This is soo fun to be able to communicate this way. I still haven't gotten into texting yet, so this is very high tech for me.
I love this spring running. It is the only time of year when I don't get too hot. I find that if I layer, I can strip down a little at a time as my body heats up. I stop stripping at my running t-shirt and usually capris. I have had to do my cold weather pants a couple of times the past 2 weeks.
I can't run in the afternoon with you all tomorrow, Saturday May 3rd, so I went out this afternoon at 4:00. I found that it may be benificial to not eat a Taco Time crunch wrap at 1:30 on the day I am running in the afternoon. It doesn't taste so good the second time around!
It was a little warm but a breeze seemed to blow by me at just the right time. I know we can all do the 2-runs-a-day thing, get some good music or good friends and just run!
In answer to Tiffany's question about sun exposure on race day, I'm not sure. I have several friends who have done this race before, so I will tap their brains and see what kind of info I can get for our team. I also have a meeting in SLC on June 12th for team captains and can take any unanswered questions.
I have a question about running gear for you all. I like running in capris and have not found any panties that don't do the creapy crawly thing when I run. Do any of you have suggestions?
Run Happy!

Yes, Taco Time is not such a good idea for running fuel. I've also learned the hard way that sweet potato fries and belgian beers aren't exactly a runner's friend...

Panties???? Get rid of the panties all together--running in underwear is uncomfortable and you risk chafing in all the wrong places. If you like that sort of thing, you can always mix in a few long bike rides!

Of course, if you feel too naked, I would suggest trying Body by GAP's low-rise thong. I hated thongs until these, and there is no creeping because...well...they're thongs. Also, since they are low-rise, there isn't a lot of fabric...I think I'm getting into the TMI department, so we'll leave it at that.

I like the patagonia seamless moisture wicking underwear. No chafing, no creeping. I LOVE UNDERWEAR and couldn't run without it!! Speaking of TMI...
good luck finding something you like...
