Aspaeris Shorts Giveaway!

A few week back I got my very own Aspaeris pivot shorts in the mail....just in time to enjoy a month free from running thanks to a foot injury. Great timing, right? Originally I thought I would tuck the bad boys away for a while and pull them back out when I started running again.

If I'm honest, I put these shorts on the first time just because I needed clean shorts for spinning. Plus, I figured the longer length would help me to not start a fire thanks to my inner thighs rubbing together. Once I started wearing them for that, I realized how comfortable they were.

Putting them on might require sumo squats, but once they're on? Worth the gymnastics routine it takes to squeeze you in:



I won't tell you how often I wear these shorts in a week. Because I don't do laundry that often, and you guys might get suspicious. I will say that they often come in the shower with me and hang up to dry afterwards, so I'm not completely nasty. 

Now that I have had a few runs again post-injury, I'm impressed with more than just their looks and comfort. They are designed to help athletes avoid ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injuries. ACL injuries are often caused by quick, lateral movements. Wearing them during a run really does feel different - almost as if your legs are aligned properly while running. Although they are tight, they still give you complete range of motion. That being said, here are some things to keep in mind that I noticed about the pivot shorts:



-Sausage casings. I kid- kinda. They are tight, so be prepared for that. If you aren't comfortable showing your booty to the world, toss a pair of tempo shorts on top. 

-No seriously, you have to wrangle them on. Don't do this in front of your significant other if you ever want them to think you look sexy ever again. It's a lot of jumping around while trying to give yourself what looks like a wedgie. H-O-T. 

-Choose a Size Up: The sizing chart was helpful for me in picking out the right size, but I also went the larger of two sizes. My waist measurements were a size XS, but my hips are a medium. (Don't get me started.) So I went with a medium, and that fits perfectly. I'm definitely glad I didn't go any smaller. 

-Surprising Lack of Muffin Top: This was a special bonus for me. Although they are tight -did I mention that yet?- they offer a really comfortable waistband that's very flattering. 

So, in review: they're tight. They're awesome. You should get a pair. 



Ready to win your own? Here's how:

+1: Like Aspaeris on Facebook and let them know I sent you.
+1: Like Gourmet Runner on Facebook

Note: I won these shorts from Emily, so I wonder if I have to deal with all the disclaimer gibberish? Either way, they were free. BUT- as always, opinions are entirely my own!

    I learned that Aspaeris shorts were developed because so many women were tearing their ACLs each year!

    You are too cute! I wear co pressing socks for recovery and have often wondered about compression shorts or tights for recovery. My hamstrings and glutes are starting to feel ignored! (and that's often what is most sore post long run!)

Race the Bar 5k Recap (AKA: A Personal Worst!)

Do you remember a few weeks back, when I was all braggy about running in Florida in February/March? Sunny mornings around a lake with a light breeze off the water have turned, cruelly, into humid stretches of time where I am humbly reminded of my own limitations. You guys, I see these gazelle-like creatures, men and women alike, who prance on my running route with compression socks, a soft glow of perspiration at their brow. It's beautiful. It's also a harsh reminder that I am not them. I am currently running in the thinnest, smallest items of clothing I can without offending anyone (shirt stays on, people). I dare not step outside without some awful visor or wide-brimmed hat. When I hop in the shower after a run, my face is a deep crimson that causes my husband to voice his concern for my general well-being. Have I mentioned this is what happens after my easy runs, with a few walk breaks thrown in? Yeah. It's humbling. Now, I'm not complaining. It's beautiful

Brace Yourselves: Cuteness is Coming

One of the hardest things about moving, for me, was wondering how the cats would adjust each time. Although our cats are super travelers at this stage, I feel really guilty every time we have to pack them up and force them onto a plane. I remember my grandma telling me years ago that when she moved with a cat, they put butter on their paws. That way, the cats spent the first day in a new house licking their paws to get them clean, and that was enough time to lose the "smell" of the old house. I love that story, and I wish the same principle applied to longer moves. Anyway, that's a super long intro to say that for the fellow cat ladies out there, our three fur babies are insanely happy in this jungle gym of a home here in Florida. It's warm, there are plenty of sunny spots to curl up a take a nap, and they have lots of room to spread out. Despite the space, of course, they still usually want to take a nap on my head at night. Obviously. They also love climbing on ou

Running Jewelry Giveaway from The Run Home!

Running has a tendency at times to make me feel just a little less feminine that I might like. The curves might disappear just a little (well...the top ones at least. Bottom ones are still out in full force) and I spend more time fiddling with my Garmin than I do putting on make-up. So I love when I can show my interest in running with a beautiful, feminine piece of jewelry. I recently received two necklaces from the great people at The Run Home.   They have an Etsy store full of inspirational necklaces, bracelets and more for athletes. I received this beautiful necklace in the mail from them: A cute running shoe, heart, and a hand-stamped 26.2 charm. In all honesty, I don't think I'll wear this until I have finished the marathon in November. Kind of like wearing a race shirt before you completed the race! But it will make the perfect reward and I can't wait to wear it with pride. The Run Home sent everything to me perfectly packaged--like it was a gift. I loved that:
