Do You Sweat With A Sweaty Band?


I kept seeing them everywhere. I had a couple of friends who just LOVED them, but I hadn't tried them yet. What am I talking about? .... well Sweaty Bands of course. So I wanted to see what all of the hype was about, and I tried them myself. My first thought when I got them in the mail was.. "Wow, these are really are cute."



So I took one out for a little test run to see how I liked it. Below is the red-faced post run pic. And yes, the Sweaty Band stayed in place.


But I've also found another use for my Sweaty Band, and that is post run hair. My Lil Man has now started pre-school, and normally (to be honest) I've never really cared what I looked like running or immediately post run. But since I'm running during his pre-school and picking up him up immediately after my run, I've been a little more 'aware' of my post run look since I'm now required to be surrounded by non-sweaty individuals who are picking up their kids. So I'm finding that my sweaty band comes in handy post run in addition to using it while running. :) 

And I would like to give one of my readers a chance to get their very own Sweaty Band. The giveaway ends October 16, 2013.

Full Disclosure: Sweaty Band provided me with a sample free of charge for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.

    Yes, I have to admit that my garmin is probably my favorite accessory also :)

Self Care Is Not Selfish It's Necessary

It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. And I'll say it just one more time in case you didn't hear me. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. I have found through experience that when I'm not taking care of myself, not only do I suffer but my family suffers. So ditch the mom guilt and take the time that you need! I have a tendency to keep pushing my needs aside until I reach a breaking point. We've had a very busy fun summer so far. However, I've struggled to get some quality ' me ' time to decompress. I'll spare you the meltdown that ensued. But the reality check that followed prompted me to take action.

Pinrose Petal Pack Review and Giveaway - 10 Winners!

Bear with me, I know this blog is mainly about fitness, nutrition, and occasionally about being a stay-at-home mom, but I got the chance to review what I think is a pretty cool product and I wanted to share it with you. I'm not one to usually wear perfume. I have allergies, and I'm super sensitive to smells. So usually I just bypass perfume. But when I heard about Pinrose , I was intrigued. Being someone who is constantly in motion, and I know that many of you are the same way, I found this product to be very useful.  I'm talking about Pinrose, and their fragrances are in petal packs. They are perfect on-the-go packs. And on their website they have a  synesthesia   test where you basically look at a series of images and they conclude from that test what they think would be your best fragrances. I found the test very interesting. However, you were supposed to go with your gut and not think too long. On one of the images I actually changed my mind and changed...

Marathon Training No One Said It Would Be Easy Or Even Always Fun

 No one said that it would be easy, or that it would always be enjoyable, and always fun. But when you've made a commitment - it's a commitment - and you see it through (and no I'm not talking about marriage, although I could easily make a correlation between the two ). I'm referring to my marathon training. See, last Sunday I had a 14 mile run on the schedule. Mentally I felt blah. Physically I felt 'ok' but not stellar. And when it came down to it, my mental blah won in the end and I bailed at 6 miles on my 14 mile run. If I thought I felt bad mentally before, I really felt bad mentally after bailing on the run. My trainer, being the trainer that she is, simply said, can you get in a 2 hour or so run on Monday? Gulp, I suppose so. And that's just what I did. It required me getting up before the sun woke up so that I could get in a 2 hour run before Hubby went to work. I am TERRIFIED of running solo in the dark. But I had bailed on my Long Run...
