I haven't even signed up for a Halloween or Thanksgiving run yet. And if all the cards play right, I'll be signing up for an awesome 3-part night race in October with some friends.
The breakdown: 2 5Ks, 2 10Ks, a 5-miler, 2 trail runs, 4 obstacle course races, 3 triathlons, a fun run with my kids, and whatever you call the Tap N Run (a 4K race where you chug a beer at each 1K stop).
That also doesn't count the 3.5ish mile race around the lakes that I did with Ben, because we didn't get a bib, and if you don't get a bib, it's NOT A RACE.
How on earth does one capture the memories of all these awesome races for perpetuity?
I'm a TERRIBLE scrapbooker. (Hence, this blog. It's my way of making up for the fact that I couldn't scrapbook my way out of a paper bag.)
SO, I let someone else do the scrapbooking for me.
Enter, Laura Elaine Designs. She makes running scrapbooks. I buy them. In my last order, she custom-made me one that had the cover I wanted. She asked what color scheme I wanted, but I had no answer, because I don't much care about colors, perhaps being one of the reasons I am so bad at scrapbooking.
I glue my bibs and pictures into the scrapbook, add in some detail about the race, the date, my finishing time, etc.
Voila. A super-cool scrapbook that took almost zero time and effort on my part. (Aside from, you know, running the races.)
