3 Things Thursday

This is my very first Three Things Thursday post. Yey!  Keeping this short and sweet.  So, here goes...


1.  Weather -  It has been really warm hot here in SoCal since Monday.  In case you didn't know, there was a heat wave last Monday during my long run (record-breaking 113 degrees).  I wanted to swim today to take advantage of this heat but when I got to the pool, there was no sun!  And it was 12 noon!  The water was cooooold. Brrr!  So, here I am, back at home, still in my swimsuit and rash guard, blogging instead.  Waddup, Mother Nature?


2.  New Shoes - It's time for my Mizunos to retire.  She's now more than 500 miles old and has been showing some wear and tear.  I feel it too.  She has served me well.  Thank you, Mizzy!  It's now time to move on to my next running shoes, the Asics GT2150.  Unfortunately, Finish Line didn't have my size so they had to order it for me.  They promised to deliver it by next week.  The best thing about it --- it was on SALE!!! Woot! Woot!

3.  Dream Bike - I would really love to own a Cervelo but it is just waaaaay too expensive for me.  So, instead, I found her....

Isn't she preeeeeeeetty?  I don't have her yet but she is the latest addition on my vision board.  I am claiming her already.  I WILL HAVE HER!  Save, save save!


Happy Thursday Everyone!!!

  7. I'm thinking of getting a pair of 2150's. How do you like it so far? My Adizero Tempo has been taking a lot of punishment during my long runs.

  8. I was about to comment that, you dearly love pink :)

    It's raining here; hence, I cannot run, huhuhu...
