A Perfect Stocking Stuffer Giveaway!


Hey everyone! Are you having a tough time deciding what you can fill your stockings with? I'm having a GIVEAWAY that will make a great stocking stuffer for anyone on your list who loves running, hiking, walking, or anything involving their feet.. I am giving away three pairs of OrthoLite Fusion insoles!  

*Disclaimer: OrthoLite provided me with a pair of insoles to try, but the review is my own, and I was not compensated for my opinion on them.



Here's what they look like - OrthoLite Fusion Insoles.


It's been cold here lately, so I bundled B up, gave him Scott's iPod with the movie UP playing, and bribed him with some snacks to go running with me so I could put the insoles to the test. 


First, I ran 3 miles with my usual shoes. 


Then I came back and switched my used insoles for the OrthoLite insoles and ran 3 more miles. 


I instantly felt a difference in comfort with the OrthoLite insoles.  


I wasn't sure how much of a difference I would feel, but there was definitely a noticeable difference. I hadn't realized how bad my old insoles were. The Ortholite insoles almost made my shoes feel new again. I've never replaced the insoles in my shoes before. I usually just wear my shoes until the insoles are worn out, and then get new shoes. But after running with these new insoles I realized that replacing my insoles would be a cheaper, easier way to extend the life of my running shoes. I could also tell that the insoles absorbed a lot of the pounding, and that will make a HUGE difference on my long runs.

Here's a little more information about OrthoLite Fusion insoles:

For years they were found exclusively in many of the top athletic shoes, but are now available for purchase to go in any pair of shoes. 

OrthoLite Fusion insoles are available at ortholite.com for $19.99:

Designed to fit all athletic and outdoor shoes or boots.
Made with open-cell foam, allowing air to circulate around the foot, keeping it cooler and drier inside the shoe.
Wicks moisture away from your foot leaving your foot cooler and drier.
Unique spring-back technology ensures that your insole won’t flatten out and it will retain over 95% of its thickness over time.
Our patented anti-microbial formulation (approved by the EPA and FDA) fights fungus, bacteria and shoe odor.
Lightweight and fully washable.


This test was a nice reminder of what a difference good shoes and GOOD INSOLES really do make.
