Hello everyone! 🙂 I am currently enjoying my husband and honeymoon in Austria, but since I didn’t want to leave you all completely hanging I thought I’d set up a few little check in’s while I was away :).
Today’s post is all about my favorites from 2014 so far!
2014 Favorites To Date
- ProCompression Gear
Compression gear, specifically my Pro Compression socks have been a game changer for me. Especially since the running streak I began in November and with all my overseas traveling.
These socks are the only way I get through long runs and recovery. And they are a GOD SEND for any kind of traveling. Hello no more swelling!
- Dessert Pretzel Crisps
The dark chocolate peppermint flavor were a staple in the Jara household over the holidays. And since then, the Peanut Butter Crunch ones have been introduced to me…and are the best things ever. I literally have NO restraint around these and am limiting their intake in my house (but feel free to send me some if you’d like, Pretzel Crisps 🙂
- MapMyRun App on my Iphone
Or really any application on my Iphone. I’m obsessed, but specifically the MapMyRun app has quickly become a favorite and I’m already looking forward to training season with it!
I love the gentle little voice that tells you your mile time and splits, and the clear map that is shown on the screen. I am excited to play around a bit more and get even MORE creative!
- Whole Foods Homemade Whole Wheat Tortilla Chips
If you haven’t seen these at your local Whole Foods . . . be warned. They are beyond addictive. By FAR the best chips I’ve ever had in my life.
- The Happiness Project
I know I’ve already written all about this book, but man I just loved it. What a great start to 2014.
Just a few of my 2014 favorites everyone! Please share in the comments some of yours, I’m always looking for fun new thing to try 🙂
Chocolate Covered Race Medals 
your socks. ❤
I LOVE PRETZEL CRISPS! I can’t buy the dessert ones either because they are gone in a day. Also loved The Happiness Project. Have you read Happier At Home? Still good, but not as good
MapMyRun App is fabulous!
I need to invest in a good pair of compression socks…………….. and those pretzel crisps 😉
I love my compression too. Wear it during all long runs.
Hah MapMyRun is my fav! Also, it’s super helpful if you get lost, I can’t tell you how many times that little map got me home 🙂
yep i’m also a MapMyRun(ner). i like my ProComps but prefer CEPs (tighter). i need to get The Happiness Project! hope you’re enjoying your travels.
I’m so addicted to Pretzel Crisps! I’ve avoided buying the peanut butter ones because I know that I’d never be able to put the bag down…The white chocolate peppermint ones were a great treat during the holidays though! And the original, with hummus or peanut butter, are delicious!
I loved The Happiness Project! Such a fun read.
