My Santa Runs 5k Outfit

December 15, 2011 · 5ks

Who likes candy canes? Who likes dressing up as candy canes?

Team Will Run for Ice Cream does apparently since we will all be wearing a candy cane theme outfit to Santa Runs Tacoma on Saturday. We won’t be matching exactly, we’re not that coordinated. I like that, though. Allows us to put our own personal spin on our outfits.

Here’s mine:

Nike shirt and skirt
Team Sparkle skirt
Homemade “arm warmers” from Target
Socks from somewhere online last year
Headband from Old Navy

My favorite part is the headband. It makes me feel like Cindy Lou Who. I may wear a red fleece scarf, too, since it’ll be in the low ’30s. Are you racing this weekend? Dressing up?

That is so perfect! I wanted to wear something festive for a 10k last weekend and ran out of time and ended up being lame and wearing a red shirt and black tights, like everyone else. 🙂

Like I told Kim, I will yell for you if I see you after the turnaround (I'll be behind you, of course, especially since I'm doing the 10k), but don't yell back. Save your energy.
