We don't have time to actually make a bag out of it, but we can cut some kits.  Here is the fabric that is in the grey kit:

Elvira at the Track

Oh…so much really important stuff here…where to begin, where to begin…

1)  About a year ago, maybe, I was heading out of the locker room to run and I noticed a lady with all her fashion paraphernalia standing in front of a mirror.  She was, like, froofing up her hair, and applying lipstick, and I literally walked through a cloud of perfume as I walked past her and out the door.  I guess I just assumed that she was post-workout and on her way somewhere.  A few minutes later, as I’m running, she comes walking out onto the track.  She had,
