It has been positively freezing here in Tennessee and since I signed up for a marathon in April, I have to get my runs in. No excuses:) My family was so sweet to spoil me with some Lululemon gift cards and I picked up some fun things that are worth sharing!
Base Runner 1/2 zip
I layer this with a cool racerback and it is the perfect weight for days that are in the 30s. Even when it's freezing, I hate to overdress and overheat. This is a great combo.

I wasn't going to get this even though I loved it (it's a similar weight to the 1/2 zip) but when Mr. C and I wandered into Lulu on a wild and crazy date night I couldn't resist grabbing it. I'm glad I did, it's wonderfully comfy. And visible! And cute. Look at the little gathers in the back. Perfect fit!
I also (finally) got a pair of Wunder Unders (Full on luon version) and I can see what the fuss is about. They are very soft, very comfy, and surprisingly warm. I sized up in these because I wanted them to be comfy enough for lounge as well but I wish I had gotten my normal size. Just an fyi.
Last but not least, the best running gloves I've ever come across; Saucony Ulti-Mitts.
They are pricey for running gloves and I wasn't originally going to invest (so I talked my mom into it, ha!) but they truly are worth it. My 2 cheaper pairs were worthless. These are so warm but still lightweight and have 5 finger gloves underneath the mitt.
And on my wishlist...the Brooks Ravenna 5. Must run in bright shoes!
Run Courtney Run! I am so proud of you for running in these frigid temps. I can barely dart out to get the mail or newspaper much less run in this cold.
ReplyDeleteLove all your choices! I agree that the racerback and the pullover are the perfect weight for a cooler day. I hate to get too hot too :) And I'm obsessed with the long sleeve t - you may have just convinced me to pull the trigger!
ReplyDeleteAre you doing the Full in nashville last weekend in April??? I am doing the Full the weekend before at Louisville, the Ky Derby!! I am freaking slightly!!! I got some Under Armour Infrared pants and top and love them!! They are great for wicking and keep you really warm. Happy training!!!
ReplyDeleteI always love all of your Lulu gear! So excited for you and your marathon! I also want some fun and brightly colored shoes!
ReplyDeleteLove your Lulu! I'm running a half in April too and have been struggling finding winter gear that I love! May have to try some of these pieces!
