Functional Fit: A Creative Solution for Your Key on a Run

By Cool J in Minneapolis

One of my favorite running companions is this pretty lady, Ms. Matilda Sloan!

More recently, I have posted about the puzzle of what to do with your key when out for a run.
(Read those posts HERE and HERE)

My hairstylist/facebook friend/occasional blog commenter (thanks Kol!) saw my post, and sent me the BEST solution. Her solution for my key conundrum just happened to also include running with my favorite running pal.

And the solution is…a fanny pack for your pup!

Doesn’t her dog look pleased?

Your pup won’t even notice the fanny pack, but you know who will notice?

All the neighbors.

They’ll be jealous of how fly your doggy looks.

You think your dog is too stylish for a fanny pack?

Even Rihanna wears a fanny pack.

This neon dog fanny pack was found at a vintage sale in Minneapolis, but I found similar ones HERE and HERE and might have to order one for Ms. Matilda. I was told they most definitely carry old school fanny packs at Rewind if you’re shopping locally.

Have you been to Rewind, Minneapolis people? Two convenient locations:
Northeast Minneapolis: 2829 Johnson Street NE Mpls
Uptown: 2207 Lyndale Ave S Mpls
Monday- Saturday 11-7, Sunday 11-5

Thanks for the awesome suggestion Kol!

Side note:

Looking for a new stylist? Go visit Kol (who is also the owner of the adorable pup with the fanny pack) at Salon Stella in northeast Minneapolis. I have been going to her for seven years. Yes, seven years! She was doing my hair even before my wedding.

In fact, let’s reminisce with a few pictures from my wedding.

She did my hair (and makeup) for that special day:

But I digress.

The purpose of this post was to inform you of a possible solution for your key on a run. Utilize your dog! Functional Fit folks.
