Jess in MinneapolisFriday's Favorite Fit is the knuckle light!Its sad to admit, but unfortunately it's already dark enough again at 5:30 am to necessitate busting out the knuckle light. Seriously! Fall is creeping up on us too quickly. Dark running is here and its only going to get worse. Knuckle light season is back already! Fortunately, the knuckle light is really functional, which makes it this Continue Reading

By Jess in MinneapolisMen if you're reading, be forewarned. This post mentions boobs!I have struggled in the past to find the perfect sports bra- one that I can wear for 20+ mile runs, with no chafing, with no soreness....I usually have really good luck with the Moving Comfort Serena bra, but I was willing to see what else is out there.This week I splurged on the Lululemon Bitty Bracer.

Fits Do Race Reviews: TC 1 Mile
By Cool J in Minneapolis2013 marked my third year participating in the TC 1 mile, and this is my second year reviewing it for the blog! You can read last year's review HERE.The Medtronic TC 1 Mile is marketed as "one mile (12 city blocks) of fun," and fun it was!

Fits Do Product Reviews: YakTrax Run
Ever since I broke my ankle running on the ice in March of 2008, I have become an avid user of the YakTrax. I have trained for many spring marathons with these sexy accessories. The YakTrax aren't perfect. You could definitely still slip and break an ankle, but they do provide a good amount of traction. Unfortunately though, I have had some bad luck with my YakTrax; they always Continue Reading
