Here are my fun, informative or useful in some other way, items I wanted to share with you guys today. Hope everyone had a great week, I'm certainly happy to be wrapping mine up!
Brand Name Running Accessories- Cheaper
Last week, one of my super duper sweet members brought me a gift card to Home Goods/Marshalls and when I popped in, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Marshalls actually has a BUNCH of fairly priced running (and other fitness related) items. They had a bunch of different hydration belts, hand held water bottles, a variety of regular brand named water bottles (Nike, Nalgene, etc), arm bands for your ipod/phone, headbands, clip on lights, and a variety of other Fitness equipment like dumbbells, physioballs, yoga straps/mats etc. If you're considering making any miscellaneous running gear purchases, I would check there first!
Yurbuds Headphones
So a couple months ago, my very favorite headphones in the entire world, that I have used for years and years, were stolen. I have since been running with a men's pair that Michael lent to me. (He's so sweet). Unfortunately, the ear bud piece is too large for my ear and so I spend a lot of my sweaty runs putting them back into my ears as they fall out. For anyone who has ever done a speed workout, or long distances in which you can't even remember how much time you have left because you're so tired, the last thing you want to be doing is messing with your headphones. Last week must have been my lucky week because I ALSO got a gift card from a good friend of mine to Target and I was finally able to buy a new pair of headphones. These Yurbuds are the same brand Michael had, but are the smaller woman's version and happen to fit me perfectly. They are sweat resistant, adjustable and come in super cute colors. Of course, I got the pink ones. But I have loved them so far, and once I pop them in, I don't have to think about them again until I'm taking them off my head. Perfect timing for my race coming up...tomorrow!
JK Rowling's The Cuckoo's Calling
A member brought me this book to read, and being the huge Harry Potter fan that I am, I of course, dove right into this book the moment I had a few hours to spare. This book came out in April 2013 under the pseudonym, Robert Galbraith. I think it's SO FREAKING COOL that JK Rowling is such a great writer, she could use a fake name, and still have a national best seller. Of course, people would have bought it knowing she had written it, but to use a fake name and still create another completely different story in a different genre, I mean, that is talent. I got a chance to read five chapters Monday evening and my plan for my Friday evening definitely includes sitting pool side with this book. It's already pulled me in, very much so, and I can't wait to finish it! If you're a Harry Potter fan, her writing style in this book is exactly the same, you will certainly recognize it.
