Bringin' back the Texas shorts...

So, back in my "prime" (ha!), when I did a little more running, my friend Des & I got Texas shorts to wear for our Disney (florida) marathon. After that, we ended up wearing them for a few other local races just for fun. I DO think they are silly (don't worry) & I do NOT wear them for everyday jogs, but there is just something that became special about those Texas shorts.
So, this morning I did a 5K with Team Riss and decided I needed to fashion the shorts again - it's been a while. I was hoping that this little "race" would get me motivated for shape's sake....that has yet to be decided:)

G.G. (em's momma) helped Cole write some GOOD LUCK messages using sidewalk chalk! What a great cheer section we had - thanks Kurt, Avery, G.G., Anna & Cole!

We had a great time running with you, Nat! The green sweatband helped pull me across the finish line. GG will be sending it inter-office mail to your Mama.
