Old and slow

If you're a marathoner, especially if you're either "of a certain age" or a slower runner/walker, you'll probably relate to my posts. I've completed all the states, my total is over 80, and I've even collected a few age group awards along the way. But I'm always in the last 10% of finishers, thus my view is always from the back of the pack.

Lazy weekend

This was only the third weekend this year that I didn't run a marathon, so I rested. Actually, I had planned to run about 10 Sunday morning, more to try out a new running skirt than training.

Running skirts look so cute on others, and I'm determined to find one that's right for me. The thing is I need pockets. Most skirts don't have them. I bought one, but it's by Race Ready and it has those annoying pockets across the back. They don't work for me. So now I have one by RunningSkirts.com. It has nice side pockets, but it feels as if the waistband isn't firm enough.

I had planned to get in enough miles, with pockets filled, so see if it stayed up all right. Oh well, next week.

I did attend a baby shower for one of my local running friends. It was great fun--saw lots of my local running friends that I don't see often anymore. Thanks, BJ.
