On the other hand, people are gross & do some dumb things. I actually tried a new place a year or so ago through Groupon. I liked her so much I go now every month. It's such a great bit of me time. And considering 1 hour + tip = $40 I don't feel too bad about spending it.Jessie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11217522564709638588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-31255046028502837342016-07-28T00:52:02.587-04:002016-07-28T00:52:02.587-04:00I was soooooo hoping for more clarification on the...I was soooooo hoping for more clarification on the underwear issue... ;)Laura @ Sprint 2 the Tablehttp://www.sprint2thetable.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930457134828005115.post-5161925250041320082016-07-27T18:53:56.397-04:002016-07-27T18:53:56.397-04:00Great advice!

I am sure if I hadn't started about 10 weeks out, I would've been miserable the whole time. Instead I got my (Disney) PR that race.
