As a stay at home/work at home Mom, you can usually find me in workout or athleisure any day of the week. It's comfy and ideal to have on so I can squeeze in a workout without having to change my outfit. So today, I thought I'd share some of my favorite brands and where I get it from since I've been getting questions from people on where I get my workout wear. From budget friendly to splurge worthy, I got ya covered! Budget friendly finds: Old Navy // They always have fun prints, and Read More

Sweat, sunshine and smiles...doesn't get much better than that! On this week's workout and meal plan: So my husband and I have been eyeing up the instapot and air fryer lately.

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
My Favorite Winter Workouts
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Mizuno. The opinions and text are all mine. Every winter when those cold temps hit Chicago, I take my workouts inside. For these winter months, I trade in my neighborhood stroller route and trail runs for indoor workouts. Although I do have a treadmill and use it pretty regularly, I often reach for a variety of workouts so I get in some strength/agility training, which I've found really helps me when it comes time to get back Read More

A 5k with my buddy... (Man, laying back, enjoying the ride with a handful of Cheerios sure sounds nice, right?!) After the Wisconsin Half Marathon in May, I haven't been running all that regularly-- whoops! I've been mixing it up with my workouts, but I still do a 5k stroller run route with my buddy at least once a week. I've been missing longer runs, so I'm excited to do one of my favorite 10k races in August. If you are local, check out the details and join me! The details: Gurnee Days Read More
Links and Loves from the Week
I started training for my 4th half marathon a couple weeks ago…first few long runs have been on the treadmill till the temps are somewhat tolerable. That said, anyone have a good series on Netflix they’d recommend? Speaking of, geeking out over these impressive journal designs runners have come up with. The cutest app for documenting your kiddos. (Wish there was an Android version- does anyone know of a similar one?) Tweets that sum up your life with 3 year olds. Hilarious. How to Read More
