Socks & Registration

Well, I spent money on tri last night, so it's time to start keeping track!
I bought 3 pairs of Gold Toe sweat wicky, no rise socks from Target for, I believe $5.99.....no choice but new in the sock dept.

I also almost bought one of those ipod armbands. I have heretofore run with the ipod in the weird pocket on my running shorts, and kept it from banging around by rolling my shorts a couple times (a la Catholic School boxers-under-skirts) and then sticking it in the rolled band, but it needs adjustment more frequently than multi-mile runs will suffer. The other revolutionary thing I've done is run without music. And think. About life.

The armband was $14.99, and though I wanted to apply the "If I spend on it I'll feel guilty and actually use it technique," my inner nerd/Luddite decided I will make my own....I'm thinking at this point, knee sock/sweatband + pocket + zipper should do the trick. Oh, but not in the rain. Hmm.
I'm also tempted to just outsource this to Christy, and give her a sense of mission.
But would yarn be super gross?

Anyway.
$5.99 so far!
Oh also $100 registration.

UGH
