Before the Race …

In my new Mizuno top. Start temp was around 43 degrees. Borrowed my daughter’s buff to keep my ears warm.

Note to self: get a buff.

Sprinting toward the finish.

One of these days I’m going to have an “action shot” where I don’t have a stupid look on my face.

After, holding up my First in Age Group plaque.

(No, there wasn’t anyone else in my age group. No, I don’t care.)

Take Two

Boo wasn’t happy that she missed my actual finish and wanted me to simulate crossing the finish line.

One of these days I’m going to have an “action shot” REAL OR FAKE where I don’t have stupid look on my face.

Thanks, Mom, for the running skirt you gave me for my birthday. The world at large appreciates the extra coverage.

Heaven knows what the official race photo is going to look like. At least in this one I’m smiling and not looking completely miserable.

My official race photo.

The really sad thing (aside from those shorts) is that even knowing this was the photo spot, this was the best I could muster up. At least I look relatively upright and the feet appear to be leaving the ground instead of shuffling.

Well, hopefully it’s soon to be my “before” picture.

I like to think it’s the baggy clothes that make me look fat, but I’m starting to suspect that perhaps it’s the fat that’s making me look fat…
