Jingle Bells, Cranky Smells

Ugh, just ran the Houston Jingle Bell Run, a 5 mile trek down hilly Allen Parkway (the only elevation in Houston). We wore foam antlers and jingle bells, which were kind of cool in that they created this Santalike sleigh noise throughout that part of the city.

Otherwise, it was brutal. It is Dec 9, people! In no way should it be 80 degrees with 87% humidity. We hit a record high today EVER. OMG. I am sunburned. Seriously, it felt like it did when I was training at 5am in July. Today's run was at 2pm.

Whew! A shower (and 2 gallons of gatorade and a club sandwich) later, and I am a new woman.

But it was worth it to get this little souvenir. Christmas Card material!
