With the number of days dwindling until the arrival of the little one, my sisters insisted that we had to do something, anything together before the baby takes over. With my younger expecting her third baby in January also, it was looking like it could be months before we’d all be able to be at the same place at the same time.
'Tis the season for gifting, so we're all set to give away two pairs of Rudy Project Skymajor aviator sunglasses. These sunglasses are an AthleteStyle staple and one of the highlights of the Gift Guide below. Guys or girls can throw them on after a workout for an instant dash of classic style.
1 Nike Lunar Glide +4 These were the shoe of choice for Bec's husband for his Ironman marathon. He opted for comfort and stability over a racing flat - and if you saw the stairs and hills on the Ironman NYC course you'd understand why. Not only are they functional, but they look great and come in plenty of colors.

1 Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Eye Collection We think all athletes are Pretty Powerful naturally, but a little make up that stays put for a long time, goes a long way. You, or your wife/gf/sister will thank us when that finisher pix email hits the inbox! Plus, this gift set comes with a mini mascara - perfect for tossing in a the race bag for touching up before hitting the podium.
Happy Birthday to SJ who officially moves into a new triathlon Age Group today. Those of you in the 40-44 category no longer have to worry about him showing up at a race and stealing a podium spot. Actually, you probably wouldn't have to worry anyway because he still claims to be "retired" from triathlon after his one Ironman. I'm still not conviced on that front and his endurance sports career is far from over - he just signed up for the Gunks Rock the Ridge 50 mile running race (next May).
We hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! After three family and food filled days in Maryland, we're back in New York. Laurel's editing the many photos we took over the weekend for a slideshow, but in the meantime, I thought I'd post a few shots.
After a ton of photo requests, I finally decided to post a picture. This was taken last week, at the 7 month mark. Not too much longer now and we're all so excited for the new arrival!
Laurel and Maya warming up before today's Green Brook Turkey Trot. They took first in the Doggie Division, running 23:05 for 5k. SJ was 7th overall and the first person over 22 years old. He crossed the line in 19:05.
Did you trot? Let us know how you did!
