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. ...

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.
