I’m going to have fun with today’s Friday Five topic (Fitness Snapshots) and share photos of my five favorite fitness activities. Don’t worry, I promise they aren’t all sweaty selfies! I’d love it if you’d share your favorite on Pinterest!
1.Running. First and foremost, I’m a runner.
This picture captures how thrilled I was to finally run
a good Lawyers Have Heart 10K.
This picture captures the simple pleasure of a post-race beer.
2. Cycling. Cycling with my true love is my second love.
This is one of my favorite cycling pictures,
and not just because I’m at the beach. 🙂
I think this one was taken near the beach too.
3. Spinning. I never would have guessed that I would like spinning
–let alone love it–but I do!
4. Weight Training. I also enjoy my weight training workouts.
It’s hard to take a selfie while you’re working out with weights,
but I have this collage from a hotel gym in New York City.
5. Planks. Maybe planks are not really one of my favorite things to do,
but since I learned that a weak core was the source of my nagging ITB issues,
I try to do several sets of different plank variations at least a few times a week.
As if holding a plank isn’t hard enough,
try doing it while you try to perfect your form and take a picture!
I wish I had noticed that my foot was askew!
Don’t you love this #runner shirt?! The fact that my blogging friend Carrie got it for me from the awesome Pavement Runner makes it that much more perfect. 😉

Love the #runner shirt, I should have gotten one. Impressed with the plank/selfie variation 🙂
Isn’t it an unwritten rule that if you are a blogger you MUST take sweaty selfies? 😉
Yes, and it gives a free pass to take them anywhere and everywhere! 😉
Love your #sweatyselfies – yup just hashtagged it haha. I am impressed with your plank pic!
Thanks! You should try a #plankselfie – think of it as a new way of planking. 😉
Ain’t nothing wrong with a shameless selfie now and aggain… 😉
You nailed my top favorite workouts, too! I was also surprised by how much I loved spin when I first started going- it has a similar endorphin affect to running, I think!
awesome plank shot – i will be trying this too! 🙂
Those are all of my favorites too. We should go for a bike ride together one day!
GREAT photos!!
love those plank photos! and of course the one of you on the bike. are you guys still taking a vacay this summer?
Ugh. Now my best option seems to be visiting my in-laws or staying home with the dog with my house to myself. :-/
Your plank shots are very impressive 🙂
Sweaty selfies and plank selfies, love it! Those are some good plank selfies!
Thanks! It’ s a fun photo angle.
My favorite is the post-race beer 🙂
Maybe this winter will be the time I finally try a spin class!!!
I’m visiting from the Friday Five link up. I did the Lawyers Have Heart 10k this year too 🙂 it was my first race over a 5k distance. I really enjoyed it. I’ve been trying to do more planks to strengthen my core muscles too.
Of course the last one is my favorite. I’m rather impressed that you can plank and get a good pic. Love that it’s on the track.
Nothing like a post race beer selfie. Always a picture I love to take.
Hah! That’s a great way to think about it.
Three cheers for the sweaty selfies! Great job on the planks.
I’m working on better planking too. Man, it’s hard. Great 10k race!!
Form is so important with planking too – I keep trying and adjusting, hopefully I’m getting stronger too!
I have tried to take a selfie when planking and all I get is a shot of my breasts… I haven’t figured out a more flattering angle. LOL
