Weekend Recap


Happy Monday
So, in case any of you are wondering, the hodgepodge Halloween costume ended up being a school girl. I know it's totally cliche, but I didn't have to buy anything. And I realize some "items" look out of proportion in this pic. I've been sworn to not reveal Victoria's secret.
.
Feeling insecure and sucking in the tummy all night, I asked the Cap how I looked. "Your body is better than a 20 year olds." He scored some major brownie points with that one.
The rest of the weekend was fun and mellow.
.
I managed to get a 6 miler in on Sunday in the RAIN. Yes, you read that right - it finally rained here in sunny So Cal. But it was a warm rain, I still wore my tank and shorts. And, of course the rain stopped right when I got home. I didn't mind though. I always feel so bad ass running in the rain (and it's a lot better than the wind). I even took Big G on the run - I haven't run with him since the marathon. My time wasn't too bad. 6 miles = 50 mins = 8:20 average. I'll take it!
.
Now that it's November, it's time to get re-focused. I want to work on being consistent again. And get back to yoga. I know I keep saying that. I don't know what's holding me back.

You look great! The schoolgirl is always a good standby costume, nothin' wrong with that.

Such a cute school girl!
The glasses are a nice touch.

I wish I could get away wearing a school girl outfit like that! No need to be sucking anything in!

Emily said...

I would need 7 pre-party martinis to wear that - great move! You look absolutely terrific, be proud.

chia said...

I bet Captain felt v. v. proud of your hodgepodge costume ;-)

Sarah said...

Serious - super hot! That kid in Portland is kicking himself about that stupid toe ring comment right about now!

Amy - the gazelle said...

hot!! Glad you had a good Halloween! I feel like enough time has passed that maybe next year I can do a costume again (I get costume anxiety & can only do it once every 4-5 years or so.)

Yay for the run, too!

I'm headed off to Bikram RIGHT NOW!

Six miles in 50 minutes, not bad?? That is a great time.

Whoooaa hot mama!!! You look great!
6 miles with a great pace in the rain, great job!

Reluctant Runner said...

You must have made The Captain very, very happy in that outfit. :-)

I know what you mean about getting re-focused ... I'm trying to doing the same, and I don't have a post-marathon recovery as an excuse.

Laurel said...

You look amazing! Actually, J is sitting next to me and hasn't stopped staring at your pic since I opened your page. LOL!

Dood, that is one fast 6 miler. You still got it.

Jess said...

Matt said...

Hot costume!

Alisa said...

I would love you abs. My back is sore from Bikram yesterday...probably b/c my poor abs have been a bit neglected and can't support my back anymore.

Glad to know I wasn't the only runner suffering in the rain over the weekend.

I always feel a little badass when I've run in the rain...knowing most peeps would just curl back up under the covers and call it a day. Go us!

Viv said...

Holy shit, you look HAWT! Glad I am not a guy. How many chicks would I possibly score talking like that. Seriously....HAWT!

Steve Stenzel said...

Susan said...

I must agree with the Cap. I am very envious!!!

Laura said...

I AM 23 and I'm totally jealous... I was happy to go skimpy on Halloween but vowed that I would not expose my tummy. You look awesome!

Mike said...
