Wish List

So I just signed up for my first Half Marathon Nov. 2, and I'm not gonna lie...
I'm TERRIFIED.
...but super PUMPED!
I keep telling myself I'm gonna sign up for one, and I never do so I'm pretty proud of myself for actually pulling the trigger this time!
I'm running the Snow Canyon Half in St. George, Utah.

Well I figured what better way to get marathon ready than by buying a cute new running outfit? 
haha.
(I mean, that, and maybe a little training.)
Thought I would share with you guys the things I found.

Soo I just found these sweet Nikes ON SALE here and pretty much 
revolved the rest of the outfit around them.


Then I found this UHHHMAZING lulu jacket here and I'm OBSESSED.
...but honestly how could you not be. It's perfection.
Figured it would be perfect for the starting line because I'm sure it will be pretty chilly.


Had to find a sports bra here to match the shoes, and I think this one will definitely do the job!
This will feel and look perfect under the jacket for when things start to heat up!

Lastly, dunno if you guys got the memo but camo is totally in this fall so when I saw these leggings by Nike it was love at first sight.
You can find them in about a zillion colors here.

So excited to get my race day outfit!
 I'm hoping it will motivate me and keep me on track with my training schedule.

What are some of your fall fitness favorites?
What do you guys do to get race day ready?

LOVE YOU!

1 cup Steel Cut or gluten free oats
1 cup cottage cheese
2 tsp Stevia or natural sweetener

Title Boxing Utah




Yesterday I FINALLY got to experience a "Power Hour" at Title Boxing Club Utah!
I have been in touch with the owner since before they opened last January trying to schedule a time that I could get in there and try it out so that I could feature them on the blog!!
I'm not gonna lie I was pretty intimidated at first, which is probably why it took me FOREVER to get my butt in there, but seriously this is the PERFECT workout for people of ALL ages and fitness levels!!


Each power hour is a combination of warm up drills, boxing, kickboxing, and toning exercises.
The warm up was an intense 15 minutes of cardio drills and kickboxing.
Then we moved to the punching bags.
Here we did eight 3 minute drills.
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!
When they said INTENSE full body workout, they weren't kidding!!!
Seriously, this was an AMAZING workout.
Not to mention the PERFECT stress reliever.
Haha nothing melts the stress away quite like upper cutting, jabbing and kicking the crap out of your worst enemy in the form of a 100lb bag!!
To finish off the class we did abs and more toning exercises with a medicine ball.
Oh, and did I mention...
you can burn up to 1200 calories in one hour!!


All of Title Boxing Club's trainers have professional boxing and muay thai experience.
My trainer for the day was Sara,
and seriously guys.. she kicked my trash!!!!!!!

I would recommend for ALL of my readers to find a Title Boxing Club location near you and
get into a class ASAP!!!!
...and for my Utah peeps they are conveniently located at:
7871 S. Highland Dr.
in Cottonwood Heights!
Tell them I sent you!!


Seriously SUCH a fun experience, I can't wait to get back into a class.

I think it would be such a fun activity to do with friends or even a date night!!

Check www.titleboxinutah.com  for more info!!

Love you!!
