My outfit December 14, 2006
Posted by regivizz Clothes, Fitness, Running, ShoesDid 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
Posted by regivizz Clothes, Fitness, RunningIt 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.
