I made a decision to take a few days of from my running and let my legs heal.  My left shin has been giving me a little trouble when I am running down hill, so I figured a few days off from running would do me some good.

Like an addict, when you don't feed your addiction you get withdrawals.  All you think about is when you will get your next fix.  So as I am sitting here on the couch, I am getting the antsy feeling and all I can think about is:

Truth is I WOULD KNOW!  My shin would remind me about a mile in that I should be resting it. If my shin could talk I am sure it would say something along the lines of "hey stupid we need to rest take us home!"

So instead I am surfing around on the net looking at shoes, races, training exercises and then I came across something that looked rather intriguing.  I think this would grab some attention :)

These flashy leave nothing to the eye tights are made by Black Milkand cost $75 plus S&H, but regular running tights run about the same price.   I noticed on the web site that when things are sold out they are "gone forever" so I wouldn't want to wait too long. With summer right around the corner, I am not sure how many more times I would be able to wear these, but it sure would be a lot of fun! Perhaps at the next hash or the Denver Marathon!

 
How about you?  Do you have any "flashy" fun running clothes that make you stand out?  If so what are they?


”I run in the snow, rain, wind and heat. I run until I cannot run anymore then I run some more. I run thru the blur of tears, the aches and pains and then I keep going. I have more running clothes than some running stores, I know Fartklet does not mean like it sounds. I go to bed at 9pm; I get up early just to do it all over again. Why do I do this? Because I am a runner and that's who I am"
