Where Fitness and Fashion Meet

Fits Do Product Reviews: Handful Bras!

January 11, 2017 By Jessie Benson 16 Comments

I've said it on this blog a million times: a good sports bra is an incredibly important part of your running 'kit!' I've tried so many different brands and types and I definitely have a few favorites, but I'm always keeping my eyes open for new ones. I was really excited to have the opportunity to try out a Handful bra, thanks to the awesome people at Gear Running Store.  I had heard of Continue Reading

Fitness Fashion Friday: “Wantable” Fitness Apparel

March 25, 2016 By Jessie Benson Leave a Comment

Have you heard of Wantable? It's very similar to Stitch Fix, but they offer subscriptions for a variety of items- regular clothing, fitness apparel, makeup, intimates, and accessories. I kept seeing ads for Wantable show up in my Facebook feed (apparently Facebook ads actually work, eh?) so I decided to give it a try. I am reviewing my first box here for you. If you decide to try it out, please be Continue Reading

Fits Do Product Reviews: Yaktrax Run & A Giveaway!

December 11, 2015 By Jessie Benson 37 Comments

Training through the winter in a city like Minneapolis is definitely not for the faint of heart. Our winters are cold, dark, and icy. Running outside can be dangerous; I know firsthand the perils of running outside in Minneapolis in the winter. In 2008, I slipped on the ice during a solo morning run. I hobbled back to my house and took a cab to the emergency room only to find out I had broken Continue Reading

Fits Do Product Reviews: Joovy Zoom360 Jogging Stroller

October 21, 2015 By Jessie Benson Leave a Comment

My sister Laurie wrote this post to share her review of her Joovy Zoom360 Jogging Stroller- I hope you find this useful! Guest Post/Fits Do Product Review: Joovy Zoom360 Jogging Stroller Even before I was pregnant, I knew that I would want a jogging stroller. I think that any “mother runner” #BAMR or “father runner” (is that a thing?) would want one. So true to form, my husband and I started Continue Reading

Fits do Product Reviews: GoodSport Anti-Chafing Cream

February 11, 2015 By Jessie Benson 5 Comments

Chafing isn't a fun topic to talk about...it's not fun to experience either! I'm not going to shy away from it here on the Right Fits as unfortunately, it's common issue for runners. I did this post with tips for dealing with chafing and I definitely struggle with it. It does seem that most runners experience chafing issues more often in the hot summer months, but it can happen at any Continue Reading

FIts Do Product Reviews: The Athleta Forerunner Tank

July 20, 2014 By Jessie Benson Leave a Comment

Another great long run- complete! Yesterday, I ran 14 miles with the Calhoun Beach Running Club (I'm training for the OBX Marathon in November!)  It wasn't nearly as humid as last week but still hot.  Unfortunately our route did not include a lot of water fountains, so it definitely felt tough. For a hot July long run, it's important to wear light weight clothes that whisk away all the Continue Reading
