Miles Ran: 99.3 (So close to 100!) Dollars Raised: $526.20
You must attack your run like you are attacking your ninja enemy, with: speed, stealth, lightness of foot, and the determination of a warrior. (I don't know if I look more like a ninja or Rudolph the Reflective Reindeer in this picture)
FIERCE, no? Who knew the sidewalks of Boston were actually a "run"way (get it? haha) for bumblebee looking psychotic cold weather runners. This is how you make running in 11 degree weather look good.
Check out the reflective action on these pieces! I definitely felt a little more at ease running with some very bright colors and lots of refective-wear. Although, it amazed me how at least 3 people I saw today pulled up into the crosswalk to make a turn without even noticing that I was there waiting. It's probably more that they are completely oblivious than anything, and even if I was running with Christmas lights wrapped around me they wouldn't have noticed.Today's run kind of went in waves--started out good, a little shaky in the middle and finished strong. As you can see by my showing off I got some new cold gear, which is AWESOME. The jacket, which matches my gloves, is the Nightlife series by Brooks. It has 3 zip-up pockets, vents, an inside pocket for your ipod, and a fleece lined collar that actually feels comfortable when I have it zipped up all the way. I also got a fleece ear warmer, which, I had NO idea how effective it would be. I felt significantly warmer with it on! I chose not to whip out the neck gator tonight, but I'm sure I will this weekend.
