Recipe For a Run When You Are Caring for Toddlers: 1. Get buckets and 🥄 or little shovels (small digging tools not pictured) 2. Go to a track, preferably one that you can access without hopping a fence (track not pictured). 3. Run laps around the track while the kids dig with buckets and spoons in the long jump pit. 4. With every lap get a hand slap from your kids before continuing. Ask them to cheer for you. BONUS: If the high jump pit was left out, now your kids have a jumping toy. DOUBLE BONUS: If there is a little body of water for the steeple chase, bring some swimsuits. 💦 Note: this activity is for parsimonious and active parents who are desperate for some running time. Know anyone like that? Be playful! #whpmood You can find this RUN sweatshirt on my website: vanderjacket ⭐️com.
When I mapped my long run last night on Map My Run, I didn't realize it would take me through a hobbit shire, but there I was. #runningviews

Friend: Did you have another career before you started Vander Jacket? Me: Yes! I was an art teacher at a public high school. But I was a bad teacher.... Friend: Oh! Why were you a "bad teacher?" Me: Because I was so interested in the art: I would notice the line of a green PC cord in the corner of the room, and not notice the chair being thrown by a student. Friend: I can imagine that! 🙂 Now I individually design and sew running jackets in Aurora, Colorado. You can see all of my specialty running apparel and gear at vanderjacket ⭐️com
There is a V in This Picture. ⭐️ "A little way out beyond my kitchen window at the Ranch is a V shape in the red hills. I passed the V many times—sometimes stopping to look as it spoke to me quietly. I one day carried my canvas out and made a drawing of it. The shapes of the drawing were so simple that it scarcely seemed worth while to bother with it any further. But I did a painting—just the arms of two red hills reaching out to the sky and holding it.” --Georgia O'Keeffe 💛 V for Vander Jacket, right Georgia? O'Keeffe appreciated and utilized color like it was essential for existence.
Sometimes you start a plan with a sketch of a feeling. I usually start with the fabric first, and then I imagine what kind of running jacket is possible, but today mood just took over. #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #sportstyle
Eye See You! When was the the last time I ran in a running jacket? Oh that's right! It was for this photo. I promise it will be slightly cooler than blazes again one day! 🔥I hope your week ahead is the tops! Have fun running.
