The Last Time I Ran (Slowly Jogged) A Mile Was In High School

They had us running miles left and right in middle and high school, and you'd think I would get used to it after all those times. Well, to my surprise (stares at the invisible camera), I didn't. 

I tried to make running a habit a couple of times in the last year or so. I would go to the park after the gym and try to jog for at least 10 minutes. After one minute, I was out of breath, haha, and what didn't help was that I had my phone, my keys, and sometimes my headphones and nowhere to put them…until now.

Like everyone else, I wanted to start running, so, of course, I bought the affordable Aonijie running vest https://amzn.to/3Wh9fzK. I was so excited to see it in person and try it on because of all the pockets!!! When it finally arrived, I opened it and explored everything about it. 

It has a small zipper pocket for your phone, money, or headphones. If you have a slightly bigger phone, there is a larger water pocket in the back that you can also slip your phone into. It has adjustable side and front straps, and I thought it was very cool that it came with a small emergency whistle! 

There is an option to buy the vest without the water bottle, but having the water bottle was more convenient. 

I wanted to pick up jogging as a habit because it's a good one, and well, why not try something new? I'm hopeful this cute vest will make running a little bit more enjoyable.
