Do you wear leggings as much as I do? Not only are they great for working out, but they are so.dang.comfortable that they are perfect for casual, athleisure looks and even dressier options. Everlane just launched their own collection of leggings – in core & seasonal colors – and after reviewing a pair, I have to say they are pretty good! The premium performance fabric is buttery smooth and light. It is sweat-wicking with compression (aka smoothing!), but also fairly matte (I did notice a Read More

Switching Things Up: Lauren Gleisberg’s Fitmas Challenge
As we enter into the holiday season and the new year, I was in search of a program to help me switch things up fitness-wise. I usually work out 5 days a week, doing a mix of cardio (spin or running) and strength workouts all via Peloton. Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE my Peloton, but I needed a little change. This past summer after my 5th half marathon, my right knee started to give me trouble. I would go for a run and at the 2 mile mark, I'd have shooting pain down my leg to the point that Read More

September Fitness Check In
In the past, summer has been my season for a busy race schedule. And while I still love a good race, it's a bit more challenging this season with a toddler and a now 3 month old. Regardless, I still love to be active and aim to work up a sweat 5 days a week. My current workout schedule consists of 2-3 days of spinning, 1-2 days of strength training and 1 day a week to actually run (which is usually pushing my three year old for a 5k loop in my neighborhood.) For quite a while, I was crushing Read More
