Did I really just type that title? Geez…what am I turning into…a GIRL?
This afternoon I’m running in a $200 outfit (shoes included). Yes. Me. Moi. The chick who won’t even contemplate spending HALF that much on a “normal” outfit (shoes included!). I’m hoping that the Nike Dri-fit shirt and capris have wings on them to help me fly. I should expect that at the very least, eh?
I’ve always been a cotton t-shirt and shorts kind of a runner. Nothing fancy for me, no way. I have found, however, that cotton gets wet. And cold. And uncomfortable.
What thinkest thou? Am I crazy for buying “running clothes”?

Idiots or Die Hards? December 8, 2006

It was 34 degrees when Moni and I started out for our run yesterday. The wind was (surprisingly) out of the South and (not surprisingly) somewhat fierce.
There were only about 5 other people who were dumb or die hard enough to be out there in that kind of weather!
I did, however, run a decent 4 miles. Yes, I’m a turtle, averaging 9:47/mile. I debated long and hard on posting my times since they are somewhat embarassing, but maybe that’ll help me run faster!
It was 29 degrees when we finished our run. Runners store, here I come for some more efficient layering!
Asics: 16 miles this week, 16 miles total for this pair.
