It’s Commit to Fit Friday. Time for a fitness update and a giveaway!

This past week as been a bit strange for me on the fitness front.  On Sunday morning, I woke up wicked early and ran 8.5 miles, as part of my half marathon training.  I felt great during and after the run.  I had a bit of soreness on Monday and Tuesday, but nothing horrible or debilitating.

I went to the gym on Monday morning to work out some of the soreness on the elliptical machine.  We had 2 occupational therapy appointments on Tuesday and Wednesday morning, so I couldn’t get to the gym. I had planned to go to the gym yesterday, but decided not to because it seems I have fallen victim to the nasty respiratory yuck that my children seem to have brought home from school.  I decided to take it easy and go for a brisk walk instead.

I’m hoping to run 4 or 5 miles this weekend, if I’m feeling up for it.

So…you’re jumping back on the fitness bandwagon. We’ve got tunes…but what about some workout clothes!  As part of the Commit to Fit campaign, Subway wants to help outfit you in your fitness endeavors.

Today we’re giving away a $50 Gift Card to Lulu Lemon. Plus a Green Gaiam gym bag and a yoga mat!

I had the opportunity to shop at Lulu Lemon when I was in New York.  I was completely impressed!  I now have a pair of running shorts and a running shirt.  While the gear may cost a bit more than other name brands, the quality of the material is light years beyond others.  Over the years I have used a variety of “name brand” fitness gear, and the pieces that I got from Lulu Lemon far exceed any and all other brands I’ve worn before. I will say this one thing…it is well worth the investment!
