Enough Already!

I have a love/hate relationship with weather.com.  I love how it gives you up to date weather info., how you can check the 10 day forecast, and how you can even get hour by hour weather info.  But, it is driving me crazy!  I think I have been checking Sunday's forecast for my race literally 10 times a day hoping that a magical temperature will appear on the screen.  But, it has and is still forecasting weather in the 90s on race day.  So, ENOUGH ALREADY!  I have got to stop looking at the forecast.  Because, no matter what it is, it is not in my control and I will just have to deal with whatever temp. Mother Nature brings us.

So, I have come to terms that race day is going to be HOT.  With that being said, I have decided to ditch my black Sugoi tri top and wear a cute pink and purple one instead.  Isn't it cute? :)

With sun rays blaring down on me during the run, the last thing I want is a black piece of clothing calling the sun rays to concentrate on my body.  The thing is, I have yet to wear this tri top in an actual tri.  I bought it months ago thinking I would wear it this season.  But then, Outside PR was gracious enough to send me the Sugoi tri top to try and review and I love it and have worn it in every race since.

Although I'm not going to get a chance to swim or bike in it, I did get a chance to run in it this weekend.  I headed out around 10:45, around the same time I'm hoping to be starting my run on Sunday.  It was sunny and hot out.  I ran for an hour and came back completely sweaty and red faced, but the top performed beautifully.  So, it's definitely a go for the race.  Plus, I think wearing a pink top will be easier for my family to pick me out of a crowd then a black top.  And if they can see me, then they can cheer for me, and I have a feeling that I will need every cheer they can give me to help me through.  

P.S.  Sorry about not having a Humpastry Day post today.  I promise I'll be back with something delicious next week! :)
