 5’5″ and a 10.5.

Moving on…

The 860s are traditional stability shoes and were named Editor’s Choice by Runner’s World last year. They have all sorts of bells and whistles to keep you supported while running, including a removable Abzorb cushioning insert and N-energy cushioning in the heel.

I wore these shoes for Reach the Beach through most of my marathon training. I’d never worn them before RTB and transitioned right into them with no issues, including no blisters. They’re great shoes for high-volume, long-distance training…

Have big feet and run long distances?

Awesome, then enter below.

Leave a comment telling me why you’d like to win these shoes; for a bonus entry, pin either of the above images on Pinterest and leave an extra comment telling me you’ve done so.

This giveaway only open to those in the United States. I will close this giveaway on 1/2/2012 at 12:00pm ET.

  1. Susan says:

    My current sneaks need to be retired/replaced asap, and I these are actually my size! Hope you are having a great time on your trip!

  2. Mikaela says:

    I would love these shoes because I’m currently recovering from foot surgery that hasn’t let me run since May (!!!), which has been brutal. On my to-do list is to replace my running shoes so I can get back out there, and I’m a size 10.5!!

  3. Kristin says:

    These are my size and my favorite running shoe ever!

  4. Amy says:

    I am not a runner… yet… but am recuperating from a busted knee and could really use these for all of the physical therapy!

  5. Holly says:

    Weird, I’m still waiting to grow into my feet too… Perfect timing, I’m in need of new running kicks!

  6. Lauren says:

    New sneakers are great motivation for my new year’s resolution of running more

  7. Valerie says:

    I’m a fellow 10.5er (no shame) and would love these to wear as I train for my first marathon this year!

  8. Rachel says:

    I actually wear a 10.5 and would love to win these shoes!

  9. Carol says:

    You just made this big foot VERY happy!

  10. Mami2jcn says:

    We wear the same size! I’m 5’9″, though. I have suffered from bunions and bunionettes (adorable, right?) and I’d love new sneakers!

    Wow! There’s never a giveaway in my shoe size! How exciting! I’d love to win these shoes because my current shoes are worn and well over a year old. Time for some new ones!

    ^^On Pinterest! Thank you for the opportunity!

  14. Trisha b says:

    I really could use a new pair of sneakers and these look great! My size too!

  15. Maureen says:

    I’m also 5’5″ and 10.5! I would love to win these shoes because I always have a hard time finding shoes for my giant Amazon woman feet, but New Balance has always been good to me.

  16. Sarah Hyers says:

    Finding shoes in a half size, specifically 10.5 is the worst! I’d love to win these since I’m in the market for a new pair and still broke from Christmas :(

  17. Julie says:

    Where do I begin?! Let’s start with I’m wearing a 10 but could use a little more wiggle room. I run everyday and it’s really expensive to replace shoes as often as I should. I have bad feet and need a really good stability shoe. New Balance is great. I love to run and giveaways are fun!

  18. Megan says:

    I’ve got big feet and love to run! Would love these shoes!!

  19. Jenn says:

    I thought I was bad at 5’5 and a size 9! :)

  20. lauren says:

    I’d like to try NB shoes again. Its been awhile.

  21. Caitlin C. says:

    I’m 5’5 and a 10.5 shoe! Would love to try these out! Thanks for giving them away :)

  22. I’d love to win these because I also wear a 10.5…so random! I’m a little taller (5’7”) but still…such big feet!

    I also have huge feet and need a new pair of running shoes! :)

  27. Sade says:

    I need to buy some new sneaks cuz i run 4-6 times/wk and have had mine for > 1 yr. They have literally given me the most gnarly pinky toe blisters. What can I say, living large as a student :) also – this is my size

  28. Brittany says:

    I’m really getting into running and can use some new shoes!

  29. Amy says:

    My feet grew during pregnancy- and haven’t gone back . Safe to say I will be this size-my youngest is 4 and 1/2!

    I also have giant feet, and my current pair are very worn!

  31. Macy Hunsicker says:

    These shoes would help me to reach my goal of getting fit in the new year!

  37. Alyssa says:

    I’m training for my first half marathon and could use a pair of reliable shoes for longer distances! I’m also only 5’3 with big feet =)

  38. Leah says:

    I have big feet and I aspire to run long distances!

  39. I want these shoes for my mom. She is an avid runner, and being sick has caused her to slow down a bit. But, she is still a rock star!

  40. I pinned the shoes picture on pinterest!

  41. E-Kate says:

    I would love to win these! I need new running shoes and this would be the perfect thing to jumpstart me into training for my 3rd 1/2 marathon!

  42. I’d love to win these New Balance shoes because I’ve always been a fan of New Balance. I’ve been running for a few years now, but of all the lessons I’ve learned, having the right shoes is one of the best and most important.

  43. Sarah says:

    I wear size 13 :(

  44. Kelly D says:

    I would like these shoes so I can get into shape in the New Year.

  45. sinnela says:

    I’ve been wanting to try out New Balance for a while – a good American company! I’ve always run for exercise, but just this year I’ve been trying to push myself in terms of longer distances and faster speeds… new sneakers might just help me out! (Also, I’ve recently come to terms with the fact that I have size 10-10.5 feet.)

  46. marcie says:

    I feel like Cinderella, these would fit me perfectly!

  47. Sarah L. says:

    Oh my gracious, I have had the hardest time finding running shoes at my size (10!) I love NB and I totally need these to start training.

  48. Mary Frances Daly says:

    My sister calls my 10.5 feet skis! I would love these for some motivation for training for my March half in SC and the Nike Women’s Half in DC in April. I need something to get me going because the snow coming down right now isn’t working!

  49. Deanna G. says:

    I’d like to win because I’m in serious need of some new athletic shoes!

  50. Cate says:

    Boo! I’m a size 12 in a running shoe. :(
    Hope you’re having fun on vacation!

    Yay!! A giveaway specific to my big feet! I’d love to win, because I’m thinking of training for a half and would need new shoes!

  52. Suzanne Welch says:

    I feel your pain. I have had these 10.5 puppies since I was 12. I would love to wear these shoes as I actually got off the couch and wore them on a run instead of just making big plans about running. 2013 is the year of action!

  53. Hannah says:

    ohhh boy! I’m 5’10″ and a size 10.5-11. I would love love love these!!

  54. Hannah says:

    Also pinned these!

  55. Gianna says:

    I love others with big feet no shame. I’m close to 5’9 but my bad boys were full size by third grade. Awkward much?!

    I would love these. I burn through sneakers running upwards of 40 miles most weeks and marathon training and these have received great reviews!

    Enjoy sun and fun and vacation!!

  56. Anne says:

    I need new shoes and winning a free pair would be super awesome.

    Enjoy St. Croix!

  58. dorry says:

    I’m not a size 10.5 but my sister is, and she’s about to start training for her 2nd half marathon post-3 babies. I know she would be so excited to start training with a brand new pair of shoes! :)

  59. Rachael says:

    I desperately need to replace my current running shoes as I get back out on the pavement to train for a 5k!

  60. Katie K says:

    I would love to win this giveaway! I am new to tumblr and just posted my first post. After I posted, I came across your blog and became inspired. For the New Year, I have decided to make some life changes to have a healthier life style. I have size 10.5 foot and seeing these shoes my feet smiled :) These shows look so comfortable. I have never had nice running shoes and these would be great for preparing for a 5k/marathon in my future. I also pinned the above image to my pinterest account.. check it out here http://pinterest.com/pin/58124651412626695/

  64. Sonia says:

    I would love a pair of new shoes to start the new year! I’ve slacked this year (2012) as far as 5k’s go (not as many as I did in 2011), and am ready to set better goals this coming year. Hoping to make it a goal to run the Disney Princess half in 2013. In order to achieve that I have to start running again, and new shoes would be awesome!

  65. Sara says:

    Ha! I’m only 5’3.5″ and also a 10.5 so I feel your pain!

  66. Annie says:

    These are exactly my size, and I’m just about to get rolling with training for 2 halfs in the spring! I’d love to have a great new pair of sneaks to help me get there – Thank you for being so generous!

  67. Carol B says:

    OMG, I need these desperately, I didn’t get any new sneaks for Christmas and now I’m broke…these would be awesome, hope you had a good vacation!
