Super Heroes: All Washed Up!
“Ching-Ching,” goes that super hero bling. After staggering up the beach from the 1K ocean swim at NiteMoves, I begin fumbling with my sneakers in order to start the 5K run when I have to pause to rub my salt infused eyes. Gold crown, red cape, blue suit, and those ever powerful wrist bangles are striding up the Mesa. Wonder Woman, aka Liz Groom, is out of the ocean and off in a flash. Lynda Carter didn’t even look this good coming out of the pool in red moisture whip Maybeline.
“Yeah Baby,” shouts guy on bike pushing pedals along side her. Up ahead, moms with babes pause and kids on skates crane their necks to see her streak by. Maybe it’s Maybeline, maybe it’s bangle bling, but I’ve got to catch this wonder woman if for nothing else but to declare, “You’re awesome!”
Several other heroines bound about the course and I am naming them Mrs. Captain Incredible, aka Desa, Wonder Girl, aka Andrea, and Super Liz-OH!, aka Liz. Perhaps for a second, I might have passed for cat-woman in my wetsuit, but as I peeled that off to my boring shorts and sports bra, I will have to accept Plain Jane.
These girls are coming at you live every Wednesday night from Leadbetter and trust me, super heroes never sported the wet look better! Amazingly, they drink the beer after.
On a seperate point, why am I the only one with a naked child covered in ice cream after the kids run? Don’t really answer that!
