I travel a lot for work, so I don't always have the convenience of my Pure Barre studio just down the block to get in a good workout. Of course, there are hotel gyms pretty widely available these days, but I sometimes find them to be a bit inadequate or dirty. I think one of the best ways to explore a new city, one that I may not have much of a chance to see otherwise, is to go for a run outside! Since I get the opportunity to shoot in so many beautiful locations worldwide, this can be a great perk, not to mention a nice way to fight jet lag. Bonus points for running along the beach at sunrise, or through the Italian countryside! It also doesn't hurt to have fun exercise gear, like these above from Free People's Movement collection, to motivate you to hit the pavement.
