I've worn them for a few races now and have had no issues at all, I worried about them not being tight enough but they're easily adjustable and stay in place. I'm a lock laces convert for sure and will be investing in some other colors soon. I'm sure they're going to be a staple over the next few months of marathon training... I really don't think I need to exert any extra effort tying my shoes...
Lock Laces retail for $7.99/each and come in a variety of colors, they also have multipacks available for purchase on their site.
But if you just enter my giveaway here you might not need to go buy any, I've got TWO sets up for grabs: one orange, and one black!

I'm curious about this puppies and would love to give them a try. Pick me! Pick me!
ReplyDeleteMy first was 10 years ago and I barely trained, stupid mistakes and race sucked but I went back for more :) Running my 22nd marathon in 10 days!
ReplyDeleteI haven't ran a marathon, but I probably will next year. This year I'm training for Tough Mudder in Topeka, KS in September, Spartan in Lincoln NE in October, and a 21 mile trail run put on by the G.O.A.T.z
ReplyDeleteMy first marathon was the Route 66 Marathon in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I'm not from that area and don't know anyone there, but I chose that marathon because it was on my birthday and they also give a special medal for first time marathoners. The last few miles were tough but I felt so proud at the end to have finished.
ReplyDeleteMy first mara was the Calgary MArathon. MAy 2012. I had a goal of 5 hours. I finished in 5 hours 10minutes. At first i was sad as I didn't hit my time. ut at the finish I realized i ran the last 4 km in 25 mins!!!!! There is NO other feeling of amazing accomplishment as know you DID one of these bad boys! I just have to work on my mind a it...i think i will do another mara next may...for teh 50th anniversary of the Calgary Mara!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't run a marathon yet but I want to soon! I have a 10k in June and hoping to find another half marathon shortly after that!
ReplyDeleteI'll also be running my first 1/2 marathon this fall in Victoria, and i'll love to have a pair of Lock Laces to ensure I never have to worried about my shoes coming untied during my training!
ReplyDeleteI haven't run one yet, but I'd love to train for one!
ReplyDeleteI ran the WDW Marathon January 2013 after only starting C25K 6mo before!!! While I was under-trained, I made up for it in heart and determination. It was so great to CONGA across the finish line with the amazing group of BFRs from "Corral G". I'm now training to run The Dopey Challenge January 2014 for St Jude. http://heroes.stjude.org/jillbarnes
ReplyDeleteI just ran my first half marathon today, and I am planning to run a full marathon in either December or January. Maybe next year (2014) I can do a challenge!
ReplyDeleteI'm mostly focusing on getting back to normal post injury, but there's definitely goals. First Half Marathon, sub 25min 5k and sub 55min 10k. It will ALL happen, sooner or later! :)
ReplyDeleteCurrently training for my 1st half.....but motivated to keep going!
ReplyDeleteCurrently sidelined due o ITBS & knee pain. Ran my 1st Half in Feb., 2nd Half a month later, and a 10 miler the next month. I just registered for the St. Jude Half in Memphis in December.
ReplyDeleteMy first marathon....I finished last, but most importantly I FINISHED!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently training for the Scotiabank half marathon in less than three weeks! First marathon will hopefully be BMO next year.
ReplyDeleteMy first marathon was amazing. Love every minute of it, even when the last several miles were killing me.
ReplyDeleteHavent done a marathon. I am training for my first half though (AllState 13.1 in Atlanta)
ReplyDeleteI am training for a 10K. I've never run any races yet but so far can run 6K without walking (on hills!). Super proud of myself. I just started running a few months ago and love it.
ReplyDeleteMy first race was the best experience I ever had. It's when I first learned my love for running!
