Fun times as always talking with the Girls on Good Things Utah about Halloween Running! If you missed the segment, click on the link below for ideas of running friendly costumes for any Halloween run! Get in the spirit of the Season!!!
Fall is one of the best times of year for Running!! The
weather is perfect, the mountains are beautiful and the air is crisp and clean!
And of course, the holidays are coming up so there are lots of fun events that
include running around them!! Yes! We are talking Halloween Running!! So time to grab your friends and your
Halloween Costumes and get ready for the run of your lives! Today we want to talk about ways to spruce up your running outfit and “dress-up”
if you don’t really feel like running a 5K or Half marathon (13.1 miles folks)
in your costume that you have saved for the big day! And, as you know, it is
cold in the fall mornings and some costumes may need a little extra!
1)
Fun
Arm Warmers. These are easy to make with a fun pair of tube socks. You
simply cut the toe off and a little hole around the heel of the sock for your
thumb and you are ready to rock!!
2)
Leg
Warmers. Like the arm warmers, find
some fun and funky tube socks and rock those babies. They will add color and
some flare and who doesn’t want that.
We will be present at all these events so who is going to join us?? Which race are you running scared??? Haha!
3)
Simple
costumes. Add ears, a tail and
become a cat. Add some horns and become a devil. Sport some fairy wings, a tutu
and BOOM, you are now a fairy. With all of these, you can still wear your comfy
running clothes under them. Below is all our kids in their "simple" costumes!!
4)
Make-up.
You are running and will sweat so don’t wear anything that will smudge. Some
sassy lipstick, even throw some eyelashes on, add color in your hair, etc.
These
races are meant to bring out the Halloween spirit, so be creative and if you
want to rock your costume, do it. If not, rock something and have fun running!!
And bring along your family and friends. Most of the races have shorter
distances so even the littlest ones of your family can participate in some way,
even if it is being pushed in a stroller! Some fun races are the following:
