Jingle.. brrrrr... jingle....brrrr

bbbrrrrrr ... this is seattle's forecast for the Jingle Bell Run on Sunday.  My recommendations :
  • 99 cent gloves to wipe your eyes and nose with and then throw away
  • UnderArmour ColdGear... love this stuff... I could live in it all year long
  • running pants - shorts aren't gonna cut it on Saturday or Sunday morning - it's supposed to be colder in B'ham on Saturday
  • clothes / socks / shoes to change into... no sweaty freezing going on !
  • hat... I don't think my ventilated snazzy UnderArmour hat is gonna do,  I'm wearing a stocking cap :) 
  • stretch a little bit before... ouch on the hammys if you don't !
  • bells (of course !)
  • don't wear your BEST running shoes... they're just going to be wet and muddy
  • chapstick
  • sunglasses to help with the wind
  • AND OF COURSE.... a good attitude.  No whining here... it'll be fun and anything at this point is shorter than my half marathon last weekend... good times
