Fitness Fashion – Janji Running Gear

Uncategorized

24 May

I saw The Hangover Part 3 last night. I’m not usually one to go to opening night of a movie but I had nothing else to do and have been in a comedy drought, so Hangover it was!

I liked it! I went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised Smile Let me know what you think when you see it.

Fitness Fashion – Janji Running Gear

Janji is a running apparel company with a mission – trying to fight the world’s food and water crisis. Recently a rep sent me some of their gear to try.

Runners require proper hydration and ample nutrition to train, run 5Ks and finish marathons.  At the same time, millions of people around the world lack the basic necessities for survival.

We can change that.

Through each purchase of Janji’s distinctive running apparel, a portion of proceeds funds organizations that are alleviating the worst problems related to food and water.

The company partners with organizations that provide clean water/build wells, medicine and food to those in need.

I’m wearing the women’s Tanzania shirt that gives 3 Tanzanians 10 years drinking water through a well project. These are the colors of the Tanzanian flag.

Purchase the women’s Bangladesh shorts and a family there gets 2 season’s worth of seeds to grow their food. Proceeds go to the Helen Keller International organization.

These shorts are great because they have pockets and are comfy.

*I got a Medium and usually wear a large, so I think they run a little big.

I think it’s an amazing cause – hope you’ll support them if you’re in the market for new gear!

Question: What are you doing this weekend? Any Memorial Day fun?

    No Memorial Day over here but we did get yesterday (Friday) off for Wesak Day. It’s been a great weekend so far – groups runs yesterday and today (maybe even tomorrow), strength training yesterday and tonite is my grandma’s birthday dinner.

    Weekend plans? Work tomorrow morning, then off to my nephew’s high school graduation party. Sunday, church and then both daughter’s have softball practice. Monday my oldest brother is having us over to his house for lunch and play on his new boat. They live on a lake.

    An apparel store at my school sells Janji shirts and shorts! Now I wish I bought one (though they are a bit pricey for me).

    I am going bike shopping this weekend. I want to get me a road bike!

      Oh! Just realized that Janji was founded by Washington University students. That’s why!

      That’s so cool seeing people from my school doing amazing things 🙂

    What an interesting concept. I like that they are contributing to what is really needed in those areas – food and fresh water.

    love love love companies that give back! we rarely think about how much extra we have and how much variety we have, just in fitness clothing, when there are people struggling to have the essentials!

    I’m looking forward to seeing The Hangover too. I know it’ll be the same as the first too, but sometimes you just need to laugh.

    Tonight the boyfriend and I are going to Chinatown for dinner. I haven’t been there in a year or so, so I’m looking forward to it.

    No memorial day plans, as I have to work, but Mark is free so I’m expecting to at least have some deliciously grilled meat to eat when I get home. 🙂 Those shorts are adorable, BTW, and I’m always up for the bonus points of buying clothes for charity!

    Do they make mens running gear? Maybe they don’t run big but the 4,000 calories you burnt last Saturday shrunk you a size 🙂

    Awesome cause… and those shorts are super cute!

    I’m being forced to go camping on Saturday and on Sunday I’m taking my grill out of hibernation and having a few folks over at my place to eat lots of food and break in the Beermeister.

    Oh, and running of course. But no races this weekend.

    Enjoy your weekend!
