Gots; The Results

I was so excited that I started the shoe transformation immediately when I got home.  I used acrylic paint; 1 white, 1 blue mixed to match the sweatsuit I purchased.  I'm not sure if you can tell from the photos, but the shoes are now navy and sky blue.  My yellow shoe laces (why can't I find those locally?) should be here in a few days.  The original shoes have white bottoms with a blue stripe, but I think I'll leave these as is.  You'll see the complete costume after the Fright Night Run on October 26th.  Before then though, I should do a post about DIY'ing the upper portion of the Life Aquatic intern costume.  It involves a basic sweatsuit and some iron on transfers.
Here's a sneak peeky from this morning's run.  It was cold, I needed a clean sweatshirt and a hat.
XOXO,

Color Me Rad

Lookin' crazy
The color was flying.

Miss Jaime and I.
On Saturday I joined my my friend Jaime at the Color Me Rad 5k.  She's been running for about 6 months and I think she's becoming an enthusiast. This was her third 5k and my first.  It was a good time.  I finished in 39 minutes and I'm good with that.  It didn't even hurt like I thought it would.  I actually had such a great time that I offered to join her for the Fright Night Halloween run.

Now I have to figure out what costume to run in.

xoxo,
B

The Color Run

Starting Line

Ms. Jaime's first 5K.
Color throw.
After
My friend started a program called "Couch to 5K".  I think it's working because today she did her first 5k, The color Run.  It isn't a race for time, walking is okay and that's good because she also signed up for the next one and I decided to join her.
