A legitimate reason to wear short shorts and tight shirts.

I sure did up on Wildwood at the Red Lizard Purge and Spluge last year (ask Chelsie). I was cold waiting for the rest of the folks to finish and had to take off my wet bra. I went up the trail and took off my shirt and the bra (not easy when it is 30 degrees and the bra is wet) and who comes around the corner? A hiking group. They looked unhappy and I tried to explain "It's cold". One of the ladies frowned and said "I can see that". Haters....:P

#dailymission Running gave me the power to quit smoking, recover from bulimia, and CONFIDENCE. But the GREATEST thing it gave me was my super-awesome tech shirt collection! RACE DAY SWAG FTW!!!

#dailymission Gives me a valid reason to turn down drinks & shots the night before. Or even better yet, a valid reason to go home early.

#dailymission The excuse to buy all the trendiest workout clothes, a zillion pair of sneakers, and lots of fun gadgets that provide me with useless information.

last summer i lined up at a 5K with a cotton tee shirt and an old pair of mesh shorts. I felt like a dork! Even my husband said "lets go get you some workout clothes" but you WORK OUT in them. I have a hard time paying a lot of money for expensive "gear" but slowly i'm breaking in!!!

#dailymission Being athletic gives me a self-righteous feeling of superiority. Sounds like a joke, but I know I'm better than most people because I kick my own ass.
