There’s not a lot going on around here at the moment, so I am going to share a few photos from my weekend with you!
An early morning Saturday group run left Heather and I laughing about a train incident several years ago. (In 2010, we were waiting for a train to pass and it stopped on the tracks, blocking our way – so we went under it….scariest moment ever!) Back to Saturday, we were approaching the tracks as the lights turned on and the bars came down. Heather asked where the train was and if we could outrun it – unfortunately, it was too close and we wouldn’t have outrun it anyway.
It did lead to a few good laughs and several “I’ll never do that again”! That train was flying!
As we approached the lake (different from the other part of the lake you guys see all the time), we witnessed one of the most gorgeous sunrises ever.
I was in awe of the beauty of it all! Have I mentioned that I LOVE early morning runs? …because I do…just incase I haven’t mentioned that before! :0)
On Saturday afternoon as I was folding clothes, I had a GRAND idea. I began debating how to maximize the use of available space in my closet?
Until now, all of my running clothes…skirts, shirts, tanks, shorts, etc. were stuffed into drawers in my closet. Unfortunately, that means my shirts were always wrinkled. Not anymore! I realized I had plenty of space to hang another bar under my t-shirts for my running clothes! Genius!
My husband is SUCH a good sport. He worked all weekend, but still came home and installed my harebrained idea without complaint! He’s awesome!
Someone on twitter mentioned that my next race expo should be scared…I have a ton of extra hangers now! Yay!
All done! Tanks, shirts, and running skirts…oh yeah, and my Eeyore slippers! :0)
Yet another fun and adventerous weekend behind me! Wonder what this week will bring?
How was your weekend? Any races? Family time? Vacations? Hope it was great!
I have those Eeyore slippers too! Love'em! Also love the new closet addition - looks great!
ReplyDeleteToo funny!! Love them! :0) Thank you so much!
DeleteLove that extra bar!
ReplyDeleteThe weekend was great. We just spent about 2 weeks with family, so this weekend was all about friends. No races, but I did manage to run a little.
Thanks! Glad you had a great weekend and enjoyed hanging with friends! Hope you have a great week as well! :0)
DeleteOooh love the "running closet" :) So fun! All of my workout gear is stuffed into a drawer in my dresser and it continues to expand into other drawers. Maybe someday it will migrate to the closet.
ReplyDeleteYeah that's kind of how mine was, too. I hate that everything was always wrinkled, especially the running skirts!
Deleteyay! your closet looks like mine now lol!
ReplyDeleteHaha...I couldn't stand my wrinkled running clothing any longer! Forgot you hung yours in your closet!
DeleteThis is now the plan for my boyfriend for next weekend! Haha! Thanks for the idea. :)
ReplyDeleteHAH Awesome! Don't tell him it was my idea.... LOL
DeleteI ran for the first time outside yesterday morning. It was quiet, cool and lovely out. Why haven't I done this before???? Oh yeah, running outside is harder than the treadmill :)
ReplyDeleteEeyore slippers?! Love them.
Yes, much harder I definitely agree! :0) I used to be completely fascinated with Eeyore. My fascination has now migrated to Mickey and Minnie, although I still have a special place in my heart for my old pal. :0)
DeleteI love getting running gear organized so that you can see everything. I like the idea of hanging the shorts and skirts.....may need to buy some hangers! :)
ReplyDeleteIt really does make it easier to see it all. Have fun! :0)
DeleteI got stopped by a train just last week! I NEVER have it happen!
ReplyDeleteIt was so random! It hasn't happened to us in a long time, either!
DeleteGORGEOUS sunrise! Thanks for sharing that lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteBut the thought of you guys crawling under the train is terrifying even if it was a few years ago and you lived to tell the tale. :) If you ever have to do that again, just don't tell me! ;)
Thanks so much! Yes, about the train...oh goodness, it still freaks me out. That's a moment I won't ever forget! Don't worry, I don't plan on EVER doing that again!
DeleteI can't believe you crawled under a train, that's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI still can't either...SO scary! Hah!
DeleteThat would totally be an idea of how I would store my clothes.. I'm not a fan of drawers lol
ReplyDeleteMe either! Ugh!! :0)
