Bread Crumbs

I've been running more this year then any other time in my life and I have been on the lookout for great, affordable gear. Running socks are something I've been having trouble finding. I either find ones I like, but not in my price point or I find ones that are in my price point and they are terrible. Enter these Neon Running socks by SLS3. I've worn these a handful of times when running and I have to say I am really impressed. So here is what I like about them: They are really comfortable. Light-weight, which is great for hot summer runs. They fit as described. I love the bright neon colors. Some things I don't like: The ankle part of the sock is tighter then I would like. They are a bit pricey then I would like. I really do not have anything negative to say about them. The quality has held up really well with wearing and washing them. I think the only thing that could be a problem is that because they are light-weight, you would need heavier...

It's that time again! I am getting ready for another 5K next weekend and I will be gearing up for another one shortly after that with Level Up Virtual Runs. If you haven't heard about Level Up Virtual Runs click here . April's virtual run is The Incredible virtual run. You can choose a 5K, 10K, or half-marathon! The Incredibles, for those that don't have children, are a family of undercover Superhero's who are living in the suburbs and are forced into saving the world. The medal for this race is really cool and features the family of superheros! Registration is currently open and ends on April 15th. Level Up Virtual Runs is offering my readers a 10% off discount.

The last few weeks have been really great for me and the blog! Yet again, I am really excited to share about this great company. Level Up Virtual Runs was created by two brothers who love running as well as the cool metals and swag that comes along with races :) They not only wanted to create an alternative way for runners to run races, but also give back to schools who may not be able to afford there sport programs.  First off, for those that do not know what a virtual race is, lets start there. A virtual race is a race you can ran anywhere at anytime. You can run it outside, inside, you can walk it, and even run it while running another race. You can run the race at your own pace as well. Another great aspect of the virtual race is that anyone can participate. I am really excited for the next race, which runs from February 15th to the 29th because it's Star Wars related!! Check out this beautiful metal that features BB-8 from the new Stars Wars movie The Force Awakens....
