Waaah!!! 
It’s pouring outside! The winds are howling and it’s 42*F, but feels like 23*F with the wind chill. Perfect day for a road race, right?
I ended up buying a new rain coat for just the occasion, but it’s all about the layers today!
Race day outfit:
Shamrock socks!
Let’s hope that my race day gadgets survive the rain! 
For breakfast, I made myself one of my favorite race day meals: peanut butter + banana sandwich.
Yum! 
I’m not sure if I am looking forward to this race or not. At least it will be an adventure, right? And, the green beer is totally worth it!

Haha anything for green beer
good luck and enjoy! Hope you can stay dry!
Best of luck on your race! Can’t wait to read about how it all went. I commend you for sticking to it and even being festive enough to wear shamrock socks. Lord knows I probably would’ve wimped out due to the weather.
Good luck on the race – the rain coat looks perfect for the weather!
I”m not a fan of running in cold rain either but at least you look cute! I hope it went well.
I ran this race also this morning….sort of extreme 5k-ing today, or I’d like to think so, this was my first road race, and I was so excited when I picked up my first official number friday afternoon! The weather was a little intimidating today but it was a memerable first race, and I even finished within my goal time!
Happy Early St. Patrick’s Day!
OH. WOW. Sounds intense!!!!
oooh HAVE FUN! Can’t wait to read all about it!
Loved the outfit….luck of the Irish had to give you an added boost. I experienced the East Coast Soaker yesterday on a 16 mile training run so I feel your distress, but I hope you had a wonderful time despite the weather.
can’t wait to see how you did!! you race day outfit is super cute
I LOVE your Race Outfit!!
