Work Out in Comfort & Style This Summer with the Reebok Vector T-Shirt!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

It's officially feeling like summer here in Minnesota and it is hot!! I am back to running after a pretty severe ankle injury and it really is a must-have to find the right shirt that won't ride up, choke me, or expose my stomach while running! I hate having to constantly adjust my shirt while running! Plus, it has to be breathable for all the sweat I have pouring down my back! :)

So, this summer I will be wearing the Reebok® Vector T-Shirt from Dick's Sporting Goods on my runs because it is SUPER comfortable, has a v-neck so I don't have to worry about that dreaded choking feeling while running AND it has extra length on the bottom so I don't have to worry about that riding up either! And this shirt features state of the art Speedwick technology to manage sweat so you stay dry and comfortable while training hard.

Plus, it is super comfortable to wear out and about on a daily basis too! When I want a comfortable shirt for working around the house, running to the store or just laying around the house relaxing, I reach for this Reebok Vector T-shirt too!

And to top it off, they come in a variety of fun colors! I ordered one Black color for a classic look and one Exotic Teal look for a fun, summer look! I really LOVE the Teal color!

FEATURES:

• V-neck short sleeve performance tee
• Uses Speedwick technology to manage moisture for dry comfort
• Relaxed fit allows for comfortable range of motion
• Feminine v-neckline gives a flattering silhouette
• Reebok® logo on left chest for signature style
• Fabric: 100% Polyester

So this summer, workout in style AND comfort with the Reebok Vector T-shirt from Dick's Sporting Goods!

Active Moms Need @RunLites Gloves & Giveaway!

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

One of the things I hated about winter was that I couldn't exercise outside at night because the sun set so early and I didn't have a way to see or have people see me.

Now I am almost (ALMOST!) looking forward to winter returning again because I have my new RunLites® gloves that allows me to see outside while I am running and it doesn't get in my way oor bother me while running!

This new fitness accessory just debuted earlier this year and is an innovative wearable technology solution that puts light where it’s needed most. RunLites gloves are perfect for runners, outdoor enthusiasts, children and moms & dads for everyday activities such as walking the dog or barbecuing outside at night.

For running, walking, cycling, hiking or hunting at night or for indoor tasks in low-light areas, RunLites gloves offer a solution that replaces clunky and uncomfortable head lamps, light-up vests, clip-on lights, and handheld lights that limit the use of your hands.

While there are nighttime safety solutions on the market that let the user be seen, RunLites patented gloves are a more convenient, unobtrusive innovation that allows users to actually see what is in front of them, not just be visible to others. Mary Tiffin, President and CEO of RunLites, invented and patented the gloves because as a runner and working mother of three, she could only find time to exercise at night and was frustrated by the inefficiency of flashlights and headlamps.

I really like the half glove that I received from RunLites because I can use them in summer and winter and my husband and I can both use them!

Whether I am struggling to carry boxes up to the attic or down to the basement in little to no light or working in my garden or yard late at night, there are so many daily activities where I could use some extra light, both to see better and be seen by others. And now I never have to reach for the flashlight! RunLites is the wearable solution that puts light where you need it!

These half gloves are lightweight and hands-free and projects light in front of me where I need it up to 15 feet. Plus, it lasts up to 12 hours continuously and has two brightness settings depending on how dark it is!

My favorite feature has to be the palm pocket because it is the perfect place to put my keys or music player while running!

These RunLites gloves really are innovative and are a great gift idea for a mother in your life that loves to run, work outdoors or just likes extra light! :)
