However, many times we have our own oops moment where we did some not so good things.
This can directly impact our fitness and can take us downward spiral.
A fitness log, not only serves as a motivation but also will let us forgive ourselves when those slip-ups occur.
A wonderful gift for someone you care about…
The best is, it will not cost you more than $20…
Now, that’s a win-win…

Plus, you will be the cause that helped them to stick to their runs on one of those days when they wanted to give up.
Now that is what I call a true supporter. 🙂
A massage roller is a perfect solution for a runner’s sore and tight muscles.

Many runners are dog moms and dog dads…
They would love to take their dogs for a run with them.
But the problem is, they have to hold the leash in the hand while running.
If the dog suddenly increases its speed they will not have sufficient control to tackle it.
Also, this may result in a lot of injuries and unfortunate accidents.
So, they typically leave their dog-child at home and go out for a run.
But not anymore. With this present from yours, they will be able to take their dogs for a run completely hands-free.

Running at night can get dangerous…
The visibility is low and a runner may trip and fall…
