New Running Gear


Let em just say that I LOVE buying running gear! I bought this shirt from CafePress. They have really cute sayings. I bought Kev one that said "I don't do half marathons, I do a half marathon runner." He wore it for the St. Jude Half. anyways I'm wearing this one for the race sunday. It fit me. I love to run and I love to run the races, but I'm lousy at training. Since the first of December, I have ran maybe 15 times. Most have been short 2-3 miles runs. My long runs have consisted of two five milers, a 7.5 miler, and a 10 miler.

My new Under Armour jacket! I have a black one very similar to this one. I have several capris with pink in them so when i saw this on the website, I just had to have it. It was even on sale! Well... they didn't have it in my size.  I did a google search for it and found it on eBay for the same price as the sale. I love it because it has the thumb holes so you can pull it over your hands and knuckles. It makes a world of difference on really cold  days.

I knew that I needed new running shoes after the St. Jude Half. I love the ones that I had so I google searched them and found them half off at Run Outlet. 

I stumbled upon these at Academy. I needed some cross trainers that fit my foot tighter for P90X. (Running shoes have to be a half size bigger.) These are actually a youth size 5. Which is fine by me because the women's were $50 more.

Last but not least, my two new BIC bands. They're not suppose to slid but mine do. I'm not sure if it's the band or the size of my head. They are a little loose to begin with. For the most part they do they job and they are super cute.

Oh. I can't forget my Jelly Belly Sports Beans! Gotta have energy. 

Poison Ivy isn't much better. My face has cleared up but my stomach and arms are still covered. It's suppose to be 26 race morning, so hopefully I won't sweat and it won't spread.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Can't Wait to Finally Have a Garage!

This morning it was 28 degrees outside! I warmed my car up for 20 minutes and all the frost still wasn't off the windows. I can't wait til next winter when I will have a garage to park in. Not only for winter months but all months truly. In the fall I always get acorns and leaves stuck in my window. In the summer my car is always covered in bird poop and hot and in spring it's covered in pollen. Just one of the reasons I'm so excited about building a house. Having garage to park in!

A Sunday Swim

Sunday afternoon we decided to take a drive. When it was time for the dogs to get in their pen, Hatfield refused. He just stood at the car door. He wanted to go to. So we loaded them up and headed out. Our drive took us to a small lake about 20 minutes always. I didn't even know it existed. Anyways, we let the dogs swim. They loved it! Watch Lilly leap like a dolphin. Hilarious! Or at least it is to us.
