With a little bonus Wonder Woman.
T-24 hours until it’s go time and I have a to do list longer than the astronauts check list. I know I’ll have a great time once I’m on vacation, but getting from here to there is a bit daunting.
Thankfully, I have a packing list. I created one for my first series, tweaked it for Ragnar and now have it about perfect for these series races. I just copy it into a new file, change the numbers based on races and days gone, and BOOM, I’m ready. Google sheets are my BFF LOL.
The only problem is that my list does not tell me which skirt, which shirt, and what the weather is going to be. Get on that, Google. OK? Add in a little Russian roulette going on with Amazon – one set of packages arrived a day late, the one that was supposed to arrive last night is not here, and I’m supposed to receive shoes tonight. If those don’t arrive, I’m wearing old shoes of the whole event. Isn’t the whole point of paying for Amazon Prime so that you get your deliveries on time? If the shoes are late, they’ll be hearing from me!
Anyways, here’s what my bed looked like yesterday evening when I was playing mix and match with my skirts, socks, and shirts:
And here are my five outfits (with a bonus 6th outfit since there are 6 races).
I’ve also packed a few long sleeve half zips, extra socks, a light jacket, a pair of capris, and gloves. I’m feeling like a boy scout right now!
The big question is whether I will decide to brave it an wear one of the Gym Girl Ultras. I’ve been loving them this summer, but haven’t run more than 7 miles in one. But I love the patterns, so maybe I’ll take a risk and wear one. That, of course, depends on whether I have room in the suitcase LOL!
What are your packing secrets? Share with me! And yes, there will be one entire outfit in my carryon (but I am visiting the mothership AKA Skirt Sports, so replacing things will be easy.)
As per usual, I’m linking up with Courtney, Mar, and Cynthia for Friday Five.
Love that Wonder Woman outfit! It’s very fitting for tackling those races. The Gym Girl Ultra is my go to race skirt. I think I own it in every color…. although I don’t have it in Tantrum. I went out on a limb and got it in a different style. Either way, you will look fabulous while you rock your races. GOOD LUCK!!!
They all look so cute!
I can’t imagine having to pack that many running outfits though. I think my husband would blow a gasket.
I am usually frazzled and exhausted getting ready for a vacation, but it’s totally worth it in the end.
You’ve got this! Super excited for your trip and all your races! Hope the rest of the packing goes smoothly and your shoes arrive!
I LOVE your outfits, girl!! You’re going to have a great time (well, once the packing is over – ha!) and I know you’ll do well. I have no great packing tips, unfortunately…roll it all up, shove it in there and then zip everything really quickly – ha! 😉
You’re going to have such an awesome time AND look great! Keeping my fingers crossed that your shoes arrive on time.
Loving all these outfits esp Wonder Woman. I wish I could run in shorts/skirts! Can’t wait to read all about it. Good luck!
Super cute Flat Mamas! Good luck!!!
OMGeeeee!!! I think I want every one of your skirts!!!! I’m heading to the expo in a bit for my 13.1 in the morning. I have all the gear ready to go…..socks/arm sleeves/compression sleeves are all rolled and tucked inside the shoes. Forgot about gloves!!! It’s gonna be in the mid-40’s at race start, so thanks!! Good luck to you!!
You will be one stylist runner. Goodluck this wkend! I’m sure it’ll be a blast!
I like the run like a rock star outfit the best! They are all awesome!
I love them all. I have skirt #5, so that’s my favorite, of course. But looking like a winner in every outfit…yep…
All very good choices! I’ve come very close to buying that last skirt a few times. Love that print. Have fun!
As you know I am quite the over packer but looks good to me! Have a fabulous time. Love all the skirts
That is a lot of flat mama runners! Is this the one where you are coming to Montana? I wish Baker were closer, I would totally come over and run with you if it was. Love all the pretty skirts!
LOVE the Wonder Woman! I don’t think I’ve ever seen you wear a costume before!
