Friday faves + Jabra Rox giveaway
Hi! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? Any fun parties or BBQs planned?? (Here’s a post with some healthy BBQ ideas if you’re planning ahead!)
We’ve had a wonderful time hanging out with the Pilot’s mama/MIL/Livi’s nana this past week. It’s been so much fun to show her around San Diego and enjoy time together. Since the Pilot has been gone frequently since we’ve been here, it took a little longer than we’d hoped to get her out here for a visit. Thankfully, it finally happened, and it’s been great to have her here.
Some faves from the week and around the web:
The Old Spice Guy’s ice bucket challenge video.
THIS HOBO. I’ve been eyeing it for a while and now it’s on s-a-l-e…
The science behind making the perfect cookie.
THIS WINE. We’re fans of the classic over here, but I was stoked to see the Midnight version at Baron’s. It is to diiieeee for; probably in my top five inexpensive reds. We’ll definitely be getting it again!
Finding my beloved eyebrow brush. This is a random thing to love so much, but my Anastasia stencil and eyebrow brush have been missing for a week. I unearthed them from under the makeup drawer, in the way, way back (along with a long lost lipgloss). It was like Christmas!
More reasons coconut oil is awesome.
Yoga Rave in Tucson! I love Session Yoga and the cause (Ben’s Bells); hoping to make it down there for this. If you live in Tucson or nearby, check out the details here. It’s going to be an incredible event.
Stability ball exercises for a strong back.
These earbuds. It was my first time trying wireless headphones, and man, I’ve been missing out! I’m notorious for getting my hands tangled in the wires while running, and violently ripping the earbuds out of my ears. It’s a little painful. I was pretty excited when Jabra ROX offered to send me a pair of their Bluetooth wireless headphones to try.
The sound is crystal clear and AMAZING. They’re also easy to set up and use. At first, I was worried they were too big for my ears, but after using the attachments, they stay put pretty well. I’m excited to see how they pass the “ear sweat” test on a distance run.
Jabra kindly offered a pair of these for a lucky reader as well (valued at $130!). To enter, just leave a comment below with your current favorite workout song and I’ll pick a lucky winner Monday night at midnight (EST).
Happy Friday! See ya later today for Fitness Fashion Friday.
xoxo

My fave song lately is Madonna’s ‘Give It to Me’ that she does with Pharell.
White Light Moment by Tove Styrke – great for the breaking through a running wall.
Bang Bang! by Nikki Minaj, Jessie J, & Ariana Grande.
Fall Out Boy “The Phoenix” and Dj Khaled “All I Do Is Win” are two songs that still get me pumped no matter what!!!
Man, I also tear my ear buds out while running which causing a big ruckus! I’m good with whatever pops up on Pandora… I’m terrible with song titles.
My current fav workout song is Delirious (Boneless) by Steve Aoki!
Thanks Gina for the give-a-way. My current favorite workout song is Fancy by Iggy. I haven’t gotten tired of it yet.
“Black widow” by iggy azalea is definitely my favorite running song at thr moment! Love it!
I’ve been loving Spotify while I workout! I love the variety and ready made playlists.
I love running to the 80s cardio station on Pandora. 🙂
I miss running. We moved this month and I don’t trust the roads around my neighborhood and my treadmill is still in the basement in pieces. I could drive over to the trails by my in-laws home, but I haven’t done that yet.
I recently started off a run to a Muse song. I think it was Sing for Absolution. It was pretty epic.
ahhh i love muse!!
Sam smith stay with me !!! Need to try wireless headphones
Just added “All About That Bass” by Meghan Trainor to my running playlist. Super catchy, and the guy in the video has got some serious moves- love it!
i’m on top of the world by imagine dragons. i’ve listened to it at the end of my last two marathons and it reminds me just how amazing it is to be able to go out there and enjoy all that life has to offer!
Great pictures!! I need to get down to SD before it gets cool again – so beautiful!
Love that wine too. Another great one from TJ’s that’s only $6 a bottle is “Cocobon.” Must try!!
Favorite workout song: Tonight by SPICA or Viva la Vida by Coldplay. These totally get me to finish any workout at a sprint, just because they’re such run-with-your-arms-spread-out songs.
Thank you for this chance to win! I also get tangled up in my cords as well! My favorite workout song is Marvelous Light
Those earbuds look amazing! And my latest go-to workout song has actually been “All About the Bass” by Meghan Trainor. Love the old-school style!
My fave song from today’s workout was It’s Tricky by Run DMC 🙂
Hi! My favorite workout song is B.O.B. by Outkast. 🙂
Awesome!
I’m loving a BodyPump lunge track from an old release lately — it’s a remix of the song “San Francisco”. It’s SO fun!
Sail – Simply because it’s a great warm up song for everything.
Hey there! So a few things:
1) I love your blog, as a fellow Zumba instructor/fitness lover you have so many great posts!
2) Not sure if you are near a World Market, but they are having 20% off ALL wines, including Menage a Trois Midnight Red
3) Workout song: Rather Be ft. Jess Glynne by Clean Bandit
thank you so much for reading!
HEADING TO WORLD MARKET ASAP 🙂 thank you!
The song that always gets me to pick up my pace when it comes on is Livin La Vida Loca!
Mina
Work by iggy azalea
I’m loving “Something Bad” by Miranda Lambert & Carrie Underwood … gets me pumped up!
Those headphones look fantastic! My workout jam these days is “Something Bad” from Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood.
On a completely different note, those photos just made me start hankering for San Diego something bad. <3 (no pun intended haha) Glad to see you're soaking it up!!
I’m loving turn down for what!
“Beat It” by Fall Out Boy always gives me the push I need!
My favorite workout song right now is Maps by Maroon 5…so catchy!
My favorite song to work out to lately is Chandelier by Sia! Also liking Black Widow by Iggy Azalea & Rita Ora & Fireball by Pitbull!
I love Timber!
Stronger by Kanye West. Not much of a Kanye fan otherwise but the song gets me moving!
I’m always suffering from ear phone yankage!
And then you have the annoyance of fiddling around to get them back in and if you are running for time it really feels like it messes you around.
I like Lady Gaga/Beyoncé ‘Telephone’. It’s on my playlist and always gives a little boost.
Holy Grail
My newest favorite workout song is Bang Bang by Nicki Minaj, Jessie J, and Ariana Grande. So fun!
It’s a few years old, but the Points of Authority/99 Problems/One Step Closer mashup on Jay-Z and Linkin Park’s Collision Course album. So good.
Aretha Franklin’s RESPECT always gets me moving!
My favorite workout song is Eminem – Lose Yourself……..great running song – I feel I’m not ALLOWED to stop when I hear it. It would be great to win wireless headphones since I can’t seem to get through a workout without hitting a wire and losing my headphones!
I don’t listen to music while exercising (I know, the horror!). I’m a big podcast girl. I love This American Life, Joy the Baker (like listening to 2 good girlfriends chat while I run) and Another Mother Runner. When I was training for a half marathon this spring I would hoard new episodes of my favorite podcasts to listen to on long runs!
My current favorite workout song is “Fireball” by Pitbull. So catchy!
Anything by Justin Bieber! Haha, only kidding. I still start my workouts with Iggy Azalea’s Fancy. I need a new favorite! Thanks for the opportunity to win the headphones.
I love the song “Jump Rope” by Blue October…and so many other ones!
I just added the Miley Cyrus & Pharrell Williams song “Come Get it Bae” to my workout playlist!
I’m loving Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off”, not typically a fan of her stuff, but this song is so upbeat, I can’t help it!
All About That Bass!
i love working out to anything from skrillex
My current favorite is Black Widow by Iggy Azalea! I cant get enough of it!
My favorite is Primitive (Richard Vission Remix) by Richard Vission & Luciana. It has the BEST beat!!
Like a virgin by Madonna! Old school but awesome!
