Nike Tempo shorts, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…
I love you in navy, in black with pink, in pink on pink, in light pink with black, in light blue…
And now in lavender with hot pink and also in burnt orange.
I cannot stop with the Nike Tempo shorts. They are my FAVORITE running short. I like the Nike Pacer, but always come back to the Tempo. Perhaps because Nike tempts me with so many yummy colors!
Academy had Nike Tempo shorts on sale for just $19.99, a fact pointed out to me by my girl Lucy, early on Saturday morning. I managed to make it all the way to Saturday evening before heading to Academy to buy JUST ONE PAIR. And yet I came home with two. I think I showed restraint. The lavender and hot pink are so delightfully girly!
Saturday’s “long run” of 6 miles just wasn’t enough for me, so after bidding the girls adieu, I headed to the track for some plyometrics. Yes, I always feel like a fool prancing up and down the yard lines, but what a great workout! My hamstrings sure were sore on Sunday. I’m skipping, jumping, bounding, lunging and grapevining my way to fitness.
I bought a 26.2 sticker last week. Two actually. I put one on the fridge and another up at my desk at work for inspiration. So anytime I start to shove some garbage into my cake hole, hopefully I’ll be reminded that I have a much LARGER goal than just immediate gratification. As I type this I am consuming a piece of cinnamon salt water taffy. Maybe it takes a few hours to work.
What little tricks do YOU do to keep inspired?
I have those shorts in light blue, and yes, they are wonderful. :o)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the motivation.
Yum. Salt water taffy is delicious. I like the sticker idea. I might have to do that for the HM I want to do eventually.
ReplyDeleteOh, I want some Nike tempo shorts too...do they make them in maternity sizes? :o) To stay inspired, I like to leave my training schedule and race brochures on the fridge, at work, in the car etc. Reminds me what I'm working towards.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those shorts, too!
ReplyDeleteI love your idea to put up the 26.2 stickers! I may have to steal your idea :)
ReplyDeleteThose shorts are cute! Do they have an ipod pocket? Love the colour!
ReplyDeleteThats a great thing to motivate yourself. I've been wanted to get a sticker too. And love the shorts!
ReplyDeleteI actually made a vision board for myself with things I've cut out from running magazines. It helps inspire me.
Amen, tempo track shorts are the best! I keep thinking I'll try the pacer because it's similar, but no. Tempo, all the way!
