Couple of Things....


These are some fabulous car magnets that I now have all over my jeep!! My physiotherapist gave me my first. I loved it so much I tracked them down to a company called "One More Mile" where I purchased a bunch more!! The car magnet is a fantastic idea! No sticky mess to ruin your paint job..... and you can change the placement if you're not happy. They average about $4 US (not too shabby).


Had a fun, hot, 7 miler today! I am really looking forward to my 26 mile run tomorrow. I am going to have to set the alarm and get up early so I can beat the heat.


I have mentioned this about a thousand times before... I love Skirt Sports! They have fantastic clothes that are fun and well made. The Outlet has some insane deals!!! My whole outfit (pictured above) is from Skirt Sports. They have a great new summer line for 2009. I generally wait until they reach the clearance section because I love great deals.

I will mention that I have had some shipping issues. They started shipping via UPS. When UPS ships to Canada they usually charge me an additional brokerage fee (around $26). I request that they ship USPS so that this fee is not charged to me. Any time that I have been charged the brokerage fee, Skirt Sports has been kind enough to reimburse me. It does get a bit tiring having to contact them and get everything settled each time. I hope that someday the "Shipping to Canada" issue will be solved.

p.s. As I was grocery shopping today I was able to resist the Nutella jar that was calling my name. I almost picked one up.... I quickly turned the other way.... only to end up buying a chocolate bar. I suck!

Hi Catherine!

I found a website for you to check out.... www.trademe.co.nz I typed in Tennis skirts and a Nike and Adidas Skort popped up. I hope that helps you out! When you have a cute outfit you run better and faster (plus, skorts hide the wobbly bits just below the ass)!!!

You can always email the ladies at Skirt Sports and see how much it would cost to ship out your way!!

Good luck with the search and thanks for the comment!

I was addicted to cheese flavour Bits and Bites and I would growl at them when I passed them at the grocery store. But pass them I did - keep up the good work.
Nice outfits.
