Today’s Run: \u00a07.20 miles<\/p>\n

Last Saturday was the Brown Drawing. \u00a0This is a family tradition on my husband’s side off the family at Christmas time. \u00a0Everyone on the Brown side of the family draws a name (via internet) and purchases a gift with a price limit of $25.00. \u00a0We then gather on the designated Saturday evening for the gift exchange. \u00a0People come from all over the place for this, but primarily from Iowa.<\/p>\n

We had thought about attending this year but logistically, it did not work, so we dropped of the Brown Drawing gifts on our way through Iowa, instead.<\/p>\n

While we were in Iowa, I found out that Aunt Joyce had drawn my name and she wanted to see me open my gift. \u00a0No argument from me! \u00a0So, she and Uncle Denny popped on over and I opened my gift. \u00a0It was a gift card to roadrunnersports! \u00a0Exactly what I had asked for! \u00a0Cool Beans!<\/p>\n

We came back to Mississippi and the very next day, I called roadrunnersports and placed my wish list order. \u00a0Arm warmers and a new headband\/ear warmer. \u00a0I was so excited. \u00a0These were two items I had been wanting for a very long time but was just too cheap to purchase for myself.<\/p>\n

They came last Saturday.<\/p>\n

It was finally cool enough this morning to wear them. \u00a0Yea!!! \u00a0So, my husband dutifully took a pic, while we were running so I could email it to Aunt Joyce so she could see what I purchased with the gift card. \u00a0And now, you too, can see what I got for Christmas!!! \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The arm warmers you roll down your arm as you warm up during your run. \u00a0By the time this mornings 7 miles were done, they looked like sweat bands around my wrists. \u00a0The headband keeps your ears warm and also acts as a sweat band so you do not have sweat running in your eyes as you run. \u00a0Pretty cool stuff, huh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
