Unlike some other celebs who are frequently photographed while leaving the gym, Witherspoon seems to actually be breaking a sweat, but she’s still smiling. Maybe she’s thinking of all the fried chicken she gets to eat post-workout! (Photo: AKM-GSI)

![Perhaps one reason Witherspoon smiles when she runs is her cute workout wardrobe. Some of her sassy tops are from her Draper James clothing line, but that Just Keep Livin hat is all her friend (and sometimes co-star) Matthew McConaughey.

![Friends are another of Witherspoon’s workout essentials, but we’re pretty sure that she’s the one motivating her pals most of the time. Not that this fit mom needs any motivation other than her endorphins.

Has anyone ever been as happy as Reese Witherspoon appears to be before, during, and after her regular sweat sessions? The Oscar winner is always sporting a smile and cute athletic wear (often with a motivational message scrawled across her T-shirt) when she works on her fitness. As you pack away your swimsuit for the season and it gets harder to convince yourself to hit the gym, allow Witherspoon to provide some exercise inspiration.
