"  I recently had a physical examination with my primary healthcare physician \u2013 my first since high school, actually. It was painlessly standard, minus the cute phlebotomist who was definitely flirting with me while he was taking my blood (all I could think of with a forced mortified smile was &amp;quot;please don&amp;#039;t flirt with me; I just handed you a cup of urine&amp;quot;). A couple weeks later after my embarrassment subsided, I met with my doctor to discuss the results. Thankfully, they all came out great, but I knew I was in trouble when she asked, &amp;quot;What do you do for regular exercise?&amp;quot; Um, does walking ten blocks to work every morning count? Obviously not, considering she reminded me, &amp;quot;someone your age should be getting at least 30 minutes of exercise, three or four days each week.&amp;quot; That hasn&amp;#039;t happened since yoga was part of my curriculum in college, so I knew I needed some sort of inspiration or a reason to make myself want to work out after a long day. Thankfully, I found it: New Balance and aerie by American Eagle&amp;#039;s new limited-edition NB 600 sneakers. There&amp;#039;s nothing like a new shoe to re-energize your motivation for a little cardio, and these sneakers ($65) won&amp;#039;t drain your account quite like a pair of Louboutins. And since I&amp;#039;m one of many ELLE.comers who know how difficult it is to rejuvenate our love for the gym, we&amp;#039;re giving away three pairs of sneakers in hopes of inspiring you to finally quit with the excuses. And I promise Dr. Pardo, just as soon as I finish the Twilight series I&amp;#039;ll start my 30-minute workouts!    The NB 600 is available exclusively at aerie standalone stores nationwide or visit aerie.com.
