Nah, I’m rowing in the Head of the Charles, the weekend after the Bay State Marathon. I plan to start running again and work towards a marathon for spring tho’. Maybe the Freescale Marathon in February. Are you gonna do the Bay State?
Hahaha. Me do the BayState. wipes tears from eyes.
No, seriously, I am doing the Tufts 10K that week, and am hoping to do a half marathon in the spring. It was pretty runnercentric of me to equate race with running, I see that now. I just got excited because I live in Boston and all.
HEY NOW!
I don’t want to hear any more disrespectful talk about Gauchos!!

In the same vein as WordMan …
OK, NurseCarmen, I just gotta know. What did Argentinian cowboys ever do to you? 
[continuing hijack away from quesitonable but trendy fashion]10k’s are really fun and the perfect length. Half marathon’s are really boring. So naturally, I plan to punish myself and do a marathon. :dubious:
Hey, if you live in Boston and you just happen to be down by the Charles on raceday, we’re gonna be in race 7 at about 1 pm on Saturday, Women’s Club Eights. We’ll be wearing the Texas Flag uniforms and I’ll be the redhead in the bow of the boat…
Well yah, but that’s because you’re an Uber Fox. On us poor mortals, they tend to look dumb. Even us tall mortals. 
From one UberFox to another, I say you should give them another whirl. Yes, some of them (the more flowy ones, for example) do tend to look a little, er, weird, but the more tailored ones aren’t so bad. Paired with a fitted or shrunken blazer, it’s a really smart, albeit trendy, look.
I must admit that the outfit that you linked to looked pretty good. Perhaps I’ve only seen the rediculous “Cape on each leg” style.
Holy carp. I just saw my first pair of Gauchos yesterday. Looked like bellbottom capri pants. Yikes almight, but that’s an unflattering look… “Hey!!! I’ve got KNEES!!!”
I guess it’s one way to keep people from looking at your ass…
