Two things happened today that inspired this month's giveaway:
1. I ran next to super-de-duper runner girl this morning on the treadmills. The girl was cruising and was awesome. However, there was a whole lotta bouncin' going on, if you know what I mean. Ouch.
2. The
Title Nine catalog just showed up in the mail.
We are all -- or mostly all -- women here so I am just going to say it:
Let's wear good, no GREAT, sports bras when we work out.
This is an area that gets ignored since our sports bras are more of a functional item of clothing, and not typically on display (for most of us). After day after day of wearing and washing, stretching and holding -- these bras keel over and die. The elastic snaps, the colors fade, hook and eyes break off, straps break.
I know you know what I'm talking about.
I have about 5 bra corpses in my dresser right now.
We all have our preferences, whether it be the uni-boob look, or maybe you prefer to lift and separate. I personally like the "Chest of Steel" type of bra: I swear my favorite sports bra could double as a bullet proof vest. Since we are all shapes and sizes, there is no one bra fits all. As long it is supporting the girls (or what is left of them, as in my case), go with what works for you.
Title Nine has done a smash up job in their sports bra department. They have a variety of different sports bras for a variety different bodies. Ultra supportive, barely there, underwire, pull overs, back closures -- they've got our back, er, our front.
They also have ridiculously awesome names like:
And the best name to date:
OK, this bra talk could go on for hours. Alas, I must get on to the giveaway:

October Giveaway

** As a side note,
Title Nine has stepped it up in the cute department when it comes to their clothes. Really, you should check them out. If I don't get my hands on one of their
Heartfelt Sweaters (spruce/moss stripe, please), there may be some trouble. Their workout clothes continue to be solid as well. So, if you are not in need of a new sports bra, NO WORRIES! Just enter the giveaway and do some shopping!
