Fresh New Fit: ClassPass has arrived in Minneapolis/St. Paul!

December 31, 2014 By Jessie Benson 3 Comments

I'm excited to head home in a few weeks for a lot of reasons, but I have a new one! ClassPass has launched in Minneapolis/St.Paul and I will be trying it out for the month of January! I had read about ClassPass on a variety of other blogs, so when they contacted me to let me know that they were coming to Minneapolis, I was incredibly excited; this is RIGHT up my alley, as I have tons of class Continue Reading

The Right Fits Most Loved Posts of 2014

December 30, 2014 By Jessie Benson 6 Comments

As 2014 comes to a close, I thought I should look back at the 10 most popular posts at the Right Fits of 2014. In October, I made a big change to the blog design and unfortunately, I lost a lot of readers. I'm hoping some of you find your way back, but even if you don't, I'll just keep on writing...because I really like doing it. It's my online journal. It's my creative outlet. And this year Continue Reading

Fits on the Road: Phuket, Thailand

December 28, 2014 By Jessie Benson 13 Comments

Phuket, Thailand was pretty amazing. Beautiful beaches, cheap and amazing food, friendly people, fascinating culture...I only got a quick taste of it, but I definitely recommend it. Before I left Singapore to fly to Phuket, I was second guessing whether I should have spent the money to go there on my own. It seemed like kind of a waste. But now that I am back I can say it was totally worth it. Continue Reading

Fits on the Road: Exploring Sentosa Island & Johor Bahru

December 25, 2014 By Jessie Benson 13 Comments

When I ask around as to what I should do while in Singapore, a lot of people suggest Sentosa Island. I didn't make it there the last time I was in Singapore, so I figured I probably should go. The thing is, I wasn't really all that excited about checking out Sentosa Island, as it just didn't seem like my cup of tea. But nonetheless, last Saturday, I figured out what buses to take and made my Continue Reading

The Right Fits’ Tips for Dealing with Jet Lag

December 19, 2014 By Jessie Benson 3 Comments

If you are new to the Right Fits- welcome! Did you hear about the Right Fits via my interview with Twin Cities in Motion? Yay! So to fill you in, I'm a Minneapolis girl on a temporary assignment in Singapore for work. I am training for the Tokyo marathon while I am here. I am by no means an expert traveler, but I do feel like I recovered pretty quickly from the jet lag from traveling 24 Continue Reading

Fits Do Fitness Class Reviews: Ziva Yoga in Singapore

December 18, 2014 By Jessie Benson 7 Comments

If you have been reading my weekly recaps, you know that most of my fitness here in Singapore has been in the form of running. I did try out one barre class last week. I really want to fit in more classes while I'm here, but I am usually at the office pretty late. So, that means I have to get out to explore the fitness world on the weekends right? I did just that this past Sunday. I googled Continue Reading
