Those of you who read my other blog know I've been running to work a few days a week, gearing up for May when I release the parking spot I have been leasing in my office's garage.
The plan is to run each way, which gives me a great workout when I'd normally just be sitting on my ass in my car dealing with road rage. It won't be a piece of cake, but I think it's the best (and cheapest!) solution out there. I'm trying to lose that last 15 lbs, and I get to do one of my favorite things: multitask!
Running to work takes some planning ahead. I have to champion a 400-foot hillclimb between point A and point B, so I really don't like to carry stuff on my back -- discovered this one the hard way. This means I throw a bunch of similar looking things into a bag that will all work with one pair of shoes, the same sweater, and maybe a belt, and drop the bag off at the office over the weekend and just hope to heck it all matches.
This week is a combo of driving and running, so I put together three outfits (that I don't have to iron) to make the most of what I've got. When I say I put these outfits together, what I really mean is I was frantically running around the apartment Monday morning grabbing anything that was nearby. Luckily, I keep my clothes pretty basic, because as I have said before, I look stupid in trendy clothes. Really wishing for some black tights right now, though. Note to self...
