I recently discovered PicMonkey and today played with it for the first time. It is so easy to use.  Here are some pictures from my run today.

 Although some pictures it really didn't do justice to I though, like this one

 I also did this one real quick with just my three most recent race pictures.

Have you tried PicMonkey?  I usually don't mess with pictures much, but this was really easy I may do it some more.  I may even do some with my kids instead of just me :)

My run today overall felt good but it was so windy and hilly that at times it was a little hard to just relax and enjoy the run.  I don't mind hills so much, but the wind just really annoys me.

This week is a cut back week on my training, my long run will only be 12 miles. Then I will build back up and then...TAPER TIME!

Which would you rather have nasty winds or constant hills?

  2. I just found out that Instagram was out for Droids so I am playing with that! I may have to figure out if PicMonkey is on droid too!

    Constant hills for me!

  4. I was just looking at picmonkey today too. Seems pretty useful to make collages. I like instagram and hipstamatic for my iPhone too.

    I'd much prefer hills to wind. Can't breathe in extreme headwinds.

  9. I am going to check out Pic Monkey. Thanks!

    I think if the wind was behind me that would be okay, otherwise I pick hills!

  13. I've used Diptic a bunch. It's so fun. Although I'm really enjoying Instagram now. I don't want to pick hills or winds :-) But, I think I'd pick hills. I hate wind.

  14. I've never used that but you have convinced me! I want to be able to post more pics without it being a long line of pics! I would say wind...but then again it is all hills around here so maybe that's why!

  15. Awesome pictures Chirsty! It is simply beautiful in your neck of the woods and you always look freaking awesome in your race pictures. I am jealous!

    I would absolutely take hills over wind any day of the week. I HATE wind!

  16. Love the collages! I just started experimenting with Picmonkey. That is where I created my new header and I love it. Pretty easy too:) As you know, I am always envious of the pics of your runs. So beautiful:)

  17. Haven't heard of PIcmonkey but it looks interesting! I'll have to check it out. Your pictures look amazing. I think I'd take hills over wind but it's a close sucky tie.

  19. Constant hills for sure! The wind can be so powerful out here that it takes your breath away.
