I really wish they would choose that option for more summer races! I rarely wear sunglasses while running but I always wear a cap which keeps my face shaded...but I haven't thought about wearing sunglasses to keep eye wrinkles at bay! Every little bit helps!<br /><br />Good luck this weekend!findingfabulousatfiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13386356418087346612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-11996937769911407612017-06-16T20:26:56.022-05:002017-06-16T20:26:56.022-05:00I do love smartwool socks!

But I guess it doesn't matter if it's summer or winter, I always have a hat on to provide a bit of shade from the sun.<br /><br />And when it's too hot for me to bear, I opt for the treadmill. But the weather is perfect for the pool which is where I'll be 'running' for the next few weeks until my foot heals.Elaine @myRUNexperimenthttp://myrunexperiment.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-83028260230472251652017-06-14T19:26:07.961-05:002017-06-14T19:26:07.961-05:00Thanks!!
