Monday.
Some days are rough, some days don’t even have a word to describe it. But a way to recover from them or to survive…is to RUN. At least that is what they say. Running can be difficult at times, yes, but it can also be therapeutic too. Some people blast some music in their headphones…

Get clean on the go.
Living here in one of the hottest states it gets pretty sweaty on a run. Not to mention on those days where the humidity is out of control, which is almost always. I don’t constantly sweat but if I do, you know it’s bad! But luckily there is On The Go Towels. They are pretty LARGE…
