FASHION: Fashionably Fit with Sports Shoes
Wednesday, 19 February 2014
When
I was contacted about the sports shoes Fashionably Fit campaign, I was right in the midst of my January
exercise motivation spur, I was feeling fat and I wanted to get fit but I could
feel the motivation slipping away.
The campaign was launched in response to
the outrage Daily Mail columnist, Jan Moir, caused when she criticised
singer Katherine Jenkins for running the marathon in full make up (read more here).
The whole idea is to see if
bloggers thought looking stylish spurs you
on to work harder while exercising. I say yes.
I exercise in my garage on my exercise bike and
before now, I'd do it in my pyjamas - An over-sized tee and a pair of shorts. I
think the fact that there wasn't a clear change between sleeping/relaxing and
exercising, because I was still in my pyjamas, was making it very hard. I
really couldn't be bothered but when I started to actually get dressed properly
for my exercise I was more motivated, I wanted to do it properly - I did make
the effort to get up and get ready after all, and that is exactly what these
clothes are made for, they are alot more comfortable to exercise in, that's for
sure. I hate when clothes stick me to when I get sweaty, I think that was also
part of the problem but there isn't too much loose material here to stick to me
and they are breathable, stretchy and comfortable!
In my lovely new matching Nike set, I would even
be happy to run in the street (which I would obviously never do in my pyjamas
haha). I felt like in my new clothes, I was ready to exercise and exercise
harder.
