What’s in Your Fitness Closet

March 25, 2013 | fitness, running

Brian from the Pavement Runner challenged us to show the world what we have in our fitness closet. It could be running clothes, yoga pants, bike shorts, you name it. I happen to have workout clothes all over the place, so decided to film a vlog showing some of my collection.

fitness_closet

First, a couple of photos. I have an insane amount of RunningSkirts.com gear. (Being a sales rep for them will do that to you!) It started as just a little corner of my closet and kept growing and growing! (This was taken post run so excuse my red face!)

There you have it, just a sneak peek of my fitness clothes. It would have been a llloonnggg video had I pulled everything out! Be sure to head over to Pavement Runner’s Blog to see what other people have in their fitness closets.

QOTD: Do your fitness clothes take up more room in your closet/drawers than regular ones?

    Wow you sure do have A LOT of fitness clothes. The biggest bottom drawer in my chest of drawers is all for fitness clothes but there are some I definitely wear more often than others either for their comfort factor or depending on what activity I’m doing they suit me better.

    You have a ton of stuff! I’m definitely in need of a closet makeover. I don’t even know how much stuff I have b/c my closet is so disorganized that I “lose” things.

    If it were up to me my fitness clothes would take up 1/2 my closet..but I don’t think my boyfriend would appreciate that too much haha

    Right now my running gear takes up one whole drawer of my dresser. Now that I have a new apartment and bigger closet, I’m wondering if I should give some drawers for the closet and re-organize some stuff.

    I’ve actually pretty much take over another room in the house for all my running & yoga stuff! There’s a full dresser of clothes, but then I have all my “accessories” – yoga mats, foam rollers, water bottles, etc., it’s crazy!

  7. Heather (Where's the Beach) says

    Oh wow so you really do have yours in a closet properly, neatly hung. I might be jealous!

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 7:02 am

    Yes my running clothes take up way more space in my closet than my regular clothes do! I love buying running clothes…especially running skirts…and it’s a problem come Sunday morning when I need something to wear to church lol! Or on the days I substitute teach! Glad to know I’m not the only one out there with way too many running clothes! 🙂

  9. Lora @ Crazy Running Girl says

    March 25, 2013 at 7:31 am

  12. Katy says

    March 25, 2013 at 11:23 am

    I find myself NOT purchasing “normal” clothes because I could use that money to buy running clothes or new running shoes…I can completely relate to your closet!! And, love all the cute skirts…I may need to start stocking up, too…:)

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 7:01 am

  13. Meghan says

    March 25, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    You are so organized with it all! I totally need to devote more space to my entirely too huge collection. I love your huge collection of Running Skirts! I love running in them!

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 7:00 am

      I got tired of not being able to see all my skirts at once to decide what i wanted to wear!

  14. Karen :0) says

    March 25, 2013 at 11:44 am

  15. Michelle @ Running with Attitude says

    March 25, 2013 at 11:55 am

    Now that is a great collection of fitness clothes! Your closet is so neat – totally puts mine to shame!

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 7:00 am

  16. Kelly @ Leafy Not Beefy says

    March 25, 2013 at 12:59 pm

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:59 am

      yes yes I do. But funny thing is I don’t buy a lot of it!

  17. Crystal says

    March 25, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    I seem to only buy workout stuff these days…being out of work means I don’t need work clothes… :-/

    • Crystal says

      March 25, 2013 at 1:14 pm

  20. Abby @ BackAtSquareZero says

    March 25, 2013 at 6:20 pm

    Wow. I thought I had a lot of stuff. Mine doesn’t fit in my very small closet so it is all crammed in drawers. I love how organized yours is.

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:58 am

      only my skirts are organized, all my other tops are crammed into drawers!

  21. Holly @ Running & Baking oh my! says

    March 25, 2013 at 8:12 pm

    I love your closet filled with skirts! I have a ton of running clothes and need to find a bigger place to keep them. I see a lot of things I want to buy from reading all of these posts, I may be in trouble!

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:58 am

      I feel the same way!

  22. Melissa Love says

    March 25, 2013 at 8:17 pm

    haha I LOVE how many skirts you have! That’s awesome! I didn’t know you were a rep – I LOVE those skirts! I thought I had a lot of “Fitness” drawers in my dressers but so do you so I feel better 🙂

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:58 am

      Yeah I worked expos and sold to southern states traveling around etc. but I don’t do it anymore.

  23. Laure Simms says

    March 25, 2013 at 7:28 pm

    My running gear is taking over. Heather it is all your fault that I have bought five runningskirts in the last couple of months. I am addicted.

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:58 am

      LOL so sorry!

  24. Christine @ Love, Life, Surf says

    March 25, 2013 at 8:29 pm

    I’m so jealous of your running skirts collection too! I love that all of your workout clothes are neatly hanging in a closet. Mine are stuffed into 2 dresser drawers. Not a pretty sight!

    • Heather says

      March 26, 2013 at 6:57 am

      haha all the rest of mine are shoved in drawers!

  25. Katrina@Katrina Runs for Food says

    March 26, 2013 at 9:27 am

    I may need to add to my skirt collection. I have a ton of shorts and pants, but I’m lacking in skirts. Thanks for the details!

    • Heather says

      March 27, 2013 at 7:44 am

      yes! buy all the skirts!

  26. Amalia says

    March 26, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I LOVE the video. It was awesome to watch. I’m also going to go buy some running skirts – I’ve wanted to try them and seeing your closet gave me some inspiration to go grab a few!

    We are all going to end up with no regular clothes and wearing workout clothes everywhere… but what can you do!

    • Heather says

      March 27, 2013 at 7:42 am

      exactly! What can you do. lol

  27. AmyC says

    March 26, 2013 at 2:08 pm

    I love that you hang your fitness clothes! I need a bigger closet 😉

    • Heather says

      March 27, 2013 at 7:41 am

      just some of them. it would take up all the space if I hung them all!

Since turning forty, I’ve been all about simple changes that help me feel strong, healthy, and confident — inside and out. 

Adding Organixx Collagen to my coffee each morning has been one of the easiest ways to support my skin, hair, and joints while juggling busy mom life. It blends right in and makes me feel like I’m doing something good for myself every single day. 

Because for me, it’s not just about looking good — it’s about feeling my best, staying active, and showing up for the people and moments that matter most. 
Radiance starts from within, and @organixxco helps make it part of my everyday routine.

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
