Bras Brunch and Run Recap

Spring 2020 – Bra and Brunch Recap We kick off the first Saturday of Women’s Month with me for my  4th #brasandbrunch with @rei and @brooksrunning!  This year, you all were  in for a treat as attendees were able to get their first hands on the new Brooks Run Dare collection and I personally took everyone on an easy run/jog on a beautiful trial. These RunBras are created for just us runners in mind. I’ve got various sizes and includes the larger cup sizes. REI took care of the food in making sure we had something for our tummies and setup this super cute outdoor section so we could truly experience and enjoy nature. I shared the importance of the basics and how with running it is important to know your sports bras and running shoes are the foundations for success. Everyone was able to try on the new Glycerine shoes as well as test out the bras.  Checkout the photos below and if you missed it, I have tons of upcoming events, sports bra guide and much more on the site.

I will be focusing on running related, but the lives are open to anyone (non-runners, walkers or joggers are welcomed!) Weight Loss & Running  Last year, this was me. This was just me in August struggling through a race I waited years to do. It sucked being too slow and frankly was embarrassed. My goal was never to lose weight actually but training for a run. The by-product was the weight-loss, but also some fears, depression, old goals and much more were shredded as well. In my first FB session, I will be chatting about my journey, My weight loss journey and how running helped What I eat in a day for weight loss Essential nutrition & supplements for weight loss Hydration & Working Out Now that you have learned about my weight loss, I couldn’t wait to teach about the importance of hydration.
