'I've got a flat tire'. It's 6pm on Saturday evening and I'm just getting ready to drive to London for a friend's party, except the AA man who comes out to put the spare tire on says I can't drive more than 50mph and shouldn't drive too far on the temporary wheel....
I am obsessed. Seriously. I walked into the J Crew shop in a mall in Atlanta and walked out nearly $200 lighter, armed with some sports wear that is exactly my style. Seriously... Navy √ Spotty √ Stripey √ The fact that it's two of my ultimate fave brands doesn't...

...in my age group. My plan had been to use a local race while I was in Atlanta as part of my long run, however apparently October is not the month to run here as I found it hard to track down a longer race. A 5K in Dunwoody, a suburb nearish to where we were staying...
