The GOTR Easter Bunny

The spring training season is winding down.  It sure has flown by fast but it has been so much fun and I wouldn't trade it for anything.  This past Wednesday we had a very hilly run from Ault Park with a training group cookout after.  Of course this was the perfect opportunity for a costume!  A big thank you to my GOTR family for sponsoring Wednesday's run- Erin, Carter, Mel and Jessica- you are the best!  They have been so supportive during this training and with all of my outfits.  I couldn't ask for a better group of people to share running and GOTR with.  So, this outfit became a combination.  I was an Easter Bunny with a band jacket on?!?!  It made for a great costume!  I got lots of looks and great comments.....especially about the tail.  Erin showed up with the bunny costume, Mel came with the band jacket and sombrero for a mariachi band costume and Jessica's costume never made it there (I think she was stuck in traffic).  So we combined the bunny with the jacket for the lovely outfit you see here.  Don't worry about Jessica's missing outfit, if she still has it I will wear it to another run!  I do think the best part of the evening was when an adorable little girl just started starring at me.  Her mom says, "She wants to talk to the Easter Bunny".  So, I bent down with my basket and she took a piece of candy then quickly decided she wanted another!  Then of course she had to give the Easter Bunny a kiss.  It was so sweet!  Overall the costume was a hit, especially the chocolate and GOTR information I handed out after the run.  Thank you again GOTR family- you rock!
