In Short(s)

As usual, winter became summer in Calgary in the space of few days. There was nothing subtle about it. Last week it snowed, this week it’s green and balmy. We’ve crossed the barrier. It’s officially road construction season.

Oh, mine, summer!

Ouch, shorts. Yes, I was the only person in the crowded park yesterday still sporting a pair of long sweats when I ran. And it did feel a bit hot. (But I’ve got the second wind yesterday - AWSOME experience. A digression, I know, but I am still smiling when I think about it. V. pleasent indeed.)

But shorts? If you’ve read any of my posts, you’ve most likely come across my mentioning my thunderous thighs. That’s the last part of my body I would like to showcase in public. I hoped they would be decent with all the weight I lost, but they still look pretty darn heavy and unsightly. I was running behind one girl for a while yesterday, and I was ready to drool, I envied her her thighs so much!

I’ve never owned a pair of shorts I was comfortable in. Or liked.  Or felt like I looked good in. I have a major short aversion.

 So, what I am going to do, is to put one of those shorts my mom keeps giving me on (because she is my mother, why else would anyone give you clothes you repeatedly expressed a dislike of?), and I am going run and excersise till I can put a pair on, and don’t think about them, thunderous thighs. It’s them or shorts! The battle is on!
