Fit Triangle Mom- Understanding the Journey
Fit Triangle Mom might be the name of my blog, but anyone who fits the criteria above is a Fit Triangle Mom. It's not about going to the gym everyday; it's about finding balance between the challenges of being a mom and fitness. It's about activities or travel with the kids or family. It's about living in the Triangle- shopping, going out to eat, and the many wonderful events our area offers.
Fit Triangle Mom is a glimpse into my journey of fitness, family and faith. I'll share the books I'm reading, the scripture that touched my heart, the cute thing my kid said, or a new exercise I'm learning. I'm not an expert. I'm just a mom and writer, and I want to share my experiences with you.
Fit Triangle Mom supports local businesses especially those located in the Triangle and throughout NC. I enjoy reviewing places of business, shops, restaurants and hotels that cater to a Fit Triangle Mom. Occasionally, I will review national products that are beneficial as well, but the heart of this blog is North Carolina.

Fit Triangle Mom is about helping others. Each year, I have organized a team with the Susan G. Komen race. This past year, I partnered with Vend Raleigh. We had a team t-shirt, partnered with local businesses, and raised some money. It was a wonderful experience.
Finally, Fit Triangle Mom is about you. What concerns you as mom? What type of posts, products and reviews would you like to see? Motherhood is a journey that shouldn't be taken alone. Fit Triangle Mom wants to understand your journey. Please comment below.

Finding the balance is SO hard! I often feel bad about the time I spend working out (not that it's much) when I could be doing something with my kids.
The balance I need is fitting the workouts into my schedule. I let writing, chores, kids, and everything else constantly get in the way.
I love how you said it's not always about the gym. Balance is definitely something I need to find because no matter how much I work out if I'm still eating the same it won't matter.
I feel like it's more of balancing act sometimes. I give myself one hour everyday to workout. It not only makes me stronger, but it puts me in a better mood. I'm a nicer mommy after a workout. Plus I'm better at playing with the kids.
I know what you mean. I'm always thinking about my next post throughout the day or when I'm going for a run, but I just take it each day. My goal is 3-4 gym workouts a week.
Eating healthy is an important factor in weight loss and keeping fit, something I have to remind myself. (I love doughnuts). :)
I've been terrible about finding balance here lately. I think since it had been so hot all summer though I always talked myself out of going for a run. Now that the weather is cooling down, I have no excuse. :) We're getting to that weird stage in our house where my daughter is getting a bit big for the jogging stroller but not big enough to really run with me. I'd love to see a post addressing that sort of issue. How do you combat that?
Lauren, I am just getting to the point where I can run alone (my youngest started preschool). My son outgrew his stroller, so I resorted to running on the treadmill at the gym. Great idea for a post. I'm going to add that to my list. :)
I love N.C., too.
I love reading your blog, Leigh. You always find the nicest places to stay and dine at in NC.
