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...

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since I've had the time to sit down and write a little. My babies are keeping me busy lately, but I wanted to give everyone an update on the 5K I ran back in February. If you read my previous post then you know it was The Runner Awakens Run that I participated in. If you didn't read the first post, click here . This was my first time using Level Up Virtual Runs and it won't be the last. The process to register was very simple and straightforward. There price point is also really great. As a stay-at-home mom I cannot afford a lot of races because they can get pricey. This race was $25 for the 5K and then increased by $5 for every distance up until the Half-Marathon. I ended up running with my local Moms Run This Town chapter on one of the Saturday runs, which kept me very motivated to keep going. It was also nice to be without the kids for a bit and with my friends. I wasn't really happy with my time, but I did just have another b...

I am so excited to share my new find with everyone! As most of you know, in the last year and a half or so I have gotten into running. Late last year I found out about running belts, which has made running solo much easy because I have a place to put my keys primarily as well as a few other things I carry. I was contacted by SLS3 recently to see about testing out their new duel pocket, water resistant running belt . I was finally able to head out over the last few days with this gorgeous weather to give the belt a test. The running belt comes in four colors: black, blue, lime, or purple. It has two pockets, which I've not seen on any other running belts I've looked at. They claim it's big enough to fit a large smartphone (i.e. iPhone 6+, Samsung Galaxy, etc.) plus other essential items like keys, cards, energy bars, and inhaler. It's also suppose to be comfortable and to stay in place while working out. It's also not suppose to bounce will running or ride up y...
