You may be stepping out of the blue this month, but we’re stepping in and we hope you’ll venture back in with us. It’s still quiet enough and hot enough to fully embrace pool days, Vitamin C and blue skies. We’re going water-based this month from chats with the lady running for water, water-based exercise and products to swimming tips. It’s time to dip your toes into the water and jump right in, we’re headed into the blue.
