activewear

If you know me then you know I throughly enjoy working out it's something I do every day and it's important to me.  I just finished my 1st round of Insanity (post to come later). What I wear when I workout is important as well; from the sports bra (it's importance ranks just as high as my running shoes), to the shorts and/or compression long or capri style pants, to the top.  When I shop for activewear I look at how it wears when I look at my activewear wardrobe I have running/workout clothes from 7yrs ago that still I still wearing, still sweating in.  At the sametime I'm not a huge fan of spending a lot of money on the clothes I'm going to sweat in.  So I tend to shop clearance racks and sales I love when January rolls around as retailers like to have sales to meet the needs of those who have new years resolutions of working out.  One place I like to get my activewear from is Old Navy they have a great selection of many different fits and styles.  I was given an opportunity from Crowdtap and Old Navy to get a new activewear outfit of my choice for me and a friend.  I ventured into my local Old Navy store already having in mind that I would get a long compression pants (I have a couple pairs but one of them fits a little funny and i find myself constantly readjusting as I'm running) and a jacket.  Available sizes were a little slim to choose from so I picked based on what sizes were available. Luckily they had long compression tights in my size, next up was which jacket again decision was made based on what sizes were available (and some confirmation of my decision thanks to texting/imessage technology). My sister and I both went the same jackets just different colors in the store these were the only 2 color choices available. My sister was in need of new cycling pants she choose the shorter style.  Wheres as I went with the longer style.  Remember how I said retailers run specials on activewear during the first part of January well Old Navy is not disappointing they are offering 40% off all activewear  both at the store and online until 1/16/2013 so hurry and refresh your activewear wardrobe.
