Just a few random thoughts today…
–Texas running weather has been absolutely SUPERB all week. Well with the exception of a few early morning storms. I did have to move a couple of runs to lunchtime because of thunder and lightning. But then it made this morning’s run that much sweeter and the sun finally came out. And all was well in the world.
–Are you celebrating St. Patrick’s Day this weekend?! This is a pretty EPIC holiday down in Dallas. Supposedly we have one of the biggest parades for St. Patrick’s Day in the country? I heard that on the radio this morning. Who knew. Anyways I am doing a long run Saturday morning then braving the traffic. And the crowds. Pray for me.
–Honestly I thought about not going to the parade simply because of how hard it is to get out there. But I’m going because FOMO. And all of my friends are going. They do have a 5k, which would make it easier to do the race and then just stay out there. Right?! But, 5k? Psssh. No thanks. I am an ultrarunner after all.
–Also, I want to find a new GREEN dress and look all cute. I get paid tomorrow so I will go shopping and find something. But yes, Saturday will be all about looking cute. And I can’t do that if I’m racing. So yeah…Saturday long run, then attempting to shower- grab a massive coffee annnnd be cute RIGHT after- will be interesting.
–I am just now realizing this turned into the St. Patrick’s Day edition of Random Thoughts Thursday. So, here’s a throwback pic from the green festivities a few years ago. Fun fun.
–Do you like green beer? I am not a fan. Someone needs to do a green cider perhaps? Or green wine? I could get down with either.
The GIF above seemed super fitting there at the time.
Where is Tori Spelling these days anyway…
OH…and happy PI day! Go partake in something full of calories, I won’t judge.
Share some of your random thoughts today!! Maybe some St. Pat’s Day/festive ones…
Love your cheerful writings!
Random thought for today – the run in the morning in the national park was super fun with buddies and cold weather too! Still the thought of the upcoming 65k next month is giving me jitters. This will be our longest run in the run up to the Comrades!
YESSS love it OMG the race in the Comrades is sooooo on my list! Wow!! Have a phenomenal time!!
