Cali or Bust!! My Fund For Fitness!

My #1 Goal this year… in 2014… is to raise enough money to be able to go to Anaheim, California August 14-17th for the IDEA World Fitness Blogfest with Sweat Pink!!  (you can read more about my goal and why it’s my goal HERE)

Why am I trying to raise money for the trip instead of just paying for it?
I LOVE my job! I get to work with preschoolers who have disabilities! It’s such a rewarding job! I walk in smiling and walk out smiling!  When I took the job I knew I wouldn’t be making enough money to pay all my bills let alone get a gym membership, so I had to take a couple other jobs to make ends meet. When I saw how much it would cost to go to the blogfest, I was sad because I knew I wouldn’t be able to go… BUT then I thought, I can raise the money!!  I told myself if I could raise the money outside of my paycheck, I could go to the conference!!  So that is what I am trying to do!! This page is the overview of my progress and different ways you can help me get to California this summer!

The amount it will cost me to go is:

$399 – Conference Cost (covered by Tommie Copper)
$778 – Airfare (Roundtrip)
$636 – Hotel (4 nights)
$1813 $1413 – Full Trip Cost

If you feel like being generous, or want a shout out on my blog and a pat on the back, or maybe just want to be my Fairy God Mother for 2014 and help send me to California, take a look below!!  Maybe one (or more) of the ways to help me live out my dream/goal sounds appealing to you!!  Thanks for even just stopping by and checking it out!! You guys are the best!!

Skinny Yoga Mat Straps

As you know, I am trying to raise money for my DREAM for 2014!  If you missed the post where I told the world my dream and made it legit you can read it here.

One of the ways I am trying to raise money is by selling these Skinny Yoga Mat Straps that I have crocheted myself!  They are full of love from Runner’s Luck! ;)

If you got a yoga mat for Christmas or are just looking for a fun and stylish way to carry your yoga mat to the gym or studio without it unraveling or taking up your precious hand space, these Skinny Yoga Mat Straps are the perfect thing for you!!  They are strong, durable, and washable and have just the right amount of stretch! 

The Skinny Yoga Mat Straps are $8 each which includes shipping and handling fees!! That’s a great price!! Lululemon wants anywhere from $16-$18 for their yoga mat straps!

SO… look no further because you’ve found the perfect Yoga Mat Strap for you, a friend, or a family member! These also make GREAT gifts!!  Valentine’s Day is coming up… *hint hint*
