Year 2, Week 4 (Days 388-394)

Bow Tie Spotlight: This week I want to take a moment to highlight one of my own bow ties - not for the sake of self-promotion, because sewing bow ties is more of a hobby than another form income for me - but for the sake of inviting anyone in the NYC area to come train with me. That's right - I'm talking about the Zombiefit bow tie. If you've signed up for a GoRuck/ S.E.R.E. or a Spartan race and are looking for ways to prepare - check out our trainer's blog here. Come out and train with us. 

This week's featured sponsors:

Day 215

As the weather peaked at above 90 degrees today (although the A/C units were keeping things interesting where I spent most of my day) I decided to stroll about town in this get up. My favorite part - for once - actually isn't the bow, but this small piece of fabric that a colleague of mine brought me back all the way from Japan. It's likely enough to construct a clip-on bow but for today it worked so well with my shirt that I couldn't keep it tucked away any longer. This one's for you, Val!

The bow tie on the other hand is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. It was gifted by the nice folks at Speak Louder. Please check out their collection of fab bows by clicking here.

Day 170

Five more days of school. I have a feeling this week is going to get away from us rather quickly, which is no complaint at all. I'm just worried we'll (the collective team of teachers everywhere, I mean) miss out on what it means to really finish well. Here's hoping that you're running through the finish line and not just to it.

Today's bow was gifted from the cool folks over at Speak Louder. Check out their awesome stuff here.

Day 131

So remember how unhappy I was about scoring? Well, it turns out that perhaps I wasn't meant to score at all. I hit traffic on the way to the scoring site and arrived 30 minutes after training had started and was quickly turned away at the door. I can't believe I sat in traffic for over an hour just to find out I had to head on back to my school. Everything happens for a reason. This I know.

Today's bow was gifted from Spain via the great folks at Speak Louder. It's an amazing floral design, no? Check out their etsy shop here!

Day 30

It's about two weeks until my birthday, kids! Actually, it's felt like I've celebrated a birthday everyday for the last couple of weeks because I've been blessed with a bow tie package nearly everyday. I'm still holding out for folks to start looking for other ways to donate to the cause - like, say, check out the Achievement First site for more info! 

Today's bow comes by way of Margarita G. all the way from Spain at Speak Louder. Please check out her collection of Spanish beauties.
