Fastinista – Summer Watermelon

Fastinista – Summer Watermelon

Does it already feel like summer or do you wish for summer to get here?  Why not dress up cool like summer to get your wish? I wore this outfit on plenty of group runs to many compliments. I was told that I looked very like ‘summer’ and another person told me that I looked like a watermelon! So why not? Summer Watermelon it is! Skirt Sports’ Gym Girl Ultra in Pink crush paired up perfectly with a green Tshirt….

I’m Going to Bootcamp

I’m Going to Bootcamp

Last week while catching up on my blog readings, I came across one that mentioned doing an online bootcamp. Huh? An online bootcamp? I was intrigued and had to check it out. Scheduled by Tina Raele and called “Best Body Bootcamp”, the description read “An 8 Week Fitness Program adapted for all fitness levels and geared to improving your lifestyle.” I have been trying to land on a strength training routine and was having time conflict issues trying to find…

Fastinista – Fall into Fall

Fastinista – Fall into Fall

The long hot and humid summer had me longing for Fall temperature. And on the first weekend after labor day and the official end of summer, I wished and willed for Fall to start with a Fall outfit. Starting with my trusty SparkleTech Skirt, this print aptly named ‘Autumn’ . There is a lot of Red and Black in the skirt, but just enough of orange shades that a generic orange T-shirt will go perfectly with it.

Fastinista – Mom who dreams of Island Paradise

I love my running outfits and always (well, almost always) try to be coordinated and look put together. I am not fast, so I might as well look pretty while running! And looking good makes me feel good about my running! I always start my outfit with my skirt. We all had ordered the Peacock Island SparkleTech and thats what we decided to wear together. Gorgeous vibrant colors that neither the stock picture nor our modeling picture does justice. Karen…
