The North Face Mountain Athletics + an awesome giveaway
This post brought to you by The North Face . Read on for the details + an awesome giveaway opportunity!
Hi friends! Hope your day is going well so far! As the season starts to get warmer, many of us will be taking our workouts outside. It’s a great way to get some fresh air, change up your scenery, and try something new. I find that my workouts change depending on the season, and during the spring and summer, I’m excited for the opportunity to get in some outdoor workouts.
Here are some of my tips for taking your workout outdoors:
1) Hydrate like crazy. If you’re not carrying a water bottle with you, be sure that you know where you can find hydration on the way. I personally don’t love running with a water bottle, so I’ll be sure to plan routes where I know water fountains are plentiful.
2) Bring your phone, an ID, and little bit of cash or a credit card.
3) Let someone know where you’ll be. There are some great apps for runner safety, which will alert someone if you’re not back after a certain time and send them your location.
4) Sun protection. SPF It up, and wear a hat to protect your face.
5) Wear light, breathable clothing that you can move in.
When The North Face offered for me to check out some new pieces from their Mountain Athletic line line, I was really excited to check it out. The North Face specializes in outdoor athletic wear, and Mountain Athletics from The North Face is designed for the toughest outdoor environment, making it ideal for a variety of activities. While I’m not exactly scaling mountains in my current condition -or let’s be real, ever- I love to be outside in breathable technical material.
This gear utilizes exclusive active stretch fabric that provides durability, strength, and full range of motion during your workouts. I ordered the Motivation 1/4 Zip and these MA-X shorts, which were perfect for exploring Sunset Cliffs. 
I wanted them both in neutral colors because I could tell that they’d be mix-and-match staples I’ll wear all summer long. The shorts and so light and breathable; I definitely want to get another pair. 
I had a little fun with color by choosing this Flow Tank, which is amazing for yoga. 
The body is super light mesh with back ventilation. The sports bra is provides just enough support for a yoga flow class or a beachside TRX workout. 
And now, the best part! Enter via the widget below for a $500 North Face gift card!

Love Northface! What a great give away:)
I love the colors on the yoga tank!
I love North Face!
Ooooh, I would love to win this giveaway. I need new yoga pants BAD. The elastic is worn out of mine. Also, a hoodie would be divine in a bright color.
I love the North Face, I have a great lightweight jacket for hiking.
North Face is an amazing brand!!
My North Face fleece was one of my best purchases ever.
Wow! What an awesome giveaway and the pictures are stellar!
i love my northface coats (and their lifetime warranty!) for the cold cleveland winters. love that yoga tank you picked out!
OMG. The WOMEN’S DYNAMIX HOODIE looks absolutely amazing. Thank you!
My favorite North Face product is my black vest. Living in Colorado, it gets used on a regular basis for hikes or just everyday wear.
I love my North Face fleece!!
I love North Face! They have great quality clothes!
I love my one North Face jacket that I have. It’s hot pink with a grey fleece lining. It’s my favorite late winter/early spring jacket! Warm and fashionable! I would love more North Face pieces!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I usually head to The North Face in search of fleece, but that flow tank looks amazing!
I love my North Face jacket for winter here. It is so warm without being bulky!
Love the Flow Tank!!
I haven’t gotten anything from North Face before but I really want to!
This would be a great refresh for my workout wardrobe!
love all of the north face clothes!! I would love a new winter coat, or some running clothes!
I have a The North Face winter coat that I have had for about 15 years and it still looks new! I love it!!
You are a great model for North Face! I love the North Face fleece. Your ideas about what to take with you when exercising outside are very helpful. Are you aware of RoadID? They have attractive id bands for a reasonable cost. I was given one for a gift recently. Super thoughtful idea!
I would love to try the dynamix leggings!
I would love to get the women’s dynamix legging along with the women’s pseudio moto jacket in purple.
Absolutely love that tank that you picked!! Loved the front and then when you showed the back it took it over the top!!
I love the flow tank! The back detail is so cute and functional!
Both the shorts and shirt look great, I’m due with my first baby in August and definitely need some comfortable workout shorts for summer!
I “outgrew” some Northface pants after I had my son and sold them on eBay. When I shipped them off I got teary eyed thinking about how many wonderful hiking adventures I’d had in them!
I love the pieces you chose — the two neutrals are so easy to mix and match and the tank is so fun! What a great giveaway! I’d love to try some new northface goodies!
yay north face! i love working out outside!!
I’ve always loved North Face for their comfy and warm fleece jackets, but I’d love to try those shorts!
I would love to have the flow tank!!
I love your outdoor workout tips!
I bought my second North Face winter coat this year before my trip to Iceland in January. The only reason why I needed (aka wanted) a new coat was because I was looking for a longer version of the coat I already had, which has lasted me almost ten years!
I love my North Face jacket and would love to try out more of their workout apparel!
I have a north face jacket which I live in through winter. I also need some outdoor running tops that are comfy. I’m finding vests aren’t working…I need some sleeves!
I just bought my first North Face jacket this past fall before my trip to Banff. Before that, I always thought they were just super trendy, but I’m now a believer! My jacket is so well made, and has so many cool features. It also got me through the brutal New England winter! I’d love to add more pieces to my workout wardrobe!
I love their toddler jackets. Warm and not too puffy for the car seat!
I LOVE the tank you choose. I recently got hooked on Barre classes and would LOVE to purchase some new workout gear.
I like in my ankle length north face coat to survive winters in Michigan! Would love some spring/summer pieces from them though.
I would love to try out the Flow Tank. I like that the opening doesn’t show too much skin.
Everything looks so comfy!
What a fun colored tank!
I’ve completed many marathons and have always run in North Face. What’s so great about their product is that the pieces transform really well from training pieces to every day, errand-running outfits.
Definitely the awesome range of jackets
I’ve never tried North Face workout gear! Looks awesome!
All of my coats and fleece zip-ups are The North Face brand. I work in downtown Cleveland which means I park and walk to work so doubling up on the fleece and coat keeps me super warm. Gotta love TNF!
Oh man – I love the North Face grow with me coats for my toddler, and I still rock my fleece from my college days. I’d love to get some of their workout gear – I love the plyo crew for layering.
I’ve always been a huge fan of their jackets!
