Sham-rocking Fun

There is always something to celebrate in NOLA and St. Patty's Day is no exception. The theme for this week's race(s) was definitely all about the outfit.

The week started with an underwear run down Magazine Street in the garden district.  I figured with my upcoming move to the sunshine state, I should run in crazy outfits while I can.

Anyway,  Rev3 and Wattie Ink combined forces  to rock the "R" and "W" with my husband and Mary Thiel.
And this girl definitely rocks the "W" when it comes to drinking green beer....
Wattie has me beat in that department for sure.
While the underwear run was a blast, the real race was the 8k Sunday. I was super excited about the race although I think it was more about the outfit than the actual race.  Yay for my green lulu and Rev3 combo!
 
And while I trained hard through the week and weekend,  I was hoping for sub 6:40s. It's crazy how the sub-conscious works! Despite going out too hard, I finished with a new 8K PR of 33:38 and a 2nd AG finish. Thanx to Scott for catching this sweet shot :)
