the color run

On Saturday I ran my first 5k since giving birth. Alannah signed us up for The Color Run back in March as my birthday present, and it's been a great motivation to get out and get moving even when I didn't feel like it. This race was similar to the one we usually do, but put on by a different group. My goal was 45 minutes and we actually finished in 40, which even included a few walking stints to favor my still-loose knees, so I was pleasantly surprised. And I wasn't even sore the next day! Go body, go! You are amazing!

fitness secrets

I've never in the history of ever had thighs that don't touch, though I am usually reasonably fit. I don't much mind the way they look but when I go running in shorts I get an icky rash which is extremely upsetting and painful. And I can't just stop wearing shorts because you guys it is dang hot out and plus I can't get a tan in yoga pants and without a tan I'm pretty sure they kick you out of CA. (Just kidding! Maybe? I don't know, I haven't totally figured this place out yet.)

Anyway. If you have thighs that don't touch... Please, kind wizard, teach me your ways.
