Tell me about your fitness now- what sports do you/enjoy? Training for anything specific?

Lisa:

I love running; especially trail running. Getting away to the Colorado foothills early on a Saturday morning is the start to a perfect day for me! I’ve completed marathons and half marathons and set a goal to better my half marathon time this fall. I also love volleyball, hiking, triathlons and water skiing!

Julie:

My all-time favorite activity is hiking in the beautiful Colorado mountains! Hiking in New Zealand was the BEST experience of my life! I enjoy walking, swimming and cardio kickboxing. The Moms of BornFit will be participating in the Venus de Miles bike ride on August 17^th. Although the summer is booked, I hope to also hike one Colorado 14-er before the end of September.

What wisdom do you like to offer beginning exercisers?

Lisa:

START and stick to it! The hardest step is sometimes that first one, but once you realize that ‘jumping in’ isn’t so scary, you’ll find you can accomplish ANYTHING! Take it one day at a time and, before you know it, you will have logged several days of exercise!

Julie:

Choose an activity you ENJOY and make it fun! If you don’t enjoy it, it is going to be more difficult to stick with it.

Where is your next event? Are products sold in stores or strictly online?

Lisa:

YES, they sell at boutique running stores. We’ll be cheering on all those Beautiful Babes at the Avon Breast Cancer Walk in the Rocky Mtns (Keystone area) the weekend of June 28-29! Go Walkers Go! You are BornFit! Julie:

Julie:

Venus de Miles will be my next official event where I will be a participant. However, BornFit will be exhibiting and/or sponsoring the Avon Walk and Tri for the Cure!

Check out their website BornFit or drop them a note on their blog! I think what they are doing is awesome- setting the right examples, doing things they love and creating clothing for the active woman.
