Gear: Green Fitness For Earth Day

Today is Earth Day, and this sunny New York weather is perfect for celebrating the planet. My roomie and I got up for an early morning walk through Prospect Park, which was a nice break from our typical run. The daffodils, the sunlight, the dozens of puppies and dogs at play... Hopefully everyone will get a chance to get outside today, and what better way to appreciate the great outdoors than to walk, run or bike through your nearest local park or nature preserve. If indoor fitness is more your speed, you can still do your part for the environment. Check out the selection of yoga mats, rubber tubing, exercise balls and more at Natural Fitness. This company uses materials like natural rubber, hemp and bamboo to construct its products, and they also plant a tree for each item they sell. Now you can nurture the earth from inside your home, gym or studio, as well.
