Wednesday Giveaway!

May 11th, 2011

Today’s giveaway comes to us courtesy of the co-authors of Hot (Sweaty) Mamas: Five Secrets to Life as a Fit Mom.

Kara Thom and Laurie Kocanda go beyond “getting your pre-baby body back,” by offering advice on how to fold fitness into a busy mom’s life. The wit and wisdom they offer prove that being fit and being a mom are not mutually exclusive. Hot (Sweaty) Mamas addresses the realities fit moms face. In an excerpt for the book, here are a few funny ways their surveyed moms go to extremes to get in a workout…

Swam laps using a pull buoy between my ankles and dragging my daughter from it.

I once had to whip a nursing infant off a boob as the gun went off for a 5K. I started the run with her startled and half fed in a jogging stroller.

I ran up and down the stairs for thirty minutes. One child sat in a bouncy chair at the top of the stairs and the other sat with his blocks at the bottom of the stairs.

Craziest thing I’ve ever ‘done’ to get my workout in was my husband on our kitchen countertop. He never says no to me doing a long run after that!

For a chance to win a copy of this very motivating book, please send an email through the H&H Contact page and tell me how YOU fit in a workout. THREE winners will be chosen at random tomorrow. Good luck!!!
