Three Things Thursday

Good bagels, good coffee and good conversation. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy just sitting and talking about any random thing especially with my mom.
#2 Made it out for a run today with my new Garmin. Yeah! I spent a little more time recovering from my half-marathon the other weekend than I anticipated. Got in some good long walks the last few days but the strain in my knee has kept me from picking up the pace. After the fog lifted this morning, I had to run. My knee started to ache around 25 minutes but I managed to push through it. Really, it was only bothersome running downhill.
#3 I’m thinking about my running wardrobe…Okay, so random babbling is about to commence. I love to read running blogs and I’m constantly impressed when I see photos of well dressed runners. I rarely think about what I wear when I run and mostly haven’t cared whether I matched or looked cute. I regularly wear old t-shirts that are stained or have small holes (okay, I’ll admit it….occasionally they have great big holes). Today I wore bright pink stretch pants and a blue top–they didn’t match even a little bit. I’m actually wishing I had taken a photo of myself to show you. Despite my lack of fashionable running gear, I still manage to enjoy running. So, what do you wear when you run? Do you feel more motivated rockin’ some smoking hot booty shorts and wicking tee? Or does a ratty pair of shorts and worn t-shirts do it for you?
