It’s no secret that I love Sparkly Soul Headbands – they are one of the ONLY companies who make headbands that actually do not slip off my head. What’s the secret? Unlike other headbands that use elastic at the bottom part of the band to make it fit around your head, these bands use the no-slip material all the way around. They fit perfect my larger than average head and don’t slip.
I have been obsessed with sparkling a little bit on each run since I ran Hood To Coast last year in a Team Sparkle Skirt.
Here is your chance to win one thin sparkle band and one thick sparkle band of your choice.

I find my strong by continuing to push through each day. In early 2010, I herniated a lumbar disc in my back. I ended up in horrible pain for months and months. Finally, after not running for over a year and a half, I returned to the sport in December of last year. Even during the times when my back caused me misery, I did my best to be strong and stay active. It’s important to me to be and stay strong and be fit because it makes me who I am.

I find my strong by thinking about all the tough things I have faced in my life and use that as a confidence boost to keep digging deep and pushing my limits. I also find strength in reflecting on the blessings I have in my life – I feel I was given healthy lungs and legs for a reason, God has a big plan for me and so much good and love can be spread by lacing up my shoes, heading out the door and not taking a single run for granted! It’s the best way I know how to show gratitude for the healthy body I was given.

The timeliness of this giveaway is crazy! I was just thinking that I’d ask for one for Mother’s Day. After using slippery headbands for years I’d love one that actual stays put. I find my strong each day by just doing. No complaints no excuses. I get it done no matter what I’ve got going in my day. I wouldn’t want it any other way!
I find my strong by trying new things. I’m dabbling in triathlon world right now and am taking a kettlebell class. I also took adult swim lessons this winter and finally learned flip turns!

I find my strong by finding races that challenge and inspire me – like trail races (although I seem to have coordination challenges, I will figure it out!). Never give up!

I find my strong by helping others find theirs!
I “Find My Strong” everyday by digging deep and practicing what I preach. As a Personal Trainer I give it my all in my training, but also to my clients. It’s important to share and educate my passion to those who need my help. I “Sparkle On” by smiling, laughing, and spreading my love for health and fitness. Positive energy is contagious, especially when you sparkle.

I would LOVE to win the headband!! I find my strong by always trying to be better than I was yesterday. My body is my temple and I treat it lije a the best I can. Love staying strong, being a role model for others, and keeping fit!!
I find my strong by not giving up and giving in to lies in my head that say, “you are not a runner” or “you will never be fast”. With 4 kids it is easy to find excuses that I am too busy, but I won’t give up!
I follow; I tweet; I am looking for a quality headband that works with shorter hair and my teenny-tinny head.

I find my strong by being active in every way I can. I love the feeling in my legs after a good run. I love to run, but I also love to play football, soccer, softball, and dodgeball. I’m on social teams for all of the above and it’s nice knowning I’m not the out of shape person on the team!
Oh, and I find my strong so I can wear ridiculously tall heels for hours on end! You need muscles to pull off 4 inch heels

I think about my kids saying things like: “look at everything you do. this is nothing. you’ve got this.” OR “When I was running up the hill I thought about the big hill you train on. I thought if you can do that one, I can do this.” I find my strong to be an example and to feel accomplished!!
I follow all 4 of those
I find my strong by staying focused and dedicated. Reminding myself of all that I’ve accomplished reminds me I can do anything! I’m a huge fan of sparkly soul and all things purple so those definitely help me to feel sparkly!

I find my strong and sparkle on by thinking about all of the people who have supported me and challenged me to be the best me.
I find my strong and sparkle,but challenging myself to do things I never thought I was capable of doing. Like running a marathon. Signing up for my first WARRIOR DASH. Getting involved with a group that does Crossfit.
I find my strong by pushing myself out of my comfort zone every day, and see what my mind and body can really do.

I FIND MY STRONG by focusing on the positive. Changing what I can and accepting what I can’t. In terms of fitness, there is nothing more motivating than RESULTS:)
I just recently found my strong. I am running the Boston Marathon but was injured last Sunday in a race, I just pushed myself to hard. The last thing I wanted to do was stop running completely. But through out all the ups and downs of taking a week of rest, I found that I am really a runner. Injury is a part of being a runner and during that time off I reflected and found that I truely missed running, and that just goes to show how passionate I am about it and that it is not just a form of exercise for me.

I find my strong by thinking of my son. He plays competitive baseball. So he practices 3 days a week and plays between 4-6 games a weekend. He’s only 8, he never complains, and he works hard. I tell myself if such he can push himself to be the best he can be, then I really have no excuse.
I find my strong by remembering everyone I know who’d love to be able to run but can’t.
I get my strong on every day by training for my upcoming race – I find that having a race on my calendar helps me stay dedicated and passionate. I get my sparkle on by rocking running outfits that make me feel confident and fun.
Thanks for hosting!

I find my strong by thinking positive thoughts before and during long runs! I CAN run a marathon (in 6 weeks!).
