Bling βœ¨πŸ…βœ¨

β€’51 Replies

My Race at Your Pace August run 50 miles challenge medal and certificate arrived. The medal is the size of a dinner plate (for those of you on the spectrum, I’m applying hyperbole here!) Am disappointed with the compression top though, as it’s white and I don’t ever wear white.

The big question...have you got anything to wear with it?

Well done Flick. I'm not jealous, honest.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

The top or the bling? I shall give the top to my daughter. And I’ll be wearing the bling to Sainsbury’s and to walk the dogs of course πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Yeah I didn’t bother with the top this time as I didnt like the colour. September’s one is a nice red, and they are good quality tops . I have the May one , which was blue. But you need to go up a size as they are very tight and I could hardly breathe in the medium. Had to change for a large .

β€’ in reply tolimberlou

It looked black in the picture :( It fits fine, not tight at all, in fact probably not tight enough for a compression top, but i just don't like white on me. also its very see through, so my shock absorber bras would show through as one is black and the other two are bright colours, though not sure if that would matter.

I get confused about sizing. Is medium 12 or 14? I need a 10/12

You prob need a small then. I am a strange shape being a 16-18 top and a 10-12 bottom. And the middle has a mind of its own. The large fits me and the small fits my 8-10 top daughter.

β€’ in reply tolimberlou

that would explain why a medium was tight. You have the perfect figure, shapely bosoms and slim bottom :)

Well done. The weather is changing... that white top will look great with a running vest over it!

Than you. Hmm, not sure about that, it's short sleeved anyway.

Your bling is as bright as your leggings Flick. Well done on your challenge. Don’t worry about your white top, you can wear it under your running jacket in the rain later.

Fab bling! Well done Flick. That's a great achievement,

β€’ in reply toIrishprincess

Thank you. i wonder if the 75 miler is even bigger! You could serve a four course meal on mine :)

β€˜Fraid not a Flick I think they’re all that big. I got my 100 mile dinner plate and the top. Yes, it’s tight but that is what compression tops need to be or they don’t work. Mine are worn after runs (in the house) and on cold days under other tops.

β€’ in reply toAnnieW55

But mine isn’t tight. I should have ordered a small. It’s the colour I don’t like x

Not sure why you couldn’t see that it was a white shirt - a bit like that dress thing a while ago. Mine won’t stay that colour for too long, it will soon be grey πŸ˜„.

β€’ in reply toAnnieW55

I’m not sure either. I did look very early on and wonder if they changed the colour, maybe couldn’t get black. I don’t see how I could have made a mistake like that

Well done Flick!! I did the same challenge so quite excited to see the bling. Hope you're still enjoying your speed work. I really do believe it works and actually although it is very hard (well for me it is) it is also lots of fun and very satisfying. :) :)

β€’ in reply toLorijay

Thank you and well done for completing the challenge too. I did a short run today and made myself run faster but no fartleks as I had a bad night and not enough sleep ☹️

whow Flick love the bling ! Congrats on your great achievementπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘,you’ve done really well mate and worked so hard. Is there going to be a frame for your smashing certificate and will you hang it in pride of place?

πŸ’πŸ’for you ❀️

β€’ in reply to

Thank you xxx Nah, it's in the kitchen drawer. I have a certificate for completing a three year Druid course and a certificate for completing two years study of Vedic astrology and they're stowed away somewhere too. It was fun to do the challenge as it was motivating as regards pushing myself a bit with the running, and I'm tickled pink about the enormous bling, but i'm not a very achievement orientated person :)

Nor me ! I just run because I enjoy it and it keeps me fit aswell as a good destress after worky things🀣🀣🀣
