Blog Exchange: Thank You Lindsay!

So earlier this week I got a box in the mail and didn't open it right away--we're getting a lot of packages these days and most of them are for the kids. When I realized what it was, though, I tore into it and found this T-shirt inside:


It was my blog exchange gift, from a blogger I didn't know but now am following, Lindsay of Lindsay on the Go. Unlike me, Lindsay also bikes and is working towards a triathlon, though she says running is her first love. She also has Type 1 diabetes and writes a lot about how she works that with her running. I'm looking forward to reading about her goals for 2012.

Meanwhile, I LOVE this shirt. I've always wanted something from Oiselle (for female runners, it's sort like what Guess jeans were for me as a middle-schooler)--and now I have something. If you look close, each of the lines on the shirt represents a race, with the top one being a 5K and the darkest one, on the bottom, and wrapping all the around the back of the shirt, being an ultra.....Haven't done one of those, but never say never, right?

Anyway, THANK YOU, Lindsay (and thanks to Jill at Run With Jill for organizing the exchange--I know it was a ton of work). Here's a photo of me in the spirit of the season saying it again:


Merry Christmas, everyone!
