My Fitness Closet Part 2

April 5, 2013 | fitness, running, Running Skirts

Some of you may remember the recent post and vlog I did on my Fitness Closet. I only had time to do a quick overview of my fitness clothes, but decided I wanted to dive a little deeper and give some more details on my workout wear. I am aware I have a LOT of workout clothes, but oddly enough I didn’t pay for very many of them. Lots are race clothes, things I was given for review for the blog, etc. So, point being no I didn’t spend a fortune on all of these clothes and shoes!

SHOES: from top to bottom, left to right: Newtons, runDisney New Balance, Brooks trail, reebok flex, Mizuno, Asics, Saucony Virrata, Reebox flex, Asics, Zoot, Altra, Under Armour.

shoes

aaannddd I got these guys in the mail yesterday. The new Saucony Kinvara 4. Look for a review later!

I went upstairs and dumped all my dri fit shirts into a pile on the floor.

shirtpile

I sorted them into three piles. Short sleeve on the left, runDisney in the middle, tank top/sleeveless on the right. How sad my runDisney pile is almost as high as my regular short sleeve shirt pile?!?

shirts

PANTS: 3 pair, one pair not shown (in the wash) I don’t own a lot of pants b/c I run most of the time half naked (I kid) because it’s so darn hot here. Target C9, Russell athletic.

pants

CAPRIS: 4 pair shown, 2 not shown (in the wash) I like to take fitness classes in these and lift weights. Under Armour, Target C9, Addidas

capris

SHORTS: I totally just realized all my bottoms are BLACK! Well almost. I have 4 pair in the wash and one are blue and one brown. Brooks, Nike, Russell, Target C9.

shorts

SPORTS BRAS: Yay for color! Everything from Nike to Under Armour to Moving Comfort.

RUNNING SKIRT BRAS: missing 2, a pink and a white.

You probably saw this from my last post. All running skirt gear from capris, to dresses, running skirts, athletic skirts, strappy tanks, tank tops, long sleeves, and jackets. Missing a few items here in the wash as well.

    I think it’s awesome that your runDisney pile is as high as your regular gear! :0)

    LULUlemon because I am definitely a lululunatic! I did just order a few things from Running Skirts! Hoping they arrive soon 🙂

    Definitely Under Armour. I love how UA fits on me since shirts can be cut differently depending on the brand. I had some UA shorts too, but they were old and I decided to phase them out once I got my two Running Skirts.

    Girl I think we have almost the same amount of running skirts ha!!! Love that your runDisney pile of shirts is as high as your regular ones!!!

  7. Amy says

    April 5, 2013 at 7:11 am

    I am all about Target!

  8. Kristin @ A Mom on the Run says

    April 5, 2013 at 7:48 am

    Most of mine is from lululemon too. I have a handful of Old Navy and Nike gear thrown in. Actually I think all of my sports bras are from Old Navy!

  9. Kristy @KristyrunsKato says

    April 5, 2013 at 6:50 am

    Most of my fitness gear is from Lululemon. I am addicted to their clothing!

    I have a bunch of Old Navy and Target brand work out clothes. I really love ON because a lot of it is versatile. I’m a Moving Comfort sports bra fan. I’ve got to have a lot of support for my girls.

  11. Kim @ Confessions of a Domestic Goddess says

    April 5, 2013 at 8:59 am

    Your pants/shorts may be all black, but look at those colorful running skirts! I seem to lean towards Target, but that’s probably because there’s one down the street. 🙂

  12. Kristen @ The Smith Summary says

    April 5, 2013 at 8:08 am

    I think I have a majority of UA and Nike right now, but I love me some Target too!

  13. Danielle says

    April 5, 2013 at 9:51 am

    Lululemon and Nike are probably best represented in my closet, although I am really starting to like the few new Athleta pieces I’ve gotten!

  14. Lauren says

    April 5, 2013 at 10:08 am

    Your shoe collection is pretty much amazing!

    As for my closet, I think it’s a toss up between nike and adidas… I usually get what I can find on sale at TJ Maxx haha! Though I did just splurge on a Moving Comfort sports bra and I am so glad I did, I LOVE it!

  15. Zaneta says

    April 5, 2013 at 10:11 am

    LOVE this post! 🙂
    Almost ALL of my running/workout apparel is Nike!! I have a couple underamour, running skirts, and Target C9 but only a couple lol…

  16. Kat says

    April 5, 2013 at 10:12 am

    I’m really leaning towards making a blanket or something out of my race shirts!

    April 5, 2013 at 10:30 am

    I am a Brooks girls! My shoes and skirts come from Brooks. My running bras are from moving comfort. It took me awhile to get over paying that much for a bra, but once you run in a good bra–you get it!

    • Heather says

      April 8, 2013 at 1:00 pm

      yes moving comfort is great!

    I need to do a second post, I covet your shoe collection. It’s funny you have barely any pants and I have 1 pair of shorts…

  19. Kristin @ A Mom on the Run says

    April 5, 2013 at 2:04 pm

    I’m back with a question 🙂 I was looking at the Running Skirts website and I love the strappy tanks and bras. Do you usually wear one of their bras under the tank? Is it pretty supportive. I’m not huge up top, but thanks to nursing two babies, I definitely need some support.

    • LeeAnn says

      April 6, 2013 at 6:11 am

      I am a little bigger on top, but really want to try a Strappy Tank and have wondered this same question…

      • Heather says

        April 8, 2013 at 12:59 pm

        there are two kinds made of two different materiels. the super stretchy ones are looser so I wear another bra under but not the tigheter/less stretchy ones.

    I mostly have Nike. I have friends who work for the company so I get into the employee store on occasion. I stock up because it’s half off. My husband joked that when I was training in 2011 that I was sponsored by Nike. I wish!!! He might kill me if I had the amount you have. 😉 I’m impressed though. And no, it is not sad about your amount of runDisney shirts; I’m jealous!

    I’m totally jealous of your runDisney collection! Hopefully I will have that one day too! I’m a big fan of the C9/champion stuff at Target. I love the compression capris there and their tech shirts but I love my Nike tanks, shorts, and sport bras! I just invested in a couple sparkle skirts and running skirts so those are new favorites!

  23. Haley says

    April 5, 2013 at 9:42 pm

    You crack me up with your collection. I can’t say that I’m envious. I think we have to make a collection all our own. I definitely want to make a quilt one day out of some of my tech shirts. I’ve donated some shoes over the course of a few Tough Mudder s. Otherwise, I have drawers full of gear. Mostly Nike and Lululemon.

  24. Erin @RunandLaughThruLife says

    April 8, 2013 at 12:36 pm

    I am seriously jealous of your shoe collection… makes me want to go get a new pair of shoes asap.

  25. Crystal says

    Runningskirts, lululemon, and sparkleskirts, with some c9 and tekgear in the mix!

5th grade. ✏️ 🍎 📚 Today she left eleme 5th grade. ✏️ 🍎 📚 

Today she left elementary school to change classes all by herself, do homework on a Chromebook, and basically be a grown up at school. 😭

How did we get here? She was just lifting her arms up saying “mommy, hold you!” And it felt like yesterday. It’s bittersweet watching her grow, but I know she is going to do amazing things. She’s got a special fire inside of her that can’t be taught, and I know it will take her far in life.

Chase your dreams baby girl. We will always be right here cheering you on. 🩷 @theprincessek

Summer photo dump ☀️ Emma Kate starts school Summer photo dump ☀️ 

Emma Kate starts school tomorrow, so I guess summer is officially over. 😭 It’s bittersweet. I’m excited to be back into a routine and fall is my favorite, but I will miss lazy mornings and traveling on a whim and not having to help with homework. 😵‍💫

Here is a carousel of some of my favorite moments. From basketball tournaments to travels down to south Florida and back, Atlanta, Asheville, Tuscaloosa, Pigeon Forge, and all the way to Disneyland, and my 40th birthday plus 4th of July, tiny house camping and Opryland for Bobby’s birthday, we packed a lot into the past 2.5 months. 

I never want to forget these special moments with my little family. Memories to last a lifetime that I thank God for. 🩷

Have your kids started school yet?

BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 I drove the same Toyota 4Ru BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 

I drove the same Toyota 4Runner for 14 1/2 years. Last October, we got a good deal on a Highlander platinum with 10,000 miles on it from @foxtoyota. 

The only problem is, I wanted the Grand Highlander platinum, because it has way more cargo room, legroom, and some other features that the regular Highlander doesn’t have. I thought that’s what we were getting, but it wasn’t available and we ended up with the regular Highlander, which don’t get me wrong, I was very grateful for after driving the same car for so long.

However, as the months went on, the differences were very noticeable, especially with how much we travel and the lack of space. Without me knowing, Bobby had been doing research and working with the wonderful folks at Fox, and was able to find us a brand new Grand Highlander platinum. 

He had hoped it would arrive for my birthday, but it was a couple weeks late, which was totally worth it. He’s usually really bad at surprising me (my 40th birthday party a couple weeks ago was supposed to be a surprise, but I found out.) so I was truly in shock and speechless when I came home and this new car, which we named Ruby, was in the garage!

@bobbymontg may not be the most romantic guy, but he shows his love in ways that he knows I appreciate. Best birthday gift ever! 🩷

While grabbing a few things at Walgreens, I picked up a Kohl’s gift card and turned it into the cutest teacher gift — a mason jar wrapped in ribbon, full of pencils with a tag that says “This year is going to be on point.” 🎯 

It’s simple, thoughtful, and super practical — because who doesn’t love a gift they can actually use? 

Walgreens makes it so easy to grab @incommpayments gift cards for everyone on your back-to-school list — from teachers to even yourself (because let’s be real, moms need a win too 😉).
