Global Running Day 2017
Happy Global running day!! Like I say for all the other holidays, everyday is a running day! but today is when we are getting all the extra discounts and sales!
Today I'm brining you a few random things I don't mention, or mention often about running.
I love doing races, and I the shirts, but I hardly ever wear my race shirts.... better yet, I refuse to get rid of any of them. I have begged a race director for a race shirt, which he refused to give me, but I still begged.... knowing that shirt would just sit in my drawer unused.
I know that if I trained harder, I could be faster.... but I'm not ready to commit to more training right now.
However... I get all sorts of jealous when I see others who have better race times than me. And I also get major FOMO when I see people doing races... even if I'm doing a race already that same day or moment.
I really appreciate all the things that running has brought into my life, the friends, the sights of places I never knew about, the blogging friends and social media friends (Who I count as IRL friends), the endorphins. Those don't ever get mentioned enough!
I rarely wish anybody a happy anything day, but I genuinely mean this today : Happy Global Running day!! If you are running, or not running, that never matters, what counts is that we RUN!
Are you taking advantage of my running day sales? <- I Am!!
Do you have a favorite race shirt that you don't wear? <- I'm always afraid mine will be used up by wearing them!
What is your favorite Random "Day" ? <- aside from today, I love TACO day.

Happy Global Running Day! I've been a marathoner for nearly 20 years and this is the first time I've heard of it! LOL! It's great! I can't believe you have TWO DRAWERS filled with race shirts! You're hilarious. I love it.
ReplyDeleteNowdays we have days for everything!! which I find strange most of the time....
DeleteI have a hoarder's mentality... and I'm clingy.
I have the same thoughts about the race shirts. What I have done is made blankets out of them. Project Repat has made a few blankets for me. They are warm and special to my heart. And now the shirts are not sitting in a drawer and I actually use them.
ReplyDeleteMy sister has agreed to help me make a quilt, but it hurts me to think of ripping them!!
DeleteIve been wearing my race shirts alot lately because its been perfect weather for running in a t-shirt! (Usually I jump straight from long sleeves to tank tops and back again). Happy running day!!
ReplyDeleteYOu are right! this is perfect weather for running tshirts!!
DeleteWhat races did you sign up for today!? I hope they are some good ones. :) I didn't run today of course, buuuuuut... I did do a killer lifting workout which I am sure will help me when I am back to running regularly again!
ReplyDeleteI signed up for Phlly Rock and Roll half and DC Rock and Roll half.... I can't imagine not doing this races, I love the energy of both of them.
DeleteI know you did a killer workout, I can absolutely see it!! it help you stay strong!! and awesome!
I didn't even know taco day was a thing! I'll have to keep an eye out for that one :) I definitely wear some race shirts but I've also been setting some aside that I don't like to wear and I'm going to get them made into a quilt one day.
ReplyDeleteOmg! Taco day is totally a thing... I didn't hear about it until after it passed.
DeleteTech shirts are the best!! I can't part ways with my shirts yet... I hope to get there someday.
