For this week’s Soup du Jour, I’m joining Mama Kat’s Vlogging Workshop. One of the prompts offered this week asked to share your favorite makeup. Therefore, I took the opportunity to share my stunner runner trade secrets: what makeup I use during races and the importance to look great for photographers at races.
Ironically, while I’m talking about the importance of looking good, I snort right into the camera. Plus, there’s an occasional nose itch. Yeah, that’s attractive. Hey, I have allergies, people! I’m just keeping real.
Real beautiful.
Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful.
Nose scratching, snortingly beautiful.

Living life as a mom on the run between races and raising three beautiful, brilliant children (ages 11, 7, 2). Before a blissful life as a SAHM, I taught elementary school for 7 years. In 2007, I discovered a passion for running. I'm currently training for a fourth marathon as well as a variety of other races and triathlons. In my spare time, I am the lead organizer for the Tampa Bay Bloggers on Facebook. I'm currently training for two marathons as well as a variety of other races and triathlons. From start to finish, I'm a mom on the run trying maintain an easy pace through it all.

I noticed yesterday at Airheads how pretty you looked…even after we worked out! I am one of those who always goes totally barefaced to races or to the gym. I just feel like I sweat like a fiend and I’d have makeup dripping off. But you definitely have it down!
Denise says:
Awwwww…Aren’t you sweet?! Thank you! Yes, it’s important to look beautiful when you trip and fall on your ass.

Jina says:
I adore this vlog (and you)! You do always look amazing at races. Thanks for the tips!
Denise says:
You are so sweet! xox
meghan @ little girl in the big world says:
Haha! This was a great post! Loved it. I’ve never worn makeup to a race; maybe I’ll try it out at my next shorter race.
Denise says:
When you do, you will think me for the tip. You will never go faceless again! I promise!
beka @ rebecca roams says:
Agreed! You are always so fresh faced in all your race pics! I am jealous -I look a hot mess! The only thing left after I wipe my face 38498475987x is waterproof mascara
Laura says:
OMG! I’m LOL-ing over the eyebrow thing! The Italian in me unfortunately has blessed me with super brows! But, I ALWAYS wear mascara to every since race, it’s a weird sort of ritual. Hopefully I’m not looking like Tammy Faye Baker
Denise says:
I feel you over the eyebrow thing. Myself being Hispanic and Italian, I can grow one hell of a unibrow before waxing! LOL Waterproof is a MUST! Get some!
Naila Moon says:
So that explains why you look great in your after the race photos!
Jenny says:
I just need a makeover. I never wear makeup, just a dab of lip gloss if I’m lucky, or maybe I should say if the people that are looking at me are lucky. You always look amazing!
Denise says:
You are so sweet! Girl, get yourself to Sephora. They’ll show you what to do!
