Yesterday I did a quick recap of the Fitness Magazine FitBlog Meet & Tweet. Today I want to go into a little more detail of the event and the swag!

As we walked in we were greeted super friendly Fitness Magazine employees and given an agenda for the day. IMG_3061IMG_3061
The event was a large open room with all the brands lining the side wall.

Reebok shoes and apparel! Reebok was showing their line of RealFlex Transition sneakers, designed to help your feet move and flex as you train. They look super cute and are incredibly light. I put them on and it felt like I didn’t have any shoes on at all!

The lovely Oakley ladies! They were so nice and helpful. And, their sunglasses are schhhwweeet!   They were showing off their amazing eyewear which is made specifically for the active woman. They look super cute, and fit your face so you can wear them on a run and not have to worry about them slipping down your nose. Sunglasses that I can wear driving to work and on a run! Yes please!

Oakley had two pairs of sunglasses at the event; the Overtime and the Urgency active wear sunglasses. I was able to take home the Urgency Tortoise w/Dark Brown Gradient. They fit my face so well and they are so comfortable. I can’t wait to go for a run in them.

Go With the Grain provided us with snacks all day long. There was a variety of nut butters, hearty grains and many spreads. Throughout the day I had some cashew butter, hummus and nutella!

Lunch was delicious. I had some grilled chicken on top of a big green salad. On the side was farro with arugula and fresh peaches, tossed in a hazelnut vinaigrette and fruit salad. It hit the spot!

And now for the SWAG bag! I had no idea we would be gifted with so many great products when I decided to attend, but I was happy to receive them!

The swag bag itself is Sonia Kashuk; it fits so much stuff. I felt like Mary Poppins pulling stuff out…it just kept coming. I love bags like this because I always have so much stuff that I struggle to find a bag that fits it all and is still cute and stylish! I need to look no further!

The Sonia Kashuk bag was full of goodies….

Lots of healthy snacks including a Camelbak filtered water bottle, Pure Protein bar, Sun-Maid raisins and a recipe booklet, V8 Fusion Smoothie, a box of Fiber One Chocolate Fudge Brownies, and a box of Fiber One Chocolate Chip Cookies!IMG_3091

I snacked on Mary’s Gone Crackers and a Fiber One Chocolate Fudge Brownie on the bus ride home. They are both 90 calories, so it made for a great 180 cal. snack!

The bag was also full of beauty products including Vichy skin firming lotion, Schick razor, Blow Pro dry shampoo which I have been needing to get so I am super excited about that. There was also some Sweaty Bands which have a velvety texture on the inside so they will stay on your head which is awesome because headbands always seem to slip off my head whenever I wear them.

Receiving all the swag was amazing. But truthfully, meeting all the amazing bloggers and learning about the great products for fitness on the market was by far the best part. I can not wait to try all these products. I will be sure to let you all know how I like ‘em!

Happy Friday!

What is your favorite fitness product you use!?
