Since my re-entry into the world of running, I would consider myself a solo running. I enjoy the solitude, the quiet time just for me.

Disclaimer: The following post is a product review of a customized tank top provided by My Race Ragz. I was not provided with additional compensation for this post. As always, all opinions are my own. Over the years, I toyed around with the idea of creating a t-shirt or tank top with my blog logo. I never really got around to it until My Race Ragz provided me with the opportunity to customize my own shirt! The process was incredibly easy {Read More}
