By: LLI love this time of year - when the weather is getting warmer (however slowly that may be) and the daylight hours are getting longer (less need to run with a headlamp). This is one of my favorite times to be a runner. As we all know a good run (or a good workout) can greatly improve your mood, but that good mood is intensified when you have the warm sun on your shoulders at 4:30 in the Continue Reading
Fits on the Road: Planning for Big Sky (Pt.1)
By: LLCool J, D-man, my husband, and I are making the pilgrammage to Big Sky, MT for an extended weekend of skiing/boarding. Since our wedding took up most of our time last year, my husband (a competitive alpine skier in college) and I are excited to be back on the ski trip circuit after a year away - and I am especially excited about all the fits - both in fashion and fitness - that I Continue Reading
Guest Fit: Vicki on ResoLULUtion Bootcamp
My friend Vicki, is a fellow fitness enthusiast who offered to share her recent experience with the ResoLULUtion bootcamp! "Recently I was on the hunt for some free fitness options that I know are out there if you look hard enough, and are somewhat flexible in your schedule. I, like the Right Fits bloggers, love fitness and trying new classes/gyms but I spend a lot of money doing that (“it is Continue Reading
Fits Do Fitness Class Reviews: 20-20-20
By: LLI was recently asked to work as a sub for a fellow trainer's 20-20-20 class. During my spin instructing sabbatical, I have relished every opportunity to teach and try new classes. However, since I have never taken a 20-20-20 class, I knew that I needed to try out a few before I would feel comfortable filling in. So the other day, I went to my first 20-20-20 over my lunch. For those of you Continue Reading
Fundamental Fit: Beer and Running
By: LLAn ideal topic for the end of the work week!For many of us, the light at the end of a long (heck, even a short) road race is the requisite beer. It doesn't matter how early in the morning, or how grueling the course. For many runners, a congratulatory beer is part of the experience. The famous Hash House Harriers have made worldwide clubs based on the mutual enjoyment of running and a cold Continue Reading
Fitting Debate: Running in Hot vs. Cold Temperatures (Pt 3)
By JessieMy husband and I are not currently training for a marathon- our next one is not until June so we won't need to seriously start training until mid-February. Right now, we are just keeping a solid base for mileage, which means we don't have to run. This could have been our excuse yesterday, when our outdoor thermometer read -3 degrees with a windchill. However, the D-man Continue Reading
Forgettable Fit: Resolution Exercisers!
By: LLAs I mentioned in an earlier post, I just got back from spending 10 days back in the Midwest for late holiday celebrations and a friend's wedding. Whereas it was a wonderful time, wrapped up in a flurry of fun activities and good company, it also was filled with too much food and little exercise. Not a good combination! I definitely tried to fit in fitness while I was on the road, but Continue Reading
