      I don't know about nerdy, but I like girly running things.  Skirts, pink shoes, purple socks, etc...  Inknburn is my favorite.  I'd only run in that if my wallet would allow it.

        Running for TJ because he can't.

                As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

                    I think it's one of those things that has gel in it and you put it in the fridge and it stays cold. Cool They need to make one that is cape size

                                Do they have one that you soak in gasoline, stick it near a match, and then wear it to stay warm?
