It feels strange getting Bib Numbers in the mail..

Today my t-shirt and bib number arrived in the mail for my Race for the Cure 5K.  I thought it was so strange getting something like that in the mail. I mean I didn't keep my Warrior Dash one because it was covered in mud but I did keep my Color run bib number and I think this is something I am going to start keeping. DH has a bunch from his bike rides over the last few years and so I always look at his as a sign of his accomplishments in the sport. I don't feel like I am good at running at all yet. My legs hurt and I am worried about my shin splints in my right leg that are resurfacing. I suffered some pain in High School never debilitating but I am much older now. :-/ So I think it make reek more havoc than before. I made some alterations to my 5K shirt and I think I'd not cut so much off next time but hopefully it'll look ok.

I made a purchase that I need to share w/ everyone because it is way cooler than I expected it to be.  So I've been wanting to get one of those blender cups. It is like a type of water bottle but it has a wire ball in it to help mix your meal replacement shakes or spark etc… Every time I went to buy one from advocare.com they were always sold out. Then I was at Target this week and I saw them for sale there! I was excited yet part of me still felt like it was a waste of money just to try to mix my spark when my ice, i put in my cup seems to work just fine as a way to mix it up. But it was dark and my spark stains our cups and they forever taste like spark.  Anyways so today I tried it & was shocked at how well everything was mixed and that it helped me drink it all faster because I wasn't trying to get it to mix for 15 mins.  This thing is GREAT & I highly recommend them.
