Fit Friday – Need it or Want it?

Do you ever see someone at the gym with a cool pair of shoes or a great little gadget?  My knee jerk (that’s an exercise, right?) reaction is always “oooh, I need that!”.  When in reality, I just want it.  Luckily, I don’t need for anything to exercise…unfortunately, I want so many great things.  Here is a little preview of some of my “wants”.

I have been wanting these shoes ever since I saw them for the first time.  I have been known to stare at peoples shoes while completing my 90 seconds of prone cobra or plank.  They are so cool looking…and I see them everywhere!  They are specifically for training – which is great.  I am having a hard time justifying the purchase because I happen to have a bazillion pairs of tennis shoes.  I have been saving my Coke Rewards points to get them for free…the only problem is that I gave up drinking Diet Coke.  So, if you have any points you are not going to use, pass them along to me (please?)

A great pair of running sunglasses.  Yes, I have a cheap pair that I wear right now…but don’t you think I would run faster with an awesome pair of Under Armour specs?  Of course, I can’t justify the $99 price tag.  They will have to wait for me.

A great new gym bag.  I seem to be hitting the gym right after work lately.  I carry my things in a free bag that I received at one of the races that I ran.  I would love to stow it in something super cute and monogrammed.  Plus, this one holds my shoes…my free one doesn’t.  This one isn’t to bad for only $33.95.

I love, love, love this long sleeved racing tee!  How cute is that?  Putting it on.  my.  wish. list.

Do you have a fitness wish list?  What is on yours?
