But with the temp rising it şs putting me off a bit when I can work inside with a nice aircon and not get as dehydrated. The key to working out, outside is hydration instead of one bottle of water I think I will take 2. That’s another good point you made about switching it up, instead of doing a full 1 hour workout outside cut it down to 30 minutes. Also you could always consider shortening your distance, so if you were to run 4 miles half it to 2, can that be a way to switch up it?

I also switch up my daily routines when it’s hot outside so that I’m working out at an earlier time of day. Lately that means waking up at 5 am to fit in a few miles of running, but it’s worth it for a cool, peaceful run that sets a great tone for the day!

Can’t wait to hear about how the tips work out for you. Sending you good vibes for a fast recovery for the swelling of your feetsies. Xox <3 <3

I’ve been running for 3 years, and I never paid all that much attention to it. Only after about 2 years did I start to replace my sneaks like clockwork, but I was totally wearing the wrong minimalist shoes, and I over pronate, which made my already existent bunions progress like the speed of light! The result was double foot surgeries 2 1/2 months ago. I received the all clear to run (in new high support sneaks,) but was sidelined after a week due to swelling. BOO. Anyway I always run outside, and you know how blazing and sticky NY can get in the summer. It’s going to be really hard to get motivated to be back into a routine once I’m able, especially with the rising temps, so these tips will come in handy for me when it’s time! Xx

Love that you are an Orange Theory girl too! Isn’t it the best?! And ahhh so fun that you lived in DTSF.. what a fun place to live. Also, East Bay, love it! Some of my best friends live in the Lafayette/Moraga area. 🙂 Xo

And it’s getting HOT in the East Bay area right now. I lived in downtown San Francisco this time last year and can’t believe the weather change from the City to right across the bridge! WOW! Congrats on all the great stuff happening for you, Jordan! 🙂

Yes!! I am so happy with them so far! To be honest I didn’t even know about them before I got them on Sunday, and I am so thrilled to have discovered them. I am so glad to hear that you like them… I’ll have to keep you posted after I break them in!

I got turned on to them after visiting a running specialty store for an evaluation a few years ago and have never turned back. They are so comfortable and provide the perfect amount of support! Hope you like them as much as I do!
