I think you should wear a birthday cake hat

I think you should eat cake and run at the same time. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........cake

I ran a 10 mile race (my first double digit run ever) the day before my 35th bday. I didn't do anything special.

I like any suggestion that involves cake.

My birthday is on St. Patrick's day, I was going to do our local Shamrock 5k complete with a birthday tiara. I vote not dorky.

Also you share a birthday with my mom, I knew I liked you.

Cake will be involved, obvi.

I was thinking of wearing my Divas DC tiara and having a shirt with a piece of cake on it? I'd eat cake during, but 1. 3.1 miles is not enough time to each sufficient cake and 2. I may have a shot at a PR for this. So no cake during, lol.

But think of the race recap: vtcupcake eats cake in the middle of a 5k and gets a massive PR!  That's the stuff of H&F legends.  LEGENDS!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the idea of a cake hat or shirt!

[libbygrl109]

My birthday is the day before - early happy birthday to you!I like the shirt, but then again, I like to keep myself as inconspicuous as possible when I run. For the most bang for your buck, go with the hat.

I ran a race on my bday last weekend. I wanted to do something fun to wear for it but ended up not which I'm glad I didn't as a freak rain shower, high winds and a cooooold front came thru right at the start and I ended up wearing my jacket the whole race with wet head. but they did announce my bday as I crossed the finish since my h let them know while I was out running so that was fun!

[mrsjthompson]

Wear the shirt AND the hat!

I ran with a friend on her birthday - a whole group of us actually. She wore a tiara, a birthday sash, and a whole special outfit. But she's kind of like that.
I say go all out. You always see funny costumes at races.

Cake Hat

[shauni27]

I agree that you need to do something so fun. then not only are you running a 5K on your birthday, but everyone will wish you a happy birthday! Although I do not think I could run in that hat, it would fall off my head.

Oh I like the idea of a birthday sash in addition to the tiara!
