Product reviews for trendy Moms & Dads, their children & pregnant moms
Nothing like christening a new workout jacket but putting it on for the first time and running in a 10 mile race, right? When the morning of the Broad Street Run came, it was chillier than predicted and I quickly grabbed my new jacket from Champion to keep me toasty while I ran my big race. I wore it for the first three miles, tied it to my waist … [Read more...]
Over Presidents Day weekend, the fam & I took a trip to the Philadelphia Premium Outlets in Limerick, PA. I had never been before and boy did we score big! Not only do all of the stores have fab outlet prices, but we picked the right weekend to go - nearly every store was having additional clearance sales for Presidents Weekend. Like seriously, … [Read more...]
As I write this, I'm onto day 5 of nursing my 9 year old, who is home sick with the flu. (I posted earlier this week if you're in the same boat as me and want to see how I'm nursing him - What You Need to Help Your Kids Get Through the Flu.) I didn't want my fitness routine to suffer and I had hubby around over the weekend so I could scoot out to … [Read more...]
I've been officially sworn off the credit card for the month of January after the month of spending we had in December. So other than groceries, I'm trying hard to stay away from my retail addiction but it's awfully hard with some of the sales going on! And this latest from Athleta had me foaming at the mouth since they are typically so stingy … [Read more...]
I'm really not a big fan of having a specific New Years Resolution. I used to set them - it would be the same one pretty much through my entire twenties. Go on a diet, lose weight, exercise. I mean, come on - sooooo original, right? And of course because I was in my twenties, I'd wake up hungover New Years morning and get discouraged when I … [Read more...]
A couple of weeks ago, I noticed a conversation going on over on Twitter with a bunch of Fitfluential Ambassadors. They were challenging themselves and the online community to run 13 in 2013. At first, I thought it meant running a half marathon but when I clicked over, I loved the challenge even more when I realized that wasn't it - it's 13 … [Read more...]
Really excited to announce today that I've been accepted as a Fitfluential Ambassador! I've been online stalking these guys for awhile now - it's a great community of parents who feel passionate about fitness and healthy living. Those of you who read my blog or know me in person know that I really turned things around a couple of years back. … [Read more...]

Man was I excited when I heard that they were opening an Athleta at the King of Prussia Mall, only a 15 minute drive from my house. I've been a huge Athleta fan for eons and the idea that I'd actually get to visit one of their stores in real life (rather than ordering online, as I've done for years) made me giddy! So when I got the invite to come … [Read more...]
I've got a new mantra when I run. It's pretty simple, it's: Yes I can. I've been writing a lot more lately about running. I'm not new to running - I've been hitting the pavement since high school but I've never really progressed with my running and I've always been kind of slow. I've been a go out and run a couple of miles at most kind … [Read more...]
