Yurbuds Review and Giveaway
| October 26, 2012 | Posted by Carrie under Fitness Friday, giveaway, Running |
A few weeks ago, I received an exciting package in the mail. (Yes, I love getting packages in the mail, I think they’re all exciting. Even the ones I paid for.) But, in this case, the amazing people at Yurbuds were sending me a pair of headphones to try.
I opened the package to find a pair of pink headphones. PINK! How fun.
Yurbuds has come out with a line of headphones especially for women and people with smaller ears called Inspire. I almost always run with music and was inspired to try these out.
The technology of these headphones is pretty great.
Twistlock: you put the headphone in and give it a twist to lock it in. Yurbuds are made with silicone and are soft and comfortable.
I was a little worried that the shape with the pointy part was going to feel weird in my ear. I have to say that I noticed the shape, but once I started running I forgot it was even there. According to their website, Yurbuds are also sweat and water resistant. Nice!
There are several models of Yurbuds. The Inspire Pro and the Focus Pro come with controls and a mic on the cords. Love that.
The twistlock technology of the Yurbuds was so comfortable and snug fitting that I need to adjust my bad habit of ripping out my headphones quickly when I’m finished or needing an interruption in my workout. I’m not sure if it’s worse on my ear or the structure of the headphones.
And guess what – the amazing people at Yurbuds are letting me give away a pair of pink Inspire Yurbuds to one of my amazing readers. Here’s how to enter – leave a comment on this blog post is first and mandatory – let me know what Inspires you to workout. Then, follow the additional entry options on the Rafflecopter thingy below. Contest runs from October 26, 2012 to midnight EST on November 2, 2012. Open to US residents only.
Disclaimer: I received these Yurbuds free of charge. I was not required to write a positive review, all opinions are my own.
And – there are just a few more days left to vote. I would be so thankful if you would click that circle up there and go give me a thumbs up.

If NFL players can wear pink with pride, and forget about them, how about the brave women who fought, are fighting, or supporting fighters; if they can wear pink with pride then so can I. Even pink ear buds.

I have these and love them .. but really want to try the smaller ones designed for women! I’m inspired by seeing other women my age and older working their tails off to stay fit. THAT inspires me! Thanks Carrie!

I love food, so when I see a delicious treat, I know I need to go workout
I run and keep healthy to be a good influence on my daughter. My parents were great but not the healthiest and I started making changes on way back in High School and I want her to see how much fun a healthy lifestyle can be!
I’m always setting new goals for myself (races, fitness goals, etc) that inspire me to workout. Great giveaway- I’ve been wanting to try these!

I’m inspired to work out because i like to stay fit and healthy. I’ve never been able to use earbuds as a headphone so i’m curious to try these out to see if they would work for me.
This makes me even more excited to get mine in the mail!
I’m inspired by other bloggers, the FF community, and seeing the results from the work I’ve already put in.

I am inspired by how great I feel after I run ! It makes me want to go again.
What inspires me to workout is how I feel not just immediately after, but how much better I feel mentally and physically in the weeks and months after I workout regularly. Better posture, tighter body, and most of all, better mental health.
I am inspired by how I feel after I work out, and being people telling me how great I look after losing weight so far! It’s an amazing feeling.
This is so exciting!! I have been wanting to try some of these SO BAD!!!
