Two Things Tuesday

Two things sounds short and sweet, right?! Well, it is short and sweet because I feel like a madwoman this week with all the party planning, house cleaning, hair cutting, cake making and general stress around here.  So, here's my leprechaun sized list for today.
  1. I'm doing the Shamrock Half Marathon this Saturday.  Yes, it's been just 2 weeks since my last half but this one is practically out my back door so how could I resist?  I'm excited for another shot at breaking 2 hrs and this run also qualifies me for the Half Fanatics club coming in on the Neptune level, which is 2 half-marathons in a 16 day time frame or 3 half-marathons in 3 months. So cool! Can't wait to join the ranks!
  2. Thank you SO SO SO much for all the support for my Train 4 Autism chapter and for Train 4 Autism and Operation Jack.  It's amazing to already be meeting so many people with stories to share. I truly have such a feeling of solidarity with the work they are doing.  Autism affects so many families and I feel blessed to be involved with doing some good on their behalf. 
That being said, don't forget to enter MY FIRST GIVEAWAY for $25 to iTunes!! I'll be picking a winner on Thursday so you've got 1 more day to enter!  

I leave you with a pic of my cute new socks (Target!) and Bondi Band that I got for the race this weekend.  Forgive the webcam pic. Thai Guy took the camera with him to scouts to get some pics of Firstborn's first day in Cub Scouts.  Can't believe my baby is old enough for scouts!  By the way, when you guys wear funky socks for races, do you wear your running socks underneath them?  I'm a little worried about the rotten cotton.
Hot! ;)

  3. I cut the socks just below the ankle so that way I don't even need to worry about not wearing my normal running socks and just tuck them in... Have fun girly! Woo hoo for Fanatics!

  9. Love the socks. For runs over 6 miles I put my running socks underneath, otherwise I just wear the knee highs. Good luck!

  11. I hadn't even thought about wearing green stuff for the race on Saturday! I'll be wearing my stuff this afternoon for my 5K race in South Jordan (my FIRST 5K ever!). I'll have to find more!
    Hey! I could qualify to be a fanatic after next Saturday (race this weekend and next). Cool!

  14. Those socks are way cute! Can't wait to see your race pics with them on! I would wear running socks under them as a base layer for sure.

    Way to go on your quest to joining Half Fanatics!

  17. Love the socks - I saw a lot of people sporting them at the Shamrock race I ran in over the weekend. I was wondering the same thing - I would think my feet would slide around too much? You'll have to let us know how it went wearing them! :)

    Happy racing!
