Who else is still a little incredulous that it’s finally summer? Like, I kind of believe a flash snowstorm is going to come out of nowhere.

What does a perfect summer day look like to you? To me, it’s going for a morning run and then spending the day at the beach. Recently, I was lucky enough to do that multiple times! We even started using the hashtag #LadiesOfAthleisure because we woke up for a workout one morning and stayed in workout clothes through brunch and late afternoon. My friends were a little uncomfortable with this, but I told them it was totally normal in my world.

I have so much love for this running outfit. I wore the top for the Brooklyn Half (13.1 approved is saying a lot!) and I rarely run in shorts, but these are my jam. The wide waistband is really flattering, and the length is flattering for a 30-something without looking frumpy. The Athleta website says the top provides “medium support” for A-B cups, but I still found it supportive with a C-cup.

Any weird tan lines from the top are completely worth it, since it’s so gorgeous.

You guys, it was a really hard day at the beach.

I love me a good triangle top, and the Aqualuxe bikini top was flattering while still being tasteful. And my stomach needs to catch up to my arms in the tanning department.

What does a perfect active summer day look like to you?

Greetings from Shelter Island, where the wine is crisp and I haven’t yet been invited onto one of these yachts.

It’s the first beach weekend of the year, and I am HAPPY.

When I get back, though, I have some new goals to chase. I’ll probably start marathon training in about another month or so, and I always like to use non-running training as a time to strength train.

We have a ladies’ chat room at work, and last week my friend Alison asked if anyone wanted to try our lifting program together. IT’S ON. We’re not going to 100% follow the entire program, but we’re starting with a realistic two days a week on top of our normal workout routines.

We spent Saturday afternoon window shopping in East Hampton, where there were definitely NO sales, but there’s lots of sales on the internets today, and I am trying to un-memorize my credit card number right now.

Lilly: LOTS of gifts with purchase. I can’t say I’d mind a rolling cooler, but I’m not ready for that kind of spend!

Nordstrom: Half yearly sale! Ashley has some great picks in this post.

Rebecca Minkoff: up to 50% off. I am NOT clicking through. I am NOT clicking through.

Athleta: $25 off $150, $50 off $250, $150 off $500 with code HEATINGUP.

What are your current workout goalz?
