Sneaking in Your Workouts

May 31, 2012

Summertime is upon us and after work the last thing many of us want to do is go for a run (hello, it’s happy hour time!). With the help of Lululemon, I have the solution! Perfectly named, the Run From Work Backpack is the perfect accessory to turn your boring commute home from the office into a workout. I live about 3 miles away from work, on a nice day it’s walkable but I also happen to work in one of the most congested parts of the city. What could be a lovely walk home turns into me pushing my way through tourists. Instead, I’ve devised a plan with my new backpack.

I’ll bring my running outfit to work, after I’m done for the day I’ll pack up just the necessities (wallet, keys, phone) and head west from my office to the West Side Highway and run up to the UWS and home.  I love that this backpack is small enough that it holds what you need but doesn’t slow down your pace. It’s equipped with double straps to keep it firm against your body. The bag is also ideal for bike riding. I took it along for a 12 mile spin around Central Park earlier this week and it didn’t leave my back sore like other bags might.

Lululemon always delivers with a healthy amount of pockets and this bag is no exception. There is even a secure spot specifically designed my iPad. I’m a fan!
