One run is all I’ve managed in the past week {that’s not including this morning’s run}. Through no fault of my own, or anybody else’s, it’s just been a busy week. But the thing that surprised me while I wasn’t running was how much I thought about running. A lot. One of those thoughts was “I need a new running/workout top”…which lead me to this:
A T-shirt and a pair of scissors. This t-shirt is a special one. This is the t-shirt I got for running the 10K in Manchester back in 2010. I raised money for The Christie Charity during the time my brother was having his op and treatment there. So it wasn’t one that I wanted to get rid of…yet it wasn’t one I liked to run in either. It’s just a little on the big side.
So I cut around the neck line and then cut the sleeves off following the sleeve-line about an inch or so in.
After I decided on the length of t-shirt I wanted, I cut in a couple of inches along from here, and then I cut from the centre of the front up to this same point. I did this on both sides. I then cut a slit straight up the front of the triangle. Turning the t-shirt over, I cut along the back length line.
I tied a knot with the two front bits, stood back and did a little jig.
And suddenly had thoughts about cutting up some of Paul’s rock t-shirts and pairing them with skinny jeans and heels. He’s got enough t-shirts, I’m sure he won’t miss a few…
