Friday Funny

Wha'd Up?

The BLT race was back on October 24th.  It went off without a hitch.  Everyone completed it at their own pace and we all did better than expected (which wasn't much lol).  This year the race was timed so it was nice to see the clock as we were running in.  Next year we all need to practice more though instead of waiting until September or October to do a few runs lol.  After the run we all went to Twin 2's for some homemade icecream cake and coffee.  We made plans for brunch at her place next year.

Missing from photo is CF and her daughter S.

Halloween was this past Saturday.  Not too many kids out compared to last year so there has been alot of leftover candy eaten in the past few days.  The time has changed as well.  We gained an hour on Sunday but that means it gets dark around 5 or 5:30 pm now.  That's not fun.  Shortly it will be dark in the mornings and dark in the evenings.  We just need to make it to December 21 (shortest day of the year) and then our year will be a little brighter.  

Can you believe it's November 4th already.  Remembrance Day is next Wednesday then Christmas will be in full swing.  The Parade of Lights is November 21 so we're looking forward to that.

AND guess what else November means....YUMMY!!

Speaking of Starbucks and Christmas, Twin 2 has joined a weight loss challenge with her co-workers.  It started last Monday and runs until December 18th.  Week #1 has passed and she lost 2 lbs so far...just think what could happen if she actually started working out and after the Halloween treats are gone...SHOW ME THE MONEY!

Tip Tuesday

Embrace your inner early bird.  Your core body temperature is lower in the morning, so it takes longer to overheat from exercise performed in warm conditions.  Plus, levels of cortisol (a hormone that helps break down fat for fuel) are higher at daybreak.
