What I Weigh Today

151.5

Posted by: joymanning In: Weigh In

It’s cold out there today. I find myself reluctant to head out for a run, even though I got some warmer gear yesterday at Philadelphia Runner (long pants, gloves, ear warmers). I realize now though that the pants don’t have the pockets I like and I’m contemplating taking them back. I think I will comitt to a work-a-thon until I need to head out to dinner tonight.

If the pants don’t have pockets and that’ll bother you, take them back. If you can handle a change-up, try this:

I have an actual fuel belt, which has a pocket as well, becuase I don’t like carrying a water bottle. They’re very comfortable.

Nathan is a company that is local, which always makes me feel good about buying. I believe they’re around the West Chester area, though Lord knows the belts are probably made in China :)

Yeah pockets are a requirement for me as well. I end up taking about 5 tissues with me because I end up blowing my nose a lot (I’ve become very good at blowing my nose while running!). I sure don’t want to carry the clean OR the used tissues, hence the pocket requirement.
