8 1/2 weeks til Pear Blossom!!!

Just looked at the calender and realized this mommy better kick it into high gear!!! 8 1/2 weeks to be comfortable and fast with 10 miles!!! This race is important to me, because last year, it was my first race ever! The one that started my whole journey! Of course, that was the 5k! And I thought I was gonna die at the end! Now I'm ready for more!!! On the hunt for some awesome reflective running gear! Those goofy vests are a bit invasive for a runner and not well-made for all sizes! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Time to lace up and head out into the sunshine!!! Hope you all are having a wonderful day! ~ Karen =)

  1. Oh Karen, soon you will be wearing the goofy, invasive, reflective jackets. I used to think they looked funny too. Now, I have come to love flourescent yellow :-)

  3. reflective vests....LMAO!!!! I have a reflective band that I wear around my calf and I love it! It's required to wear reflective gear when running on base...and most people wear the reflective belts but those bug me so much while I am running. So I started just wraping the belt around my calf which worked great for awhile. Then when I was at the local running shop I saw a calf band. LOVE IT! If you don't have one or can't find one...let me know and I'll get you 2 and send them to you!
