Bargain shopping?! Yeah, right.

They say running is the cheapest sport.
It's not.
My dad and I have been debating where to purchase my track clothes (American Eagle vs. Modell's or Sports Authority) and really, it doesn't matter where we buy them. It's still going to cost us a fortune. Sneakers aside--and I realize those are meant to be expensive--it's pretty darn expensive to run, when you're only supposed to need yourself, some clothes, and some good shoes to keep you running well. Dad made a deal that if we go to American Eagle, I pay for half. I can't! I'm broke! I didn't realize track would cause a strain on my wallet and my feet.
Grrr. Tomorrow I'll be out there shopping for all this stuff I need. I'll keep you posted.
Love,
Caiti

Keeping track with Caiti!

Hey! I'm Caiti and you probably know me from my other blog (it's in a slightly different format). But this one is strictly for my running, since I'm starting track March 10. I've been reading up on different running sites and it's recommended to keep a blog about your running. I decided to do just that. :-) I'll be posting my times every...single...day, and I'm assuring you it'll probably be boring. But it's a solid way for me to keep track of what I'll actually be doing every single day after school. I'll also be bringing you my news, and reviews on gear and drinks and energy bars and all that good stuff.
I better get to bed. Apparently good runners get lots of sleep, too. This is going to be one rough season!
Love,
Caiti
