Giveaway | Neon Run Cape Town

Hello sweets I know it has been a while and I too, am very disappointing in myself.  The truth is, I have been rather lazy lately and that lead to the lack of interest in the blog.  Anyhow, moving right along.

I recently discovered how fun running could be, along with the health benefits, I also found that it could possibly be the one thing I am actually good at. Now don't get me wrong, I am not saying I could win the Old Mutual two oceans marathon but I am really good at it.  Anyway enough about me, as you may or may not have heard the Neon Run, South Africa’s most electric and glowing 5km run, is heading for the Mother City this Saturday the 10^th of May 2014 and I do not know about you but I for one am super excited.

The event will consist of a 5km fun run, through different glow zones, and will end in an electric music festival with entertainment by some of SA’s top artists including Chris Taylor, Dean Fuel, ShortStraw, The Kiffness and 5FM’s Roger Goode.

  Neon Run SA aims at bringing thousands of people of all ages and nationalities together under the night skies in one exciting and unique event.  It’s all about having fun and experiencing the Neon lifestyle, whether you are running, walking, skating, rollerblading or cycling as an individual or in a group.  Participants can look forward to several amazing light points with out-of-this world light displays, fire and poi dancers, food stalls and a fully stocked bar. There will also be plenty of seating for those who wish to rest their legs after the race.

Colourful glowing paint and glow sticks will be available at the event, and participants are encouraged to wear any colours that glow such as neon and whites - the crazier the better! There will be spot prizes on the day including a weekend away at the Fire & Ice 4 Star Hotel and other fantastic giveaways.

Neon Run also aims to spread the glow in SA and have announced Life Choices as their official charity partner – a vibrant Youth Organisation working in Cape Town. Sponsors of this fun-filled festival include, 5fm, DSTV, ABI, Coca-Cola, Powerade, Runner’s World and Planet Fitness.

Topshop X adidas Originals

Topshop has collaborated with sportswear brand adidas Originals to create a 20-piece collection, available in stores as at the 20 March ( V&A Waterfront | Sandton City ). The infusion of sportswear with youthful femininity gives the collection versatility that can easily transcend as an everyday fashion staple and sports performance. 

The Topshop design team has raided the adidas Originals archives and reimagined heritage classics in unique street style looks. Classics are re-animated in bespoke prints and re-engineered by cutting edge designers to create the ultimate capsule collection. Iconic silhouettes have been taken right back to basics then cut up for a fresh take on urban favourites. Basic fits are slimmed down while attitude is ramped up.

Prints are inspired by London landscapes as Adidas Originals’ urban heritage comes out to play, preaching new rules and taking no prisoners. The iconic 3 stripes and trefoil shout out from graffiti graphics and high-rise repeats, staking their territory and winning the game.
