Happy Friday!
Thanks for joining me, Darlene, Renee, Jenn, and Zenaida for another edition of Fit Five Friday! This week we’re inviting you to share your five favorite running/fitness products. You are, of course, always welcome to write about any other fitness-related topic. I’m deviating slightly this week to share a few of my current favorites with you.

Five Current Faves
Brooks Chaser Short — Brooks has gifted the Run Happy Team a couple of pairs of the Chaser Short this year and I’m a big fan. They come in 3 lengths (3, 5, and 7 inches – the 5-inch is my fave), have a built-in liner, and don’t ride up. They are so comfortable – my only complaint is that I struggle with getting my phone in and out of the back pocket.
Brooks Hyperion — I received these shoes during Brooks Hype Fest. I was surprised at just how light and responsive these shoes are – they feel speedy! I like them for speedwork and can see using them for short runs or races.
AG1 — On the nutrition front, I’ve been using AG1 for the past couple of months. AG1 offers 75 high-quality vitamins, minerals, and whole-food sourced nutrients in just one scoop combined with 8 oz of water. I like to add a little lemon juice to the mix to brighten the taste a bit.
Peloton Hip Mobility — I’ve shared this class before in my Weekly Run Downs and it continues to be a favorite. This is 15 minutes of goodness and it is in constant rotation – if you have the Peloton app, I encourage you to check this one out!
Sidekick Muscle Scraper — I have to runfess that I’ve had my Sidekick for a while and re-discovered it at the beginning of the summer after catching a video of Molly Seidel on Instagram using hers – thanks for the reminder Molly! It’s become a staple in my recovery routine.
What are some of your current favorites?

For me it’s skirts and Topos shoes.
And a few machines at the gym.
That muscle scraper looks interesting! When I was going to PT, my gal did a lot of “scraping” and I bet she had a similar tool (it was always out of sight from my vantage point, so I never got a look at what she was using).
Muscle scraper!?! Ouch! LOL. I’m loving my Arc’teryx tanks and shorts and new hydration vest and belt. I’m all about Saucony’s Endorphin line and have been wearing my Janji hats/tanks/shorts all summer.
Ooh, I’m intrigued by two of your items- the AG1 (I keep hearing that advertised on podcasts and want to try it) and the muscle scraper! Do you really feel like it works? I’m going to look into it.
Oooooh. That scraper looks awesome (and terrible).
I just ordered those shorts, but they were way too big. Hoping to exchange them for a smaller size!
