For three weeks in September, I captured whatever I was wearing to run/walk that day. Some looks are better than others. I took 19 photos over a period of roughly 3 weeks. My photo skills didn't get much better over time, but at least I know how to use the self-timer feature on my camera now. The dogs make an appearance in every photo! How funny is that?!? I'm posting just a sampling here.
Some skirts are good for running, some are only good for walking. This is one that I have deemed a walking skirt.
Generic black on black. See a lot of that at races. Nothing wrong with it, but not a good combo if your cheering squad is trying to find you in a crowd. I learned that as a spectator. Of course, nobody is trying to pick me out in a crowd most mornings, so I wear it too.
Here is one of my favorites. I need to keep this in mind for an upcoming half-marathon. It's comfy and the lime green should make it easy to be spotted.
This next photo is from my recent 5K day. They gave us flags at the finish line and I was still carrying mine around when I got home.
Including this last one because it features one of my pairs of Moeben sleeves. These are a size small, which is too tight. So I took out the elastic. Then they were too loose. Then I added custom elastic back in. Now they are just right!
The complete collection is posted on FB, friend me over there if you want to see it. Although I warn you in advance, it's not all that exciting. Just a bunch of photos of me wearing different athletic clothing.
I always look like a dork in any running pic. You look mahvalous.
ReplyDeleteToo funny! If I documented what I wore, then you'd know how often I clash and how often I wear dirty clothes. ;o)
ReplyDeleteFun idea! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love that the dogs are in every pic!
Haha I enjoyed the fashion show! I need a close up on those sleeves...I'd love to have some cool ones as mine are boring yet functional black.
ReplyDeleteNice sporty looks! I tend to wear running tights and a dry wick tank, tee, or long sleeved tee for almost every run. I can't wear shorts or skirts because I get chafing.
ReplyDeleteYou look great in all those photos! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteThe last outfit is my FAVORITE!! Love all the pictures..
ReplyDeleteYou know, this thinking about how you dress is a good idea for running. I was lucking in my last race (and also first race) that I wore a white shirt will mostly everyone had on the blood red race shirt - so I was a little easier to spot.
ReplyDeleteBut this definitely is a good idea for the ease of your own personal spectators!
CUTE running clothes! And I have a running top almost exactly like the first picture :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to now I'm not the only one taking pics of what I wear each race. We should all finish strong and fashionable! hahaha!
ReplyDeletelove the sleeves
ReplyDeleteCute pups. Gorgeous lady! Love the outfits.
ReplyDeleteThe dogs were probably wondering why you were moving back and forth from the camera. I liked that they joined you. I often clash when out running. Although my Cwx running tights always generate comments.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! I am impressed by the altered sleeves... I really need to learn how to sew!!
ReplyDeleteha what a fun project! that might help me see which of my outfits are really horrific and should be tossed
ReplyDeleteCute!
ReplyDeleteYou're right about the lime green. It's always good to wear a color like that in a race to be spotted.
