5 Items we would buy

We've been blogging going on 4 years now and I have been writing my column in the newspaper for just as long. One of the perks to writing is that we often get to try out and review products.

There are many products that we may use one time and then throw them in the back of our closet to never be brought out again and then there are those products that we absolutely love and would have spent double the money on if we had to.

I'm gonna share with you 5 products that we were asked to review BUT would absolutely have bought had we known how much we liked them.

1. My Mizunos.  It is no secret that I love my Mizunos. Had I not reviewed these shoes I probably never would have thought about them as an option for a new running show. I first tested the Wave Riders and absolutely loved them. I then got to try out the Enigmas and liked them too! I have since purchased several pairs of each style.  A Huge thanks to Mizuno. They now acquired a new customer for life (or at least as long as I continue to run).


                         
                             

2. This Under Armour Jacket.  I never thought I was a running jacket kind of gal, but I have got my use out of this jacket ten fold. To be honest I probably would have never picked this out at the store (didn't care for the black/grey combo), but the reality is that it is perfect for me. It has a hood, 3 outside pockets, a mesh lining with some "secret" pockets inside, and it is light weight,, yet keeps me warm (how is that possible ?).  I've worn it on rainy runs and on cold snowy runs. And it ends up that I love the color combo because because it matches most of my shorts or capris.


                                       
                             
3. My Capris from Fabletics.  Every time I wear these capris I get compliments. I love the pattern, and they are good quality (pretty thick material). They just make me happy when I put them on and they match a variety of tanks I already have. I don't know how much these capris retail for but I would totally "buy" them again.


                                   
4. I must ave a thing for capris because another great item I would buy if I had to were these capris from PrAna.  These are not as thick as the Fabletics ones but they are the softest capris I've ever owned and for that reason they are a favorite!

And one of Lacey's Favorites......

                               

5. One of my favorite things I've acquired through blogging is my Boston Marathon mug.  A great company called Gone For a Run made it for me using a copy of the bib from race day. I drink my coffee out of it almost every day and just can't help but smile. Had I known how much joy this little mug would bring me I would have had no problems spending $ on it!

Join us next week when we share 5 items we reviewed that deserve a big thumbs down.
