National Running Day

Around the internet, blogosphere, and social media, the world was buzzing about National Running Day on Wednesday. In previous years, I haven't celebrated this glorious day due to pregnancy and other various activities. This year I decided it was time to finally enjoy the holiday! It seems like every day there is a National Such-and-such Day, but with National Donut Day following a few days later, I felt like this was a natural match made in heaven.

There is a Oiselle shirt that I didn't purchase last year and desperately wanted. The base runner tee (pink with blue mesh sleeves or blue with pink mesh sleeves). Well, I searched the internet far and wide and couldn't find it. I took to Twitter to ask around and found a comparable style on Title Nine's website. The Vroom tee. Well, needless to say, I needed to buy it. The temps here have been either cold or warm so I hadn't been able to test it out until now.


After work, I headed out for some miles on the jogging stroller. Patsy loves her mommy time in the evening and she doesn't like if I'm out of her sight. I know she won't always feel this way so I try to really enjoy these moments. We went for 3 miles around the neighborhood. Simple and sweet. I had the hubs take some photos of us.

Selfie on the self timer! 

Nothing like some shiny forehead sweat after a run!
Mile splits: 9:57, 10:34, 9:55... I may have struggled a little in that 2nd mile. :)

Happy National Running Day to you! How did you celebrate?

  1. I really like your shirt! I did not run that day. I had class in the evening so no time. I guess i could have ran in the morning but I had already ran on Tuesday evening.

    Aww - you guys are so cute! It was my first time "celebrating" National Running Day too -- I did 4 miles after the kids went to bed. Finally!

  4. Thanks! We are still bad with the whole sleep training thing. I will be excited when Patsy goes to sleep in her crib and I can get some things done in the evening. Then again, I know she is only this small for a short amount of time so I enjoy our evening snuggles. The yin with the yang...
