Darci wanted to do this for her 30th birthday-- run through caves in Kansas City. What a dreamer. The things we do for our friends. :)
The good news is that the caves should be about 60 degrees.
The bad news is that anything less than 75 degrees is too cold for me, I haven't ran more than 3 miles at one time in the last week, and I've never ran a race before.
No goals over here, but to finish. Maybe tape a little Debbie Cake to Molly's back to keep me runnin'.
With all of that being said, will everyone just pop over to Darci's blog or her instagram (darci_spear) today and wish her a Happy Dirty Thirty. She is one of my favorite people and closest friends.
Happy 30th Dar-say! Me love yew.

And after this weekend, I am getting my rear back in gear with another DietBet. Courtney from Journey of a Dreamer hosted one in December. There was over $7k in the pot. All of the winners who lost 4% of their body weight got to split the pot ($52 for Big Holly). This time, she wants us to get ready for Spring Break. And there is a bigger buy-in ($35) and more at stake to win.
If you're interested in playing along or seeing how it works, click HERE. It's really easy. You pay the website your buy-in money, they send you a code word to take a picture of the scale and verify your weight, then you play along with a pool of people. The great thing is that you can choose to keep your weight and pictures private. At the end of the four weeks, you are given another code word to put on a piece of paper next to the photo you take of yourself on the scale to verify your final weight. Anyone that hits their 4% goal gets to split the pot. It's really fun, I hope you join! It starts Feb 4th. Courtney will be hosting a weekly weigh in for those participating on her blog HERE. :)
And if you're browsing around online this weekend, check out Kiki La Rue. It's an online boutique filled with lots of stylish and unique pieces. Everyone is loving the tunics and piko tops right now. Kiki La Rue also offers plus size clothing and fun accessories. I promise that you will get personalized service and a real person on the other end of the phone. Visit the website HERE.
Happy Friday, Friends!
I'm SO JEALOUS! I want to come run in caves!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your run Holly! Can't wait to see pics! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou're run sounds fun! You beauties have a blast :) Catch that little debbie!!!
ReplyDeleteAre you doing the Groundhog Run? I have done that race a couple times. And how do you run in St. Louis if you hate the cold?! If the weather is anything like Kansas City it is effing freezing!
ReplyDeleteY'all are so much fun!! :)
ReplyDeleteThis DietBet sounds pretty interesting....
I can't wait to hear about you running in caves. Have fun, you'll do great. I may have to check out this "DietBet" I need some motivation
ReplyDeleteBalls the caves sound awesome! So cool! Have fun!
ReplyDelete60 degrees is chilly, I would agree. But it is a hell of a lot better than the 20-30 degree weather we have been having. I've never been in the caves before, but it should be a lot of fun! Relatively speaking of course since we are talking about a six mile race here.
ReplyDeleteYAY DARCI Happy Birthday - headed over to say it now. I will be joining the DietBet - it's on. Have so much fun this weekend. I can't wait to hear all about it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your race Holly! The Diet Bet sounds great!
ReplyDeleteGood luck girl!! I've been wantin to do a diet bet too. This may just have to be the one I do!
ReplyDeleteSo help me out.....I weigh 130-135 depending on the time of the month and if I've been scarfing enough food for a pack of polar bears. What would 4% of my body weight be? I just might want to do this.
ReplyDeleteIt would be between 5-6 pounds. Totally doable. Join us!
DeleteGood luck on your big race tomorrow, bundle up and do great! I know you can do it! Have a wonderful weekend friend!
ReplyDeleteBahaha you should have told me I totally have a rationed box of pumpkin delights I could have mailed one for you to tape on her! BAHAHAHAHAH you can do it lady!
ReplyDeleteHave fun Holly! A great goal is to just finish! I'll be thinking of your 60 degree weather while it gets in the teens up in herrrr
ReplyDeleteSO excited about another round of the Dietbet!!! I'm getting closer to my next "milestone" weight and this is just what I need to motivate me to get there! Have fun with Darci! You guys are going to be hilarious!
