Yesterday was a fairly typical day. I took Oscar to offleash hours in the morning, went to work, ate stuff, and ran in Central Park in my underwear.
Every year there is an underwear run in Central Park to kick off the weekend of the New York City Triathlon. It's a 1.7 mile fun run and this year the theme was "Celebrate America". A group of awesome ladies was brought together by my friend Betsy, who also happens to be competing in this weekend's tri. She and her friend Faust have a great blog about their training.
We met at 6:30 to undress and bedazzle our outfits as was our patriotic duty. I'll do anything for my country.
AMERICAN GLADIATORS
For a free fun run on a Friday evening, this race is super organized with water and salads (yes, salads) handed out at the finish area. There was a costume contest with the winner receiving roundtrip tickets to anywhere in America. Because we love our country. I think we may have entered the contest, but I'm not actually sure.
SEX, DRUGS, ROCK AND ROLL, AND RUNNING

I managed to get a few pictures while I was running.
