Weekend Warrior: Athleta's Summer Sale

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Let's be honest: one of our favorite summertime workouts involves traipsing to the shore's edge, delicately dipping a toe in the water, and sashaying back to our towels so we can devour a pile of trashy magazines (and mimosas, natch). Calories in, calories out, right?

Still, staying fit is a year-round endeavor, and looking good while doing so only ups the ante. That's why we're pumped about Athleta's semi-annual sale, with favorites (like these scrunch shorts, with ruching that morphs any booty into a work of art) marked down up to 60% off—and according to their Newbury Street Twitter feed, they just added a ton of new styles to the mix.

Another favorite workout? Cruising the racks for a deal. Team sport or individual relay—that's up to you.—Karyn Polewaczyk
