Girl Talk - All Day

I finally got my feet into a pair of Evo running shoes made with Terra Plana's VivoBarefoot technology. I ditched the socks (a formality given the nature of the shoes) and rushed out for a 2 mile run. There's been a lot of hype surrounding these shoes so I was excited to finally test them out. Check out the review and the video I made immediately after my run.

THE PROS

Unique and attractive design.

Fitted and carefully contructed. There are no loose ends and the materials seem high grade and durable.

Extremely comfortable, especially without socks.

Super light weight...7 ounces to be exact.

Thin, puncture resistant sole that allows you to run on any surface without piercing your skin. However, I recommend avoiding areas with lots of small rocks/spikey objects and uneven surfaces.

Anti-microbial sole that prevents bacterial and fungal growth. This is a very important feature if you decide to go sockless or plan to go...

My grandma recently passed away. She played a huge role in shaping my life and I needed some time to mourn and recover. That's her above, moments after getting a surprise kiss from Shorty. To all my readers: thank you for being patient and understanding why it's been so quiet on mizzFIT.com.

My grandma loved to swim so expect to see lots on aqua fitness and fashion in the coming months. Please submit any classes or gear you'd like reviewed. Send tips or post comments. I'm back at it and I want to hear from you!

Cherie Lily is the Lady Gaga of fitness. She's a cheeky fitness diva...a true one-of-a-kind. She'll raise your eyebrows and heartrate with a brand of music that's truly her own, called Houserobics. Cherie defines Houserobics as "a high-energy, dance project blending house [music], fitness culture, and inspirational lyrics." Why house music? Because she grew up in Chicago and like most raging Chi-town hipsters, permeated the house music scene. She eventually moved to NYC as a fitness pro but her love of music never died. Cherie used her musical inspiration (Madonna), fitness hero (Richard Simmons) and life experiences (she fell deathly ill in India during yoga certification but pulled through) to create Houserobics and unleash her onstage alter ego. She puts on a hella good show. Watch the video below for a preview.

Off-stage and in class, Cherie Lily is an approachable and outgoing fitness pro who swears by Lululemon V Bras and Natural...
