Thriv shirts aren’t your typical athletic wear. They are composed of bamboo for performance and luxury, organic cotton for additional sustainability, and elastane for stretch and support.

I received my sample the other day and fell in love. It’s soft, comfy and cut nicely. No too tight like so many althetic shirts are. MizFit, one of our resident FitBloggers, recently posted a review, click here to check it out!

How can social media be used to help people reach goal? What role does the individuals blogs serve? How much can we achieve through an Online Community?

With all the planning and organizing going on these last few weeks (OMG we are down to weeks!) one thing got us real excited here in the FitBloggin’ camp. The official FitBloggin’ sticker has arrived.

Ok, ok, so only Roni was really the only one that excited but seriously… how cool is THAT?!

Note: As you can tell from my other stickers I’m a runner who loves Wordpress and Firefox.

“Hey, just because I can’t be there doesn’t mean that I can’t do a 5K.” So that’s what I’m going to do. And all of you fellow non-attendees are invited to join me.

On March 20, I will be hopping on my treadmill and doing 3.1 miles. I don’t care so much about the time, although I’d like to finish in less than an hour. 50 minutes, to be exact.

So who’s with me? Shall we have our own 5K on March 20, even if we can’t make it to FitBloggin?

Click here to check out her post and report your 5K times to her and get in on the action remotely.

THIS is what FitBloggin’ is all about.

Some of you are inquiring about additional tickets. We will keep you posted if that is possible and will make announcements next week.
