Book Review: TravelFit London
Vacations and honeymoons are a great time to sit back and relax, but that does not mean you have to let all your healthy efforts go to waste. If you and your new spouse are heading to London for your honeymoon then you'll definitely want to bring along TravelFit London ($15).
This handy, little travel guidebook gives you the ins and outs on how to keep off holiday weight gain in a city that treasures its fish 'n' chips.
Sightseeing + Running = City Running Tours
I am all about multi-tasking and amazed at the new strategies folks create to combine fitness with other activities. When I first learned about running tours in Rome, I was so excited by the concept that I almost bought a ticket to Italy. Thanks to City Running Tours I can stay stateside and jog to see the sights of New York, Chicago and D.C., with Austin and Denver coming soon.

Good intentions of exercising while traveling can lead to less than positive results if you don't keep an eye on the weather changes.
