The following post is sponsored by Sweatpink on behalf of AMRAP. All opinions are my own. I was not compensated monetarily for this blog post. Being a busy working athlete, I’m always on the lookout for easy to carry nutrition that I can eat on the go and that can stay at the bottom of my purse until the day I am hungrily digging through it frantically. And bars are an essential part of my repertoire. I stash a variety…
As part of the FitApproach and VegaSport collaboration, I was sent a box of Vega Sport Recovery Accelerator to try. As a User Experience Architect and Brand Strategist in my real life, I looked at their Vega Sport’s campaign for #FuelYourBetter and was really impressed. This is what the Vega Sport website has to say about their recovery accelerator – “The first all-natural, plant-based recovery drink mix specifically developed to address all six key elements of post-workout recovery: muscle glycogen…

In the early days, all I knew was I had to run and I had to “stretch” after the run. Inspite of this “stretching”, I had “issues” every time I crossed mile 9-10.

Wait…
This post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of Koss. All opinions, as always, are my own. I was recently sent the Koss Fit Series headphones (the FitBuds and the FitClips) to review as part of a FitFluential campaign. If you aren’t familiar with the Fit Series, Koss’ designers teamed up with Gold Medalist Dara Torres to create the world’s first headphones designed specifically for women, by women. Given my history with active headphones, I was a bit skeptical. Both…
As a (faux) runner, I have been looking avidly at different types of cross-training and strength training. Of late, given the constraints of time in a full-time working mom’s life, I have started looking into at home DVDs and have been doing the couple I have. I was looking to change things up when I received this DVD from Cathe. The ‘All Out Low Impact HIIT’ is part of the X-Train series. When I first got the DVD, I was…
