I thought it'd be fun to do a "Me, Right Now" Challenge. Let's embrace who we are when we aren't all done up. Let's show ourselves right now, at this very moment. You may be reading this late at night, early in the morning, or mid-afternoon. It doesn't matter when it is, just do it now, whatever time it may be.
So here I am, about to finish up my blogging, still a little sweaty from my run, sportin' what's left of some minimal make-up that was applied at 5:30 a.m. this morning, and in desperate need of a shower.
See, I'm being extra honest. I didn't even wipe off the water marks on my mirror! Just ignore them (like I do)!
So, will you take the challenge? Take a pic of yourself right now, just as you are, while reading this blog. Now, some of you might be looking your best, which is okay too. Post it anyway because we wanna see you, right now!
Leave a comment to let us know if you did it so we can all go and check it out! Come on, I dare ya!
***Edited to include: I'm trying Mr. Linky for the first time. I'm not sure if it is installed correctly but try to click it and add a link to your site if you decide to take the challenge. If it doesn't work, you can just leave the comment to direct us. Thanks!

As SOON as I get home, I'll take a picture!! How fun!
BTW, your pic is too cute - I look like DEATH after running!! ha! Maybe THAT'S what I'll do - a picture after running my 5 miler tonight! :)
I will when I get home...I hate pictures of me :(
no fair - you look really good in that pic :)
Yeah, umm that's just not fair... I have posted a few pics from the past weekend "AS IS" and let me just say, I don't look half as good as you... I look like a boy without makeup on.. hahaha.... You can tell you have natural beauty!! :)
ummm you look HOT in your pic, i on the other hand, do not...
If I looked as good as you do, I might do that too, ha!
I did it and I did the Mr. Linky too!
:)
Um, you pretty much look amazing. and that's AFTER a run?
needless to say I'll spare you guys a pic of me after my POWER class... trust me it isn't a sight that needs to be shared :)
YOU my dear look amazing tho!
:) *added to Mr.Linky*
make today great!
I'll do it when I get home today! But I did post what I considered to be a not-so-flattering picture of myself last week. I even captioned it "me and my greasy self"!
GAH how do you always look sooooooo pretty??!! Its nauseating, really. I look like death runneth over when I get done running. ;)
Girl....if I look half as good as you do after running I would put a picture of myself. But I don't. So I won't. :-) And my battery is dead. O yeah and I don't run.
I'm playing too!! Except I just got home from work, and you still look better than me. No Fair.
Okay...I posted my RIGHT NOW pic! Great idea :) And WAY too much fun!
I don't think this post is fair...you still look adorable, even after a run. You should see this sweaty mess after a run - yikes! I'll post a pic in a jiffy!
All right, I did it and posted to Mr. Linky. I'm not sure this fair though, because you look great!
Oh my, you look so cute!! I wish I looked like that after a run! I look like doo doo (that's a nice way of saying it!) after I work out!
Very cute idea!
Ok, Ok, I'm not good with peer pressure and I gave into it. I posted a picture of myself, because you made me feel all prideful for not doing so! :-)
Cute blog..first time visitor!
Great picture with the camera!

I took two pictures - one straight after work and one right after running 5 miles - frizzy hair and all...but didn't have time to post last night - so...this afternoon I PROMISE to post em - they're hilarious - and kinda scary!!!
Ok, sorry for the multiple comments...but I did it and used Mister Linky.
I love your post about me right now... I am going to join in! I found your blog from Amy's blog Chapters. You family and blog are absolutely adorable! PS- I agree with everyone else... you look great after runnin!happy thurs!!
This is random, but have you always been a runner? I'd love to start - any advice?
I'll post a pic tonight when I get home from the gym. That should be a doozy! and PS you look awesome!
I took your challenge! I am here via Kristen's blog :)
to answer the question above....I've been running consistently for about 12 years now. I ran track a year or two in high school but never ran outside of practice or meets. But then my senior year, I didn't run track and just ran on my own time. I loved it so much more that way. I really got into running in college and have been doing it ever since.
My advice....don't push yourself to run so much that you start to dread it or hate it. Run when you can, and it is okay to take walk breaks when you need to. And try to run outside rather than a treadmill, the scenery is much better! Also, in my opinion, music is a must!
Thanks girl! I'm gonna start trying it out...baby steps :) I think it'll be a great way to burn some calories.
I ran last night and my legs are killing me! I walk a lot but I don't run so I guess that tells me I need to more huh??? ok i'm at work so i will take a picture when I get home and post it! :)
you look good after a run!
i took the challenge.... :o)
