I did something a little crazy yesterday- well, crazy for me.I did a two-a-day of running. Yes, I occasionally do two-a-days, but it’s always one run and one other activity- yoga or strength training. I had never done two runs in a day- one in the AM and one in the PM. Two-a-days might be the norm for some of you (particularly you high mileage monsters!), but it was the first time for me. I’m Continue Reading
Fresh New Fit: Stitch Fix: the Home Delivery Personal Shopper!

By Jess in MinneapolisIt's a rainy gloomy Sunday here in Minneapolis. I hope the sun is shining where you are!The rain does somehow motivate me to clean though, so I spent a large part of the day cleaning and organizing, which included switching out my summer running clothes with my cold weather gear (so sad...)I feel like I am back on a somewhat regular workout regime now.

Fits Do Race (Pre)views: Upcoming Thanksgiving Races in the Minneapolis Area.
By Cool J in MinneapolisThe past five years, my family has organized their own 5k. You can check those out HERE and HERE. We "organized" this 5k just for the family. It was an opportunity for us to share a fun run with the whole family, and it was a healthy event where everyone could join.
