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. Itโs 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, Iโm 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 youโre not carrying a water bottle with you, be sure that you know where you can find hydration on the way. I personally donโt love running with a water bottle, so Iโll 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 youโll be. There are some great apps for runner safety, which will alert someone if youโre 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 Iโm not exactly scaling mountains in my current condition -or letโs 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 theyโd be mix-and-match staples Iโll 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!

I honestly haven’t shopped North Face in awhile, but I did just did some browsing on their website :). I love a good fleece but I also am totally in love with the Dynamix Hoodie. We are going to Glacier National Park this summer and some of their pieces would be amazing to have!
Obsessed with North Face, I’ve purchased two of their fleeces for the past two years at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale!

I love my long puffy North Face jacket that I got several years ago. I pair that with my white North Face hat (I love the fleece liner) and stay nice and warm while I walk to work during the frigid Boston winter weather.
I love the mix of clothes offered by North Face for different climates. A great giveaway!
Love the Flow Tank!! And your pics are gorgeous!
I wouldn’t have been able to survive this Boston winter without North Face!
Those clothes look beyond comfortable! ๐
North Face has been a staple for me since I stopped running in old cotton race t-shirts. Ha! High quality products each and every time! Love this giveaway. Go Gina!
I’ve had a North Face Denali jacket for years and love it!
I love collecting outdoor gear! Can’t wait for my camping trip this summer!
I love the North Face, especially with our crazy NY weather ๐
I love The North Face! My lab is always so frigid, so my fleece still comes in handy during the summer months. Year-round use!
The North Face is one of my favorite brands for casual coats in the winter time. It’s perfect for Charlottesville winters!
I’ve loved every North Face jacket I’ve ever had!!! Super stoked about trying their athletic line! Great Giveaway!!!
I have a pair of north face hiking shoes that I love.
I totally want that flowy yoga top! Looks fab (kind of reminds me of lulus!).
i love the north face denali jacket!
I LOVE their light jackets. The venture jacket saved my life when I was hiking the Wales Coast Path a few years ago. I’d love to try some of their running and yoga items.
I ran my first (and only) half marathon in North Face capris. I have a soft spot in my heart for their apparel!
I love their hiking gear, need to stock up for the summer hiking and camping!
That is a gorgeous tank. Great giveaway!
I would love to own a piece of North Face active wear.
I love NorthFace gear!!!
I have a North Face fleece that I bought on clearance at REI years and years ago. I have dragged it everywhere, worn it daily in an animal clinic, and put it through so not-so-great stuff but it is still as great as ever! Who knew a $20 jacket would bring me so much comfort?
I love North Face products! I have quite a few NF items I wear for skiing.
I love the tank top! And your little bump is so cute!
I love the flow top- I’m 30 weeks pregnant right now, and I think that one might actually still fit the bump and be useful later too!
