Getting ready for Giving Tuesday!

This week Trot with Spot joined with Giving Tuesday to start changing the way people think about the holidays, particular to the Thanksgiving Black Friday/Cyber Monday time. How about adding Giving Tuesday? It's a day to give to charities, large and small, and we're all over it. What a fantastic concept. Check out the full website here: http://givingtuesday.org/

As we're getting ready for Giving Tuesday, we've expanded our inventory and designs! Very exciting news. Loving the inspirations from others and the support we've gotten so far. We may be a small organization, but every little bit counts in the desire to make this world a better place :) http://trotwithspot.spreadshirt.com/

Training this week went well also. Tonight I'll just need to go on a short run and do some strength workouts so that I have earned my grilled cheese. It will be my last grilled cheese Sunday in Namibia so I am looking forward to it. Next week I am hosting a Thanksgiving dinner here to celebrate the giving season. Woot!

One of the more important running tips I reconnected with yesterday was never to doubt your body. If you go into a 5 mile run worrying about whether or not you'll finish it, you'll be miserable the whole time. Just focus on the run itself, the joy of running, and the surrounding/music you have around you. Be positive and trust your legs!

Here are some pictures from my week this week, as well as the new designs.
