Where Fitness and Fashion Meet

My First Long Run in Singapore.

December 5, 2014 By Jessie Benson 5 Comments

It might be Friday night for you, but its lunch time on Saturday for me! I was up early to do my 15 mile long run.  I made it back just in time too, as now its pouring again.  So my afternoon activities will be dictated a little by the weather today. Shopping, perhaps? Technically this is not my first long run in Singapore, since I ran here four years ago, but it's my first long run of the Continue Reading

Fits on the Road: Welcome to Singapore!

December 5, 2014 By Jessie Benson 9 Comments

I'm alive! I apologize that I have been a little MIA over here. I'm adjusting to a lot of things: a 14 hour time difference, a 100 degree temperature difference, and of course the culture shock of working and living on the other side of the world. I'm back now with a super long post for you to enjoy. (Thanks for reading Mom!) I arrived in Singapore very late  Wednesday morning after 24 Continue Reading

One day of overeating is not going to ruin you (or your training goals!) Just vow Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: A Fancy New Collar From Smathers & Branson

November 25, 2014 By Jessie Benson 5 Comments

A couple of weeks ago, Dustin and I enjoyed a lovely brunch at Red Stag after our long run. After brunch, we had some time to kill, so we decided to do some shopping. One of our stops was at Askov Finlayson. Askov Finlayson is primarily a men's clothing store but they also carry an assortment of other goods, including a few items for your favorite canine companion. There, I found a new collar Continue Reading

Fitness Fashion: Sweaty Betty

November 24, 2014 By Jessie Benson 11 Comments

Lululemon, Oiselle, Athleta, Lole...these fashionable fitness apparel companies are a few of my favorites. But there is a new-to-me name that has joined the party- Sweaty Betty! Have you checked out Sweaty Betty? I have been receiving their catalog for awhile now but finally decided to order a few items in October. I decided to purchase the Start Line Long Sleeve Run Top, the Ultra Run Continue Reading
