What to Pack for Frendly Gathering - Burton Girls Takeover Pt. 2

Posted by WinterWomen on Wednesday, June 3, 2015

We’ve all been there: forgetting one single item that it turned out we needed most. Like that time you met up with your friends at the beach, and only remembered half of your bikini; got to the gym and only had one sock in your bag; went for a hike and left your shoes by the door; or took a shower at the office and forgot your hairbrush. As cliché as the phrase goes, preparation really is ...

13 Rules for Car Camping - Burton Girls Takeover

Posted by WinterWomen on Thursday, May 21, 2015

Complete and utter way-out-there solitude isn’t for everyone. A simple motivation to leave your phone in the car for a few days might be plenty—to swap it out for the crackle of campfire, soft echo of neighbors, and the satisfying sense of being outside with no doors to walk through. A loose plan that involves hiking something mellow and grilling later can be better than picking up and setting ...

A few weeks ago, my parents came to visit.

Women Athletes in a Man’s World

Posted by WinterWomen on Friday, January 30, 2015

Gender stereotypes begin at birth. Just last week, I saw a post on my Facebook page of a sonogram of the baby inside my friend’s wife’s belly. The picture was posted with a status update that read, “we are going to have tutu much fun with our little girl,” and the baby’s black and white image was dressed in a pink tutu with a pink bow on her tiny head. The post got me thinking about how this baby ...
