I have no problem being in a bikini at the beach, but running in a bra just feels wrong somehow...

Have you seen that beach body thing on MTV/VH1 where they count down the best and worst beach bodies and they talk about how some people just have high self esteem? I am really worried about that for this weekends underpants run. <br /><br />I wish I could go watch Cedar Point. I wish it wasn't so far from KY! I know so many people who will be there. Instead, I am doing a mini tri in Oldham County. It is the day before an Oly in Louisville, so it will be pretty low key.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624297955496298110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577879543257460285.post-39174354285561854432011-08-22T13:58:01.030-04:002011-08-22T13:58:01.030-04:00Hubby and I are doing Cedar Point, but we won'...Hubby and I are doing Cedar Point, but we won't be driving up until Thursday night/Friday morning.

Horrible body image is my middle name. Only one thing worse than horrible body image, being overheated and having a horrible body image. Heather and I always run shirtless in the heat. H is always skinny, me, I vary depending on the month haha. I don't care, I let my man boobs and stomach hang out, let people make fun of me... I use it as motivation to get back in shape haha.<br /><br />LASTLY, ironically... Heather and I are going to be up at Cedar Point on Sept. 11th too. Even more funny... we will be racing!!!!!
