Dear Santa: My Training Wish List

Yesterday was the best day for the second graders in P.E.:  Parachute Day.  FYI:  Teamwork, group organization, and cooperation are things that you learned on Parachute Day.

SPAGHETTI PARTY!  My friend, Terri (half of the best Newlyweds of 2014!), came over for dinner last night.  It was AWE--SOME to have some time with her, sans the guys.  Terri's hubby, Adam, and Harry have been besties since they were kids, so they pretty much dominate the conversation when we double-date.  She told me about all of the wonderful things they got to do on their honeymoon.  *le swoon*

As she was telling me all about her exciting, yet relaxing and invigorating, trip, I ran around making us some dinner.

I made so much food for just the two of us.  We barely finished half of what I plated!

It was the perfect way to end my Thursday!

*le sigh*  Runners:  We want all kinds of RUNNING things for Christmas.  It's just too bad that all the things I think would make my running experience funner (yeah, that's a word) are expensive as all getout, hah!  Luckily, my birthday is in late January; far enough away from Christmas, and close enough to tax return season.  I WIN AT PRESENTS!

1.  Garmin Forerunner 220.  I bug anyone I see with one of these.  I used to have a Garmin Forerunner 305, which was perfect for triathlon, since it was multi-sport friendly.  However, the batteries went deadsies, and I replaced it with a Forerunner 10, which has been fine...just fine.:)

THIS, however, wow.

2.  Wireless headphones, because when you're wearing three layers, it sucks having to re-route your headphones!

3.  Speaking of layers...

Nike Aeroloft 800 Vest

MORE THERMAL PANTS, please!

SmartWool socks...any of them.

4.  I desperately need a new suit.  Nike or Speedo are my way to go.

5.  More headbands.  I have the one that I religiously wear, and I'd love a new one!  I stalked this one on RunningWarehouse.

Not hats, because #ponytailproblems.

P.S. Have you seen the new RunningWarehouse website?  FANCY!

P.P.S.  Anyone doing a Turkey Trot next week?

P.P.P.S.  Anyone traveling for Thanksgiving?  It's going to be NUTS.

Do you have a letter in to Santa yet?  What's on your list?

Do you have #ponytailproblems?  

-Not even the ponytail hoodies can help me!

IT'S FRIDAY!  Big plans for the weekend?
-I'm going to Kohl's!  BIG PLANS!
