Ready to be a Warrior!

Happy Friday everyone!!

Tomorrow will be a FUN DAY FOR SURE!

Hubs and I get to race our first race together in over a year! ... I can't believe it's been almost 2 years since our last race....together....#holycrap.and we won't really be 'racing' - I've already had plenty-a-pep-talk with my better half so he knows this is only for fun!... and medals! and warrior hats! and BEER!



Bring. It. On.


There will be Eye black.

Not to be confused with Black Eye.




This does put a tad bit of a dent in my running plan for the week. I'll end up doing my long run, sans girlie company + hubby on bike, on Sunday and then it's Superbowl time!

Sidenote: I am not into football, only into professional-snacking.

Any races for you this weekend?
How about wearing eye black, fashion forward or backward??

  21. GIRL! That's hardcore. I'm such a baby when it comes to that stuff. For example I'm doing the color run in March haha. That's about as crazy as I get ;)

  22. Have fun today!!!! My hubby and I did the Warrior Dash in Portland a couple of years ago with some friends. I remember that it was super hot, in the triple digits, so we didn't stay around for the beer. We headed for showers and margaritas!

  23. The warrior dash sounds like so much fun! I can't wait to read your recap about it! I've been trying to get my hubby to run with me for years, I think I'll talk him into a 5K someday, but maybe something like this would be better (more manly lol!) Good Luck and Have fun!
