I'm not expecting anything fantastic on the weight this week.  I went to see Pirates 4 last night and I may or may not have had an entire package of Twizzlers while watching the movie.

NEW!

Mom and I also went to the local outlet mall yesterday morning/afternoon.  I managed to snag a couple pairs of running shorts.  One pair from the Under Armor store for $9.00 clearance, another pair from the Nike Store, $15 clearance on some Livestrong running shorts.  Tonight was the first run in them and it definitely is a different experience.  Much more comfortable wearing the synthetics than cotton.  I just need 1 more pair of shorts to finish my running set.  Of course, when I go on to the other training schedules for the 1/2 marathon, there are more running days than the 3 days a week on the 5K & 10K.  We also had lunch at Max & Ermas, which also contributes to my doubts on the weight loss this week.

I have to keep the outlet mall in mind, as when I go to the 1/2 marathon, I need to pick up some throwaway warm items.  You have to do a lot of standing around early in the morning in January in Florida, which sometimes can be quite chilly.  So they recommend that you have some throw away items to help keep you warm at the beginning of the race.  Items tossed along the route will be picked up and given to charities.  Kinda cool, but not exactly something I'm going to throw away a $50 Disney sweat shirt on!
