under armour fleece divide hoody

As usual, my pictures from RBM are nothing less than stellar.

These 3 are the best of the bunch, no lie.

high-fiving the Grim Reaper

lazy stroll across the finish line…

I just finished up my mandatory 7-days-no-running-post-marathon rest week.  The first 3 days are always nice but then I get antsy.  My sleeping was off this week and physically I feel like a sloth.  Today I enjoyed 6 very easy miles and homeostasis was restored…just like that.

giveaway
The folks at Under Armour contacted me about a review and giveaway of their Fleece Divide Hoody.  I’m a sucker for a cozy hooded sweatshirt so why not?

pros
1.  Definitely cozy and comfy.  The kind of sweatshirt you put on after a freezing cold long run in the winter.
2.  It’s 100% polyester so you could potentially wear it running, as long as you have a wicking long-sleeved shirt underneath.

cons
1.  It’s not really my style.  It’s a tad too shiny?
2.  It’s too big.  Entirely my fault though.  It is semi-fitted and I assumed it would run small so I ordered a medium (I’m normally a XS/S).  A small would have been plenty big.

Now the good stuff – UA is giving away a Fleece Divide Hoody to one lucky reader!

I was given the UA Fleece Divide Hoody in exchange for my review but my opinions are my own.
