One of the best parts of being an only child is that I learned to LOVE my alone time and doing things by myself. I do love being around people and doing things with my friends, don’t get me wrong. But I love quietly curling up with a book, not having to fight over what…
I find as I get older that my mom and dad were right about so much. Whether it’s safety while out running or that jerk I dated in high school, it all comes back to the advice they gave and the lessons they imparted. So rather than go into the trials of my dating experiences…
There was a brief time when I didn’t run all that much. I ran my way through college, playing club field hockey and running two half marathons. Lifelong knee problems really kicked in my last year of college. The summer before I did a NOLS course, backpacking for weeks in the Lemhi Mountains in Idaho…
I run, so I’m a runner. I think we all have this image that pops up in our minds with the mention of a “runner.” I am not that stereotypical image, that’s for sure. I’m not long and lean (generally no running in a sports bra for me! Hello, tatas!). I don’t run marathons; actually,…
I think this June is going to be the sweatiest EVER! Not only will I be in North Carolina for quite a while (hellllllloooo humidity!) and will I be amping up my running to prepare for my half at the end of the summer, but there are so many ridiculously sweaty things happening. Are you…
#tbt to 8 years ago, just a young little chippy studying abroad in Sevilla, Spain. For years I’d been a runner, mostly playing sports and training for those sports. But I ran a lot. Even though I’d exercised, trained, and been very active for most of my life, I thought I maxed out at 3-4…
It’s that time of year: snow. Cozy sweaters and all the boots. Hot toddies, I mean cider. Twinkle lights. And presents! I love presents. [insert only child joke here] But all jokes aside, I love finding something for my friends and family that fits them perfectly. Something that reminds me of them when I see…
Today’s the last day for #HealthUpYourHolidays with Designer Protein and Fit Approach. For all of November we’ve been getting ready to be happy and healthy for this holiday season. Let’s recap with my favorite prompts from the past month: What I’m most excited about for the holiday season: Winter Wonderland! And of course skiing (backcountry…
Woah did the first week of October fly by! Things have never been busier, or more filled with inspiration! Over here at Sweat Pink HQ we’re talking yoga, sweat, neon dance rave parties, running, and PINK! It’s Breast Cancer Awareness month, and not only are we tracking miles for If Girls Ran the World, but…
Back in May, we got to rock our new AfterShokz headphones at the opening 5k of the United Relay. Before even venturing to the park to run, we tested them out at the house. 5 dancing girls, 5 different songs (1 podcast, in Jamie’s case), 1 conversation. The epitome of successful multitasking. It was such a fun…
