A Most Alarming Shade

120 Days to Race

Today I ran a three miler with my sister. Our plans just happened to overlap today so we decided to run together.  It's always nice to have somebody to distract you while you are running.  What was different today was that she was pushing my niece in a jogging stroller.  I have a lot of respect for people who do that on a regular basis.  It is so odd to not be able to pump your arms.  You'd think that the lack of movement would help you conserve energy but it really doesn't. The stroller rolls very well and it actually takes very little energy to push it, but it really throws you off to not be able to swing your arms.  We kept trading her off.  It also didn't help that the roads aren't completely flat. I know that's a good thing for drainage and all, but it is horrible for strollers.  It ended up slowing us down quite a bit.  It also didn't help that the heat index was still in the nineties. 

Not much fodder for a blog there, is there? I was planning to write this just to try out a new automatic facebook tool anyway.  I went to take a shower first.  I happened to catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror on the way into the shower.  I noticed a massive rash across my breasts. I looked down and realized that my boobs are a most alarming shade of pink. What could it be? I'm not itching. My mind is racing and finally I realize. . .my newish sports bra has faded onto my skin.  Oh well, at least it wasn't the blue one. I'd rather not be a Smurf.
