Happy Tilda Tuesday! I have a guest post for you today from a fellow blogger. Katie blogs at Prairie Ponderings. We connected over our shared love of running and vizslas!

Fit Tip Friday: Tips & Gear for Running in the Dark

October 24, 2014 By Jessie Benson 9 Comments

If you're a morning runner like me, you have probably noticed that it's pretty dark out there in the early hours these days. I don't think the sun even rises until 7:30 am! So if you are fitting in your run in before work, you're probably running in the dark. How can you stay safe when running in the dark? Though I can (and will) write a whole other post with safety tips for running in the Continue Reading

Tilda Tuesday: Matilda the Vizsla’s Best (or Worst) Running Experiences

October 21, 2014 By Jessie Benson 9 Comments

Last week, I shared my “Best (or Worst) of My Racing Experiences” (<--have you linked up yet? Please do!)  Matilda my vizsla pup felt a little left out, as she has only done one official race (the Fast & Furry 8k). But even so, she wanted to share some of her own Best (or Worst) Running Experiences. Hottest Run: Tilda has run in temperatures in the 90's, but always nice and easy Continue Reading

October 21, 2014 By Jessie Benson 42 Comments

I was recently contacted by the owner and "Chief Inspirational Officer" (love it!) of [solidcore] MSP to come try out a class at their new studio in the West End in St. Louis Park.* I tried it out tonight and am excited to share my experience with you! To be honest, I hadn't heard of this new studio yet...probably because they just opened on Saturday! Though I'm always excited to try a new Continue Reading

Weekly Recap: Peak Week of Marathon Training Ending with a Capitol Run!

  This week was my peak week of marathon training for the Outer Banks Marathon. You know what else it was the peak week of? Fall colors in Minneapolis! Pictures cannot even capture how gorgeous the Twin Cities are right now. Every day that I drive down my street, I am seriously in awe of how pretty it all is.

Thank you for stopping by!

This is my blog about finding The Right "Fit." I'm an avid runner, marathon enthusiast, and fitness experimentalist who uses my little space of the internet to share my passion for and experiences with running and fitness (...and a little about fashion.)

I write mostly about running and my quest to run a marathon in every state and every continent. But you'll also find some information about different fitness classes in the Twin Cities and more.
