I did 9 miles in this morning under bright sunshine and chilly temps. I've had a permanent red glow to my face since, it is either sunburn or frost bite. After the run I did a quick circuit of leg weights and abs, my legs are still feeling the after burn of Thursdays workout.
This afternoon a friend called, she is joining the gym and needed some cute workout gear to motivate her to go. Totally logical. I relate completely.
So off we went to Lululemon.
The purpose was to find her cute outfits, she headed to the changing room and I brought items for her to try on. This worked for 2 minutes. Then I started loading my arms up with things for me ... oops.
I ended up buying these two ...
a bright pink zip up jacket and the most fantastic running shirt ever invented.
the jacket ...
and this (SPF Shrug Tech), at first glance it looks like a long sleeve running shirt. But it's more than that, so much more than that. It's a tank and a detactable shrug. That's right, two in one. So on a coolish morning you start out with both, then as you warm up, take of the shrug ... brilliant! If that's not enough, the sleeves have thumb holes.
I love it!

Looks like a fabulous shirt! I agree there is something motivating about new gear. It's almost as good as a new imix for my pod.
I love that top!
I banned myself from Lulu after Christmas, it is impossible to not spend a fortune everytime. I can't just buy one thing.
Yay...love new clothes. Love the shirt.
Oooh, I wish we had a lululemon store here! Looks like great gear.
Oh that's cute! Sounds like the perfect thing for when you start a run early and it is a little cool, then it starts to warm up. Totally useful. Gotta love lululemon!
