<span class="s1">Perfection is so overrated. </span></div>
<div class="p6">
<span class="s1">Perfect or Perfection has become a word used incorrectly to describe people, places, scenarios and things. We have no standards by which to accurately measure perfection, except our own experiences, preferences and lifestyle. In our life, it is the imperfections which make us unique, fun, different, creative and adventurous. We learn from these imperfect lessons about ourselves and the world we live in. </span></div>

SweetSpotSkirtshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08960153299922507401noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4979241540891614592.post-83909325075994844292016-09-05T10:47:00.003-07:002016-09-05T23:44:35.221-07:00Clarity From Webster?<div class="p1" style="text-align: center;">
<b>Perfection is "the condition, state, or quality of being free or </b></div>
<div class="p1" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="s1"><b>as free as possible from all flaws or defects."</b></span></div>
<div class="p2" style="text-align: center;">
<span class="s1"></span><br></div>
<div class="p3">
<span class="s1">What an oxymoron. Perfection and being free? Striving to be the perfect mother, the perfect wife, the perfect partner, the perfect friend is anything but freeing. I am all for becoming the best YOU you can be, without feeling like perfection is the final destination. </span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span class="s1"></span><br></div>
<div class="p3">
<span class="s1">To FREE yourself is to actively "release from captivity, confinement, or slavery.” Seriously, how captive or confined does the journey to perfection keep you? One more pound, one more raise, one more award. How about this? Let’s release from captivity our inner beauty, our funny sense of humor, and our complete love of life? Let’s open the door of confinement and let the beautiful woman wander with nothing but joy and love for herself.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span class="s1"></span><br></div>
<div class="p3">
<span class="s1">Thank you Webster for this reminder, to FREE ourselves is to ”release from physical obstruction, restraint, or entanglement.” The plight of perfection can shackle you to a point that renders you immovable and frozen. As we live our very full lives, pushing to create that next best version of ourselves we can hit a point where fear and insecurities rule our world. Slow down, breathe, and remember your platoon of warrior women that will help you find again your beautiful wonderful self.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span class="s1"></span><br></div>
<div class="p3">
<span class="s1">Lastly, to FREE yourself is to ”remove something undesirable or restrictive from.” The month of September is about releasing the pressure of perfection. It is about loving your flaws and defects and understanding that you are a beautiful and loved person. Don’t underestimate the power of wander. <b>Go wander</b> in the hills, the shopping mall, or the beach. Your imperfect self is perfection enough. </span></div>

<br />
I have always tried to wear my own products, and it makes for a pretty cool wardrobe. We started with the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts" target="_blank">Classic skirts</a>. I wore them diligently, as many days as I could. In the early years, I was still a full time real estate agent, and I even wore a pirate skirt to the closing of a $500,000 house! At the end of the meeting, my clients looked over and chuckled, "Did you really just close a half million dollar house in a pirate skirt?" Why, Yes I did! :-)<br />
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-foFVQl85lYk/Vx2aPntFINI/AAAAAAAABz4/KVnP7O6tzPE8WMhsnIYiqWjS5WTRLvpQQCLcB/s1600/sss%2BVictory.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-foFVQl85lYk/Vx2aPntFINI/AAAAAAAABz4/KVnP7O6tzPE8WMhsnIYiqWjS5WTRLvpQQCLcB/s200/sss%2BVictory.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
We added the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/fast-n-flirty-running-skirts" target="_blank">Fast 'N Flirty technical running skirt</a> and it's a great compliment to the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts" target="_blank">Classic</a>. I wear it for all the same things, plus it's great for longer runs and then worn around town and for errands.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NHagiPwvbts/Vx2aPl-T-QI/AAAAAAAABz0/avm6VXFFBe8fxOcV4uhvAT1rYSpRJHR-ACLcB/s1600/SSS%2BAVM_3645crop_large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NHagiPwvbts/Vx2aPl-T-QI/AAAAAAAABz0/avm6VXFFBe8fxOcV4uhvAT1rYSpRJHR-ACLcB/s320/SSS%2BAVM_3645crop_large.jpg" width="132" /></a>The selection of <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/panties-sss-tights" target="_blank">functional shorts and leggings</a> on the market was abominable. All of the shorts would ride up and the leggings never quite fit properly. So, we went to town to solve that problem, and even added a <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/the-panties-tights-leggings" target="_blank">phone pocket</a> for convenience. (I must be honest, in my mind the phone pocket was originally for two golf balls and a tee.) The pocket is situated on your left leg, since when you swing your right leg pulls all the movement and power.<br />
<br />
When runners ask me why we don't do pockets on both sides, I just tell them because it's for golfers. I also think that it could make us look like oompa loompas, if both pockets are filled with the goo and goodies that runners like to carry. It may also effect the fit and wearability. <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/panties-sss-tights" target="_blank">Breathable, functional and convenient pocketed shorties, capri's and tights</a> are daily wear for me now with my <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/fast-n-flirty-running-skirts" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Skirts</a>.<br />

Recently, we purchased a <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/collections/tees" target="_blank">NW t-shirt company</a><span id="goog_951840103"></span><span id="goog_951840104"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a>. When we ordered the first run of<a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/" target="_blank"> t-shirts</a>, I went along to make sure they also fit a slightly larger frame and that they would be appropriate for a 51 year old. The last thing I want to wear a shirt that's designed for an Abercrombie and Fitch teeny bopper. The first round of shirts are printed and came out beautifully! I usually wear an XL, so according to our online description, I grabbed a size up, XXL. The<a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/collections/tees" target="_blank"> t-shirt</a> looks great, it's cut well and the soft material is pliable and can be stretched in places that may need a little extra room.<br />
<br />
Coco Channel, in her book about her career, admitted that at one point she vowed to only wear her own creations. <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Skirts</a> is no where near that haute couture category, and as a designer I pale in comparison. However, in a effort to follow in the footsteps of the greats, I vowed to only wear <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">my creations or products</a>. Since we have never done <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/collections/tees" target="_blank">tops</a> before, I'm very excited to have a line of <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/collections/tees" target="_blank">active, fun and inspirational t-shirts</a> that I can wear daily with my <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">skirts</a>!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9GVq9LRiIS4/Vx2dr8znJpI/AAAAAAAAB0U/J1aVlV8PR6ANSC13igtjaS3o3sYbZ2ZNgCLcB/s1600/Suck%2Bit%2BUp.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9GVq9LRiIS4/Vx2dr8znJpI/AAAAAAAAB0U/J1aVlV8PR6ANSC13igtjaS3o3sYbZ2ZNgCLcB/s320/Suck%2Bit%2BUp.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
It has been years since I've worn <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/" target="_blank">t-shirts</a>. When I put on one of our shirts, I looked at my reflection and was horrified to see that my posture was crumpled over! My shoulders were hunched forward and my gut crumpled, which caused the fat to gather and roll over my waistband. I immediately stood straighter, and as soon as I corrected my posture - throwing my shoulders back, straightening my back and pulling my head up - there was no fat, no bulges and I looked strong and confident! Thinking back to my style, I have always worn tops that covered body parts and my stomach, and added a vest to disguise "the girls". That had allowed me to slump into this horrible posture! Good posture = long sleek lines of a 51 year old, 175lb woman, who is able to complete a 13.1, half century bike ride, a 10 mile hike... Bad Posture = crumpled old woman, whose fat billows out beneath the pressure of ribcage, breasts and shoulders piled upon one another. I'm opting for Good Posture!<br />
<br />
Here is what the internet says (and really, we all intuitively know) about posture:<br />
When you practice correct posture, your body is in alignment with itself. This can alleviate common problems such as back or neck pain, headaches, and fatigue. Being in good general health and standing (or sitting) tall will also boost your bearing and self confidence. Good posture is especially important as we grow older - for confidence and to help us to move with authority and strength.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking that we should sell the <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/" target="_blank">shirts</a> as posture correctors! (Plus the <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/collections/tees" target="_blank">sayings are so inspirational</a>!) The <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/" target="_blank">shirts</a> fit just snug enough to keep you aware and upright, while being loose enough to accentuate your womanly curves. Check out our T-shirts and you can improve your posture without buying a <a href="http://www.runprettyfar.com/" target="_blank">t-shirt company</a>!<br />

Because of the reversibility of the skirt, we choose a "solid" color/tone on one side and a bright, noticeable pattern on the other. This gives the wearer flexibility over the years to blend this skirt with fashions and colors as they change. Our colors will fade slightly over time, but for the most part remain quite vivid and crisp with proper washing (wash cold, hang dry). Cotton is the oldest fabric that is completely breathable, - "good ol' cotton”. The Classic skirt fits over your favorite pair of tights, shorts or leggings which should wick the moisture away from your skin. Then the cotton will breathe away the moisture. In the picture above you can see three of our customers enjoying their skirts and demonstrating how cute they are on everyone. #noprofessionalphotographerneeded</span></div>

<span class="s1">Our company has been in business for 6 years and the skirts we have from the start are still beautiful and colorful. And, l</span>et’s face it, very few women stay one size their entire life. Because of our multi-size design, <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/the-skirt" target="_blank">each skirt fits an array of sizes</a>, our skirts continue to ‘cover’ for many years through size fluctuations sizes. <br />

<span class="s1">Our <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/the-panties-tights-leggings" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Panties</a> are thigh-length performance exercise shorts that are guaranteed to stay put! </span>Our shorts won't ride up! No more pulling at your leg like some poorly designed styles as they creep up and up. Our fabric is made from breathable wicking material, and are basically bomb proof. I have slid down rocks on them with barely a scratch. This fabric was also chosen because of it’s compression attribute. We call it cellulite management. :-)<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">Our line of <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/the-panties-tights-leggings" target="_blank">Calf and Ankle-length Tights</a> are of the same fabric as the Panties. Our goal has been to make a super soft and comfy pair of tights that will stand the test of time when it comes to fit and function. Plus, our unique cell phone pocket on the left thigh is great for phones and for golfers extra tees and balls. Bonus: Our diabetic customers love the pocket for their insulin pumps. </span></div>

<span class="s1">The <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/technical-running-skirt" target="_blank">Fast N Flirty™</a> ultra lightweight technical running skirt was created to make a 5’ 9” 180 pound woman feel flirty and fast. Ok, that woman is me. Every lycra skirt I put on in the past to hide my lycra tights made me look matronly. Just because I'm a size 14 doesn’t mean a skirt has to come to my knees. I also didn’t like the “stuff sausage” look or feel. (Does anyone?!) If you choose to wear something over your workout pants, it should accentuate your features not make them look worse. </span></div>

<span class="s1">With all that in mind we created the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/technical-running-skirt" target="_blank">Fast N Flirty</a> skirt. The scalloped bottom, combined with an elastic gather in the back of the waistband, allows the skirt to cascade over your bum and float gracefully with every step. And fact that each skirt fits a range of sizes allows this skirt to be worn through any weight fluctuations (up or down). The <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/pages/technical-running-skirt" target="_blank">colors of these skirts</a> are bright and cheery to keep you safe and seen out on the roads and trails. We did come out with a black version of this skirt…. well, everyone needs that “little black athletic skirt” in their collection - let’s just hope you wear it with a really bright top to keep you safe and seen. </span><br />

Last Wednesday, our truck was loaded and the Airstream was stocked - we were ready for an adventure. "AirSSS" is our "home away from home" when traveling for events in other states. Have you seen it? It's decked out with photos and logos of our <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Skirts</a>! We get lots of looks and have some fun comments and conversations when we stop to fill the tank or grab snacks!<br />
<br />
We had gorgeous weather and beautiful sights on our first day's drive south. We drove 8 hours south, through Oregon and across the Siskiyous. We had beautiful, sunny weather all the way. We enjoyed mountains, trees in bloom, rivers, rolling hills... spectacular!<br />

Sightseeing would have to wait, since it was time to setup for the <a href="http://www.runrocknroll.com/san-francisco/" target="_blank">Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon San Francisco</a> packet pickup. We set up in now time and took a break for lunch before the expo opened at 3pm. Sitting behind the booth, we felt like performers "back stage" before the curtain goes up.<br />

We had a great afternoon meeting RnR runners and helping them to discover the perfect skirts, shorts and capri tights for them. Tasha (below) loved the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/products/fast-n-flirty-k8k" target="_blank">Fast 'N Flirty K8K</a> plus <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/products/plum-tangle-athletic-skirt" target="_blank">Plum Tangle</a>, <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/products/girlie-swirly-red-athletic-skirt" target="_blank">Girlie Swirly Gearhead</a>...<br />

We met so many fun, interesting, friendly people. Many from other states, but also come from the area. George and Maria were so helpful to give us suggestions for places to go in Napa when we went there next. Thanks George and Maria!<br />

We always love the littlest "Sweeties" and it makes us smile to see their excitement at wearing their first skirt from our Kids Line. This young lady thought she was quite the thing in her new <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/products/fast-n-flirty-tweener-running-skirt" target="_blank">Tweener Sailfish Fast 'N Flirty</a> skirt - after trying it she didn't want to take it off!<br />

<b>Happy 4th Birthday to our Flagship Store! Opened March 1, 2012. </b><br />

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">In 2012, I was busy jetting between my wonderful home seamers,</span><span class="s2"> gathering skirts and putting them in envelopes to send to our initial customers. And then, with all that running around, we missed an order! I was mad. I hate letting customers down, so I began the hunt for one central location where we could do business, sew our skirts and where, if a customer walked into the store, they could buy their skirt in person. Thanks to many miracles and a great landlord, we found a new home at 6th and Main. in the revitalized Downtown Vancouver. I called all my seamers into the store and asked who wanted to work in the new space. Mary and Dianna both thought it sounded fun and joined in as the first employees at the Flagship store! </span><br />
<br />
Around the same time, my dear grandfather passed away, and I received $895 from his estate. I used it to buy interior paint and a few items from IKEA to "beautify" then new space, and BOOM we opened for business! With a heartfelt dedication to my sweet grandfather, we began to sew in our brand new store and we waited for people to come inside. If you build it, they will come...?!<br />
<span class="s2"><br /></span>
<span class="s2">Over the last four exciting years, we have learned and grown every day. Today, our Flagship store provides a place where women come to shop. and to tour and enjoy our warm and cozy space. We have been a "downtown destination" from the beginning. </span>Early on, we brought in a bright pink couch and two chairs to use up the huge amount of space in our store and made a "gathering space".<br />
<br /></div>

<br />
Our heat source and brick wall added warmth and character to this enchanting space. We filled the walls with local artists' works in hopes of bringing in shoppers for the First Friday Art Walk. It worked, and it was so much fun! We highlighted some really amazing and talented local painters, photographers and other artists.<br />

<span class="s2">Our building was green and it was the prior home of the Sixth Street Gallery. With enough money for a few gallons of Grey recycled paint ($55), we began to transform the green, helping the building blend in with the surroundings. (The green and purple were very eye catching, but didn't match the playful tone of our skirts.) The grey became a great backdrop for our colorful skirts and designs.</span><br />

These were our rental bikes. They filled out our space, and we helped bring touring bikes to the Downtown area - so fun! Eventually, the bikes were pushed out to male more room for skirts! <br />

My chiropractor moved to a new space just as we were moving in and gave us this beautiful "hand me down" cash wrap. It took up a good deal of room and gave the space some depth. <br />

At <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Skirts</a>, in addition to making flirty, functional skirts for every body, we love when we can support important causes! We feel lucky that we get to do this in part by participating in events and expos across the country - and across the Pacific Ocean, as we did at last weekend's Great Aloha Run in Hawaii.<br />
<br />
One wonderful aspect of participating in events like GAR is that they benefit one or more charities or non-profit organizations. A majority of events these days have a designated beneficiary, and some events have multiple local and national non-profit organizations which directly benefit from involvement with the events!<br />
<br />
The KP Great Aloha Run, as noted in their promotional video, was "magical and <b>more than a run</b>". Each year, this race benefits multiple local charities and vital programs. The event has given back an impressive $10.9 million to the community over the years! That's fantastic!<br />
<br />
Other events on our <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">2016 schedule</a> which contribute to non-profit organizations include:<br />
Bloomsday Run in Spokane, which benefits it's Official Charity, the Salvation Army<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dPwTBU7oJn0/VsPAugVEGlI/AAAAAAAABvw/dl9mm14ys_Q/s1600/Girlfriends%2Bladies%2Band%2Bgirl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dPwTBU7oJn0/VsPAugVEGlI/AAAAAAAABvw/dl9mm14ys_Q/s320/Girlfriends%2Bladies%2Band%2Bgirl.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>
Ragbrai, a 7-day bike ride across Iowa, which contributes to approximately 20 charities each year and donates funds to each of the race's host towns for local programs. (This July, <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot® Skirts</a> will not only be in the expo at Ragbrai, we'll have our own team riding the course!)<br />
<br />
Susan G Komen Race for the Cure in Portland, Oregon and Girlfriends Run for a Cure in Vancouver, Washington are a couple of events that are closer to home. Both of these annual events have raised and donated amazing amounts of funding over the years for research, support and programs for fighting breast cancer and supporting survivors.<br />
<br />
And you know that, just by participating, you also support the charities that benefit from the races. Way to go! It's a great way to do something good for yourself and your own health, while doing something good for your community and for important organizations.<br />
<br />
So, as we continue through the year, watch for which events give back to organizations and consider doing extra events that support your favorite causes. And if they're on our Upcoming Events schedule, be sure to stop by and see us in the expos.<br />
<br />
We can't wait to see you at the events this year!<br />

It's also the American Heart Association's Heart Month and at <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Sweet Spot® Skirts</span></a> we are all about healthy hearts! Our focus all month is on how we can support and inspire women - and our kids, nieces/nephews and the special young people in our lives - to make the smart choices that lead to a healthier heart and a healthier life!! <br /><br />There are many ways to keep your own heart in top form: eating well, being active and moving more, spending time with family and friends, laughing together, and feeling good about our bodies all have strong benefits to our heart health. Our Sweet Spot® Skirts family knows that wearing a <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts" target="_blank">cute skirt</a> while out for a walk or run, biking, running errands, or touring a new city can add to the joy of life and joy is great for your heart! And feeling flirty for Valentine's Day is good, too!</div>

For extra inspiration during Heart Month, check out this sweet video we found on the American Heart Association website about one mom, Michaela's, conscious choices about what she makes for her three kids. As she says in the video, if moms (and aunties, special friends, neighbors...) spread the word about eating healthy and the benefits from it, and lead by example, we will have a positive impact on the next generation! "Moms standing together can be a strong force." </div>

In our corner of the world, moms like Sunná (below) lead by example and her daughter Avery learns from her. If you missed our post on Tuesday, February 2nd, you can read about Sunná and Avery <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.blogspot.com/2016/02/live-longer-with-healthy-heart.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. They run together and encourage each other to be healthy. Sunna shares how she inspired Avery to start running and Avery tells what she thinks is special about her mom. They recently participated in the Worst Day of the Year run. They did it together and now they have matching beanies and penguin medals to commemorate another event they've shared!

<div class="Body">
February is Heart Month. One of the best ways to live longer is
to keep your heart healthy. We love supporting women in their dedication to
being active and feeling good about how they look with our athletic clothing
line. Sometimes a new outfit is the extra boost that gets you to your next run
or walk, spin class, mountain hike, bike ride or stroll along the beach.</div>

Our focus this month is on Sunná and Avery, a mom and daughter team who help each other to be heart healthy, and with every step they create
memories that will last a lifetime.</div>
<div class="Body">
<br />
Sunná started her journey to running when she walked a
marathon and a half. She met up with other girlfriends and they started to
run/walk, and then worked up to running. Now she feels her heart rate elevates
faster and it feels better to her to run. Sunná says running saved her life in
many ways, by giving her clarity and focus, long-lasting friendships, and the
ability to get through a lot of pain and hardship in a difficult time. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="Body">
Sunná was thrilled when Avery wanted to start running with her.
Avery sets goals and Sunná helps her to meet them. When Sweet Spot Skirts asked
Avery what was the best thing about running with her mom, she said her mom
keeps her going when she wants to stop, and when Avery’s having a hard time her
mom finds ways to help her get through it. Avery says it has helped to have her
mom to run with because it “makes you go faster if you run with someone”. And
when asked how many of Avery’s friends run with their mom, she answered “NONE
my mom is pretty special”. Avery also joined the cross country team and enjoys training with her friends while getting better at running. Avery’s next goal is to run a 5k in 25 minutes.<o:p></o:p></div>

She stood on the top of the podium to be recognized, and both mother and daughter felt the pride of a hard-earned accomplishment. The bonus was getting to enjoy the moment together.</div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sunná’s advice to other mothers who hope to get their daughters
involved in running is to lead by example – if you daughter sees you doing
something that makes you happy, she may follow in your footsteps – literally.
Also, keep asking if they want to join you on a run, with no pressure just
encouragement.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Next up for Sunná and
Avery is the Worst Day of the Year Run – if they can run on the Worst Day, they
can run anytime - together!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; line-height: 107%;">The women in
my family have been sewing since approximately the beginning of time! There is
a good possibility that the majority of them were born with either a pair of
scissors or a needle and thread in their hands. It’s in my blood and I honestly
don’t think there was much chance of me avoiding the urge to cut, stitch and
create wonderful things!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; line-height: 107%;">My
great-grandma made hand sewn quilts, using old warn out clothes to complete her
designs; she made my grandma’s wedding dress, and she could mend and darn
clothing beautifully. My grandmother made clothes for her four kids. My mom
sewed her own wedding dress and the dresses for her bridesmaids, and I grew up
watching her make clothes for my brothers and me, outfits for our dolls and
stuffed animals, and gifts for family
and friends. I got my first (pretend) sewing machine when I was about
five or six years old; a yellow plastic, battery powered My Little Pony number
that I spent hours playing with. When I was twelve, I finally got to use my
mom’s “real” sewing machine! I made an apron for my grandmother’s birthday; it
had purple pansies on it with gold details. I was so proud of myself! But
sitting there that day, working so hard to make that gift for my grandma, I
never imagined that someday I would be sewing for a living!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; line-height: 107%;">Fast
forwarding a few more years than I’d really like to admit, and I found myself
the stay at home mom of a toddler and in need of a job! Not a “real” job, but something
that would allow me to earn a few extra bucks to help support our family, but
still let me stay home with my precious little girl. That’s when I met
Stephanie Lynn and<a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank"> <span style="color: magenta;">Sweet Spot® Skirt</span></a></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman" , serif; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: magenta;"></span>, and my whole life changed! My spare bedroom became my “workshop”,
my spare time became my “work hours” and I felt good about being able to
contribute to our financial situation. And it was only a matter of time before
working for a company that makes and sells running skirt would ignite a fire in
me that would turn me into a runner!</span></span></div>

I take immense pride
in working for a local company, knowing that all of our products are made in
the USA, by women like me. It’s been awesome watching this company grow from a handful
of at-home seamers like myself, sewing the <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts" target="_blank">classic</a> athletic skirt, to a
full-blown production company, with a whole line of woman’s athletic wear, a
flagship store and our products featured in a leading outdoors retailor! I love that I can go to work in my jammies if
I want to and I can work when it’s convenient for me (9pm to midnight are very
productive hours in my workshop!) I feel
fortunate that I get to earn a paycheck by doing something I actually enjoy
doing, and doing it for a company I actually believe in. But most of all, I
love that I haven’t had to trade in being a stay at home mom for being a
working woman. I’ve never had to make the choice between going to work or
staying at home with a sick child. I’ve never been late to pick her up from
school because a work meeting ran long. I’ve never had to miss a dance class,
girl scouts meeting or church activity because of work. And for that I am
forever grateful!! My job is a blessing that I don’t take for granted. </span></span></div>

Stephanie Lynn for giving me a job that means so much more to me than just a

loving our product, for valuing what we do and what we stand for and for and

One cold, drizzly Thursday afternoon, the Girl Scouts
troop I co-lead took a short walking field trip from the library where we
usually meet to a park a couple of blocks away that lies on the banks of the
Willamette River. As a treat for the girls, we let them make trail mix that
they could munch on along the way. Each girl was asked to bring one ingredient
to add to the mix. One girl brought a bag of M&M's, one brought a bag of
chocolate chips, one brought a bag of peanut M&M's, one brought a bag of
marshmallows and one brought a bag of mini pretzels. Yum! The girls were
excited about their custom made trail mix, and it turned out to be the
highlight of the field trip. It was a yummy treat for our troop, but definitely
not a source of sustainable energy! </div>

From road trips to backpacking trips, trail mix can be a fun,
convenient snack to have on the go, and it’s so easy to customize according
to your own personal tastes! But to make this snack a healthy one, we need to
get beyond the M&M’s and marshmallows! Here are some basic guidelines to
making a healthier snack mix: </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<strong><span style="color: #f2084f;">1. Nuts</span></strong><span style="color: #f2084f;"> </span>– <em>Use any kind of nuts you like, but try to
stay away from ones that have been coated and roasted in hydrogenated or
soybean oils and salt. Raw nuts are ideal.</em><br />
<i><br /></i>
<strong><span style="color: #f2084f;">2. Seeds</span></strong> – <em>Seeds are
actually packed with protein, iron, magnesium and an array of vitamins and
minerals. Like with the nuts, go for raw, unsalted seeds.</em><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #f2084f;">3. Dried Fruit </span></strong>– <em>Dried
fruits have a high sugar content, which makes them a great snack for boosting
low blood sugar after physical activity. Be careful when picking dried fruit! Lots
of dried fruits are coated in sugar, so be on the lookout for sun dried fruits that
are unsulfured. They tend to be more expensive, but are a much healthier option.</em><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #f2084f;">4. Fun Stuff!</span></strong>– <em>Just
because it’s healthy doesn’t mean you can’t throw in a little fun! Feel free to
add in a handful of your favorite treat. Dark chocolate and popcorn are good
options, but don’t limit yourself to that; try some pretzels, peanut butter chips
or other sweet treat! (Don’t let your sweet treat outweigh the healthy stuff!)</em><br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"> <span style="color: #e06666;"> 2016 is finally here and the hot topic is once again New
Year’s Resolutions! Have you made you made yours yet? Are you resolving to lose
weight? Get more sleep? Spend less money? Drink less wine and more water? Join
a gym and <i>actually go this time?</i> Be
nice to everyone you meet? Watch less and read more?</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #e06666;"> Every year I wake up on January 1<sup>st</sup> with a set of
resolutions and the best of intention, but by February 1<sup>st</sup> I’m out
of steam and totally over it! (For a look at Stephanie Lynn’s thoughts on themes
vs resolutions, you can check out her blog <span style="color: cyan;"><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.blogspot.com/2011/12/resolutions-vs-themes-where-they-came.html" target="_blank">here</a></span>) This year, in preparation of
the Resolution Rush, I’ve combed the internet looking for tips to help stick
with those well-intended goals throughout the year. I found a list of <span style="color: #741b47;">“15
Foolproof Strategies To Stick To Your Fitness Resolutions”</span> on <a href="http://greatist.com/">greatist.com</a>, but
15 tips seemed like a lot to me, so I picked my 5 favorites to share with you.
I think these five tips will be helpful whether you’re resolution is fitness
oriented, lifestyle based or some combination of both.</span></span></span></div>

and Measure</u></b>: The simple act of writing out your goals gives you a sense
of ownership and something tangible to reflect on throughout the year. And when
your write out your goals, make sure to be specific, with measurable
expectations. If your goal is to lose weight, don’t write something vague like
“This year I resolve to lose weight”. How much weight do you want to lose? When
do you want to lose it by? How are you going to do it? Writing something like “This
year I resolve to lose 25 pound by working out four times a week and eating a
healthier diet” gives you something you can measure and work with.<span> </span>If you’re resolving to spend less, instead of
adding “I will spend less in 2016” to your list, try something like “In 2016 I
will spend less by setting a monthly budget, making a list before I go shopping
and leaving my credit cards at home” </span></span></span></div>

shouldn’t be a daydream, it should be something attainable, otherwise you’re
setting yourself up for failure right from the get-go. Saying you’re going to
lose 150 this year may be a really nice thought, but may not be manageable.
Being realistic and setting attainable goals is a much healthier way to go.
Maybe you do need to lose 150 pounds, but by setting small goals that are
attainable (for example 10 pounds in six weeks), you’ll be more likely to reach
your goals and feel like you’re making progress and less likely to get
discouraged and want to quit. </span></span></span></div>

reach a goal, treat yourself! Giving yourself something to look forward to can
help your reach your goals faster! Just make sure your “treat” doesn’t undo all
your hard work! If you just hit your first 10 pound goal, don’t treat yourself
to a whole chocolate cake; maybe treat yourself to a new <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts" target="_blank">Sweet Spot Skirtathletic skirt</a>, or some other fitness gear instead! Or if you’re resolving to
drink less wine and more water, don’t celebrate your first wine-free month with
a bottle of merlot. (Remember, it’s easier to fall back into old habits then it
is to create new ones!)</span></span></span></div>

step should be is no reason to not start or give up! If your goals are fitness or
weight related, talk to the trainer at your gym, or make an appointment to talk
to a dietitian. If your goals are money related, you can go to your local bank
branch and talk to a banker or account manager. Another form of asking for help
is being open about your goals with your friends and family. Share you
resolutions with us on our<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sweetspotskirts" target="_blank"> Facebook</a> page. Ask someone to be your accountability
buddy. Maybe that means asking your mom to hold your list (and wallet!) while
you shop together to make sure that only the items on your list end up in your
cart, or maybe it means asking a friend to join a gym with you so you have a
workout buddy. Asking for help and/or support can me a vital part of success! </span></span></span></div>

yourself, but don’t give up entirely. If you find yourself losing steam, reread
your written list and see if you need to reevaluate your resolutions. Maybe you
need to scale back a little bit, or rearrange your goals. </span></span></span></div>

decided to pop into my local fabric store. I was only planning on being there
for a minute, but when I went around the last corner, I came face to face with
something I recognized! The Creamcycle athletic skirt was standing right in
front of me! To be more exact, a woman wearing the Creamsyscle athletic skirt
was standing right in front of me. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I love

Skirt!” to the woman wearing it, and she replied, “Oh yeah, thanks. It’s really
comfortable.” After talking to her for another minute or two I finally confessed
that I’m a seamer for the company and had, in fact, made the very skirt she was
wearing. We stood in the fabric store for about 10 minutes talking, and
this is her skirt story:</span></div>

were adorable, but wanted more color choices, so she decided to make a trip
into our shop in Vancouver, Wa. She fell in love with the company and the store
and is now the proud owner of 5 reversible skirts! She says the skirts are
perfect to wear for work, because she wants to look a little bit professional,
but needs to be comfortable enough to run around with her students. She says
she likes the simple, straight lines of the skirts, and loves the pops of
color! </span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: small;">We were told to meet at the skirt shop at 6pm for a “Staff
Appreciation Night”. We all tried to get more details about the evening out of
our boss and fearless leader, Stephanie Lynn, but she wouldn’t budge; this was
her surprise and she was going to hold on to it until the very last second! When 6 o’clock rolled around, we were all handed princess
crowns to wear for the evening and then piled into a big red van,and headed off to
our first destination: food! We ended up at <a href="http://nuestramesacamas.com/" target="_blank">Nuestra Mesa</a> in Cammas, Wa. for
dinner, where we were given our first set of “instructions” – “Roses are red;
violets are blue. Tonight you must eat in pairs of two.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had to pick a dinner partner and order our
food together and share! This was a really fun way to dine! My dinner buddy and
I shared a basket of chips and guacamole, a plate of tacos and a bowl of rice
and beans. We all left Nuestra Mesa stuffed and satisfied!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: small;">When we left the restaurant, we took a chilly stroll through
downtown Cammas, stopping at a huge, lighted Christmas tree for a photo op! When
the flashbulbs faded, we were told we needed to make a quick stop at a shop
nearby to drop off some <span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">skirts</a>.</span> When we got to the shop, <a href="http://www.arktana.com/Arktana/Arktana.html" target="_blank">Arktana</a>,
Stephanie pulled a poem out of her bag, along with a stack of envelopes….What
could this be???</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: small;">Stephanie’s poem described each one of the employees and the
roles we each play for <span style="color: cyan;"><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot Skirts</a></span>, and told how much she appreciates
each of us. She concluded her speech by explaining that she was giving us each
a sum of money to spend on boots for ourselves!!! And in case the money in our
envelopes wasn’t enough for the boots we picked, Steph had some money making
opportunities set up for us: party games! Pin The Hat On The Minion and Dart
Gun Shootout. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: small;">Shopping at Arktana was a blast! Nine women in one shoe
store, all shopping for themselves but spending someone else’s money?! Can you
even imagine the state of euphoria we were all in?! I had a really hard time making
a choice! I found a pair of tall red boots that I just loved; a pair of red
ankle boots that were so cute and a pair of grey lace up combat style boots
that seemed to have my name written all over them! What’s a girl to do?? In the
end, I picked the lace up combat boots because they were the first ones I
reached for when we walked into the shop, before I knew that I’d be shopping in
just a matter of minutes! </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;">In the children’s book, “Fancy Nancy: Every Day is Earth
Day” by Jane O’Connor, Nancy has a motto – “Less than a mile, bike in style”.
When the Clancy family has to run quick errands or run to the grocery store for
just a few items, they leave their car at home and ride their bikes instead. I’ve taken her motto and modified it a little;
I say, “less than 10 miles, bike in style!”</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;">So earlier this week when I had 3 quick stops to make, and
it wasn’t raining, I decided to bike it. I snapped on one of my custom <span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">SweetSpot® Skirt</a></span> cycling skirts, grabbed my helmet and bike and hit the road. My
first stop was Goodwill, about two and a half miles from home. I racked my bike and headed inside and found what I was
looking for within about 1o minutes. I went back outside to the rack and stood
in front of my bike for a good 20 seconds before I could make sense of what I
was seeing…my bike was still locked up where I had left it, but the rear fork

my mouth hanging open, unable to believe that someone had stolen my wheel!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">When I finally registered what I was seeing, I got mad! I’m
talking screaming, spitting, crying mad!!!! Why would someone do that? How
mean! What was the point? Of course Goodwill doesn’t have security cameras, so
they weren’t able to help me, though they did offer to call the police
non-emergency number for me. I filed a police report, knowing in my heart that
I’ll never see my wheel again. When I was finished with the police dispatcher,
I was faced with a dilemma: now what? I
was two and a half miles from home and my mode of transportation was disabled…</span>

<span style="font-size: small;">Not wanting to be the
damsel-in-destress-waiting-for-a-prince-to-rescue-her sort of girl, I took what
I saw as the only option available: I hitched up my cycling skirt, picked up my
bike, and hoofed it home. I ride a dark purple<span style="color: purple;"> <a href="http://santiambicycle.com/product/liv-alight-2-womens-210504-1.htm" target="_blank">Liv Alight-2</a></span>; it weighs about 21
pounds. That doesn’t sound like much, but it’s an awkward 21 pounds, and by the
time I got home I swear that bike weighed closer to 121 pounds than </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">As I was walking home, I spent some time praying and
thinking, and by the time I reached my front door, I had calmed down and
changed my attitude, I was still upset about my wheel being stolen, but I
decided not to let it ruin my whole day. I thought about the fact that in the
six months I’ve owned my bike, I’ve had three flats on the rear tire, had to replace
the tube twice, and the tire has a pretty good size hole in the rubber, so
maybe it’s time for a new one anyway (I’m trying to ignore the fact that I’ll
have to replace the sprocket set too! I’ll face that reality another day!). I
also reminded myself that it could have been worse – they could have stolen my
entire bike; it could have happened at my furthest destination from home rather
than my closest; it could have been raining. In short, it could have been <b>a</b> <b>lot</b>
worse!! I decided that I can’t control people’s actions, but I can control my
reactions, and I decided to react with grace. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;">I learned two valuable things that day: First, I learned a
safer way to <a href="https://www.nationalbikeregistry.com/proplock.html#how" target="_blank">lock up a bike</a> – through the back wheel, rear fork and onto
the rack with an added cable lock through
the front wheel/fork. And second, I learned that my <span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Spot®</a></span> cycling skirt
transitions very well from biking to walking!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small; line-height: 107%;">Have you
ever gone on a road trip where you had a set destination but no designated
route or definite stopping places along the way? I just got home from a road
trip of this sort, and it was a blast! If you’ve never taken this kind of road
trip, I highly recommend it! I took this trip with my aunt, who also happens to
be one of my best friends, and our final destination was the “<span style="color: lime;"><span style="color: black;">Something Wicked This Way</span> </span>Comes” <a href="http://www.atlasquest.com/" target="_blank">Letterboxing</a> event in Reno, NV. Even though it’s only a 9 hour
drive from Salem, OR (where I live) to Reno, we left two full days before our
event to make sure we had plenty of time for craft store stops and letterboxing
along the way. So we left Salem on a Thursday morning and finally arrived at
our hotel in Reno at about 10:30 Friday night! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;">The
letterbox event we attended was Halloween themed, with an emphasis on zombies,
witches and ghosts, so I decided to wear my new <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/classic-sweet-spot-skirts/products/rede-cauldron-athletic-skirt" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Red Cauldron athletic skirt</span> </a> by

zombie-ish feel to it. (I especially love the troll leg umbrella stands in the
print!) My <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">Sweet Spot® Skirt</span> </a>was a perfect choice for this event; not only did I
fit right in with the other zombies there, I felt comfortable and unrestricted
enough to easily transition from hiking the trails to bushwhacking through the
undergrowth.</span> The event was a huge success! We had an awesome time out on the
trails, meeting other letterboxers and decoding clues. Some of the highlights
from the event include my aunt and me doing the Thriller Dance for the sheriff
from The Walking Dead (thankfully no one got <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">that </i>on video!), watching Harry Potter and one of the Ghostbusters
engage in a multi-fandom duel, and getting “slimed” by Slimer! Like I said, we
had an AWESOME time!<br />

over, we headed up the mountain to spend the evening in Virginia City, where we
did some more boxing in an old cemetery, and had our pictures taken at the

allowed ourselves two full days to make the 9 hour drive to Reno, we allowed
ourselves extra time to make the drive home, so that we would be able to make
some stops and do some exploring along the way. By the last day of our trip, my
suitcase pickin’s were getting kind of slim, so I decided to flip my skirt
around and take it for a second spin! Oh the beauty of the reversible skirt!! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We made a stop in the Lassen National Forest
in California for a little <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caving" target="_blank">spelunking</a> at <a href="http://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/!ut/p/c4/04_SB8K8xLLM9MSSzPy8xBz9CP0os3gDfxMDT8MwRydLA1cj72BTJw8jAwjQL8h2VAQAzHJMsQ!!/?ss=110506&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&navid=100000000000000&pnavid=null&recid=11435&ttype=recarea&pname=Lassen+National+Forest+-+SUBWAY+CAVE" target="_blank">Subway Cave and Lava Tubes</a>. The cave
was a lot of fun, and my skirt kept me warm enough in the subterranean chill (46
degrees year round!), but maybe next time we’ll think to bring a flashlight!
The flashlight app on my aunt’s iPhone was ok, but about the time we reached
the middle point, Lucifer’s Cul-de-Sac, we started worrying about the cell
phone’s battery life!<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">Treadmill running is definitely NOT my favorite form of working out! Nothing about running in place is inspiring to me; no matter what’s playing on the 25 TVs hanging on the wall of the gym or what tunes are pumping through my headphones, it’s just plain boring! But once in a while the treadmill is inevitable. Maybe it’s the weather: it’s too hot or too cold, too wet or too windy. Or maybe it’s the time of day: too late at night, or too dark. Whatever the reason, I do find myself running in place about once a week, so I decided to look online for ways to make this stodgy run more exciting, and what I found is a great 20-minute incline training from Popsugar.com!</span></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">For me, just hearing the word “incline” is enough to make my shins twinge (I HATE hills!), but I love this treadmill workout! Not only do you increase your speed at two minute intervals, you also increase your incline, beginning at an incline of 1.0 and maxing out at 6.0. This routine is a great way to get the sweat flying and the calories melting, without being so tedious that you’re at risk of falling asleep while running in place! Check it out here: <a href="http://www.popsugar.com/fitness/20-Minute-Treadmill-Workout-29833808"><span class="s2">http://www.popsugar.com/fitness/20-Minute-Treadmill-Workout-29833808</span></a></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">*Just a little tip: consider writing the routine out on an index card to place on the screen on the treadmill, and avoid messing with your phone while you run!</span></span></div>

I love Fall more than any other time of the year. I love the colors and smells of. I love the cool, crisp air. I love Fall foods (Pumpkin Spice Latte and candy corn anyone?), and above all, I love my Fall wardrobe! Boots and scarves, sweaters and hats, bring on the warm, cozy clothes! </span></span><br />

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">When it starts getting chilly, I love to wear my Sweet Spot® Skirts with leggings and tall boots. Add a sweater and scarf and I’ve got a look that works for anything from morning coffee with my girlfriends to afternoon PTA meetings. PS. Don't forget they are reversible so you can change your mind and flip to a different color if you want. And for the inevitable trip to the pumpkin patch, all I need to do is swap my leather boots for a pair of rubber rain boots and I’m ready to go! </span></span><span style="font-size: large;">And for all those fun Fall/Halloween runs coming up, we have several new Halloween print athletic skirts available, like Monster Mash, Red Cauldrons, and Spooky Night. Personally, I’m planning on sporting Red Cauldrons for the run I’m signed up to do on Halloween morning! </span><br />

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">Sharon Lee Parker was a fabulous mom, outstanding teacher and caring wife. She endured losing her hair, removal of both breasts and horrible chemotherapy. All while planning care for her 12 year old daughter as her imminent death loomed. The fight with cancer ended her life way to early. Cancer treatments in 1976 were primitive and archaic, even the best doctors didn’t have many answers. Over the last 39 years we have raised awareness for self breast exams and pushed for early detection with state of the art mammography. It has been a rough 39 years without my mother, but it has made me strong and she would be proud. </span></span></div>

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">I want to use the Sweet Spot® Skirts platform to help fight this ugly battle against cancer. Lifestyle changes make a big difference. If you get out and exercise, control your diet, limit your alcohol intake and choose not to smoke your chances of getting cancer are greatly reduced. You don’t have to run a marathon, climb a mountain or complete an Ironman...just a simple 30 minute brisk walk would be a great start. Get an accountability buddy and get moving. We hear stories all year from our skirt family about how they have started this journey to become healthier. Let’s celebrate those women! If just one person reads this and decides to start one of the lifestyle changes listed above, I will have done my job in honoring my mother. </span></span></div>

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">The Kristina 5K/Linda’s Loop is over and it was phenomenal! I had so much fun mingling with the crowd, talking to woman about their journeys and sharing the excitement of the evening before the run started. It was awesome seeing so many women supporting and encouraging each other, and looking fabulous in our <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/fast-n-flirty-running-skirts" target="_blank">Fast & Flirty running skirts</a>! We had about 90 woman participate this year…90 woman all dressed the same, running through the streets of </span></span><span style="font-size: large;">Vancouver and having a blast! </span></div>

<span class="s1"><span style="font-size: large;">I offered myself up as a running buddy to anyone who needed one, and had the honor of running with a young lady named Katie. This was Katie’s first 5K and she came to the run alone. We chatted a lot while we were running and I learned that Katie had never run before she met her boyfriend. She said everyone in her boyfriend’s family runs and that she just decided to give it a try. We talked about our struggles with weight; about losing a few pounds and then gaining a few more back, and she said she finally decided “No more excuses”. Katie told me she’s working towards being able to run an entire 5K without taking any walking breaks, but for now she’s just happy to be able to do what she can, and our first mile was her personal best! It was fun having a running buddy; someone to encourage and cheer along the way, and someone to encourage me, too!</span></span></div>

<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">I went for a run this morning, my last run before the<span style="color: magenta;"><b> </b></span><a href="http://sweetspotskirts.blogspot.com/2015/07/k5k-lindas-loop-runner-spotlight-on.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;"><b>K5K</b></span>,</a> and it was emotional! Summer was very hectic for my family, and because of the chaotic life we were living, two bad habits emerged: first, I got out of my work out routine; I stopped going to the gym on a regular basis and I seriously cut back on my running. The second bad habit was using the fast food drive thru way more frequently than I really want to admit! There were days when we were on the go so much that it was Starbucks for breakfast, McDonalds for lunch and by the time we got home for dinner I was too exhausted to cook, so we’d grab pizza. As a result of this hectic lifestyle and poor choices, the cute shorts I bought at the beginning of the summer don’t button any more. (sad face)</span><br />
<span class="s1"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">So I was running this morning and really beating myself up about how slow I was going and how hard it was and how sore I was getting and how those sudden extra pounds where really weighing heavy on my, and the tears started flowing. About then I passed a middle aged woman who was heading to her car and I finger-waved at her (that’s all the extra energy I could spare!), and she said <b>“Good job honey! You’re way braver than I am!”</b> I don’t know if she saw my tears and that’s why she cheered me on, or if she just assumed the rivers running down my face were sweat, but those 9 words from that stranger changed my run. </span><br />
<span class="s1"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">It was brave of me to get out and run this morning when what I really wanted to do was eat a pack of chocolate Pop-tarts for breakfast, take my daughter to school in my pajamas and go back to bed! It was brave of me to get out there and run when I knew I wouldn’t be able to go as fast or as far as I use to be able to go. </span><br />
<span class="s1"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">There was a time when I was running 5K’s in about 27 minutes; today’s 5K took about 34 minutes. But that’s ok because after I met that woman I started thinking about perspective, and realized that whether I ran a 9 minute mile or an 11 minute mile, I ran a mile!! And because I was running slower today, I got to spend 7 extra (guilt-free) minutes outside enjoying a beautiful day and doing something I love! And even though I was running slow, I was running faster than all my friends who were sitting at home in their pajamas eating Pop-tarts! And the 34 minutes I spent running this morning did way more for my body and mind than hours on the couch would have! </span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">When I got home from my run, after I wiped off the sweat and caught my breath, I went to the </span><br />
<span class="s1"><a href="http://www.sweetspotskirts.com/" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: magenta;">Sweet Spot Skirt online store</span></b> </a>and ordered a running shirt that says <a href="http://sweetspotskirts.com/collections/birthday-bash-sale/products/just-run-tank" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">“Run Happy, Run Grumpy, Run Speedy, Run Slow, Run A Little, Run A Lot, Just Run”</span></a></span></div>
<br />
<div class="p1">
<span class="s1">Where ever you are on your fitness journey, whether you’re a seasoned runner, or you’re just starting out; if you’re running at your top speed, or like me, you’re trying to get back to where you use to be, enjoy it! Take a minute to access and change your perspective if you need to. Just run! </span></div>
