Men's Adidas Astro Running Pants. I got mine at Nordstrom Rack with my fabulous Groupon, but this image is from this website, which includes an extensive product description.They're all moisture-wicking and fancy and are actually MADE for running. Oh, and they're only XL. YAY! (As a side note, I clearly have the lower body of a man. These fit perfectly.)
I also got a technical shirt, which is what I imagine UnderArmor shirts to be like. I believe it's a "compression" shirt. Basically, I can only wear it under my long-sleeved tshirts because it's bathing-suit tight. That's okay. It's WICKING!
Oh, about that ... we had a bit of a heat wave in Cincinnati today (I think it got above 40 degrees), so I got to run outside in the new gear. I definitely experienced the cold in a new way with these new clothes. I stayed warm and felt cool all at the same time. Weird. I guess these moisture-wicking crazies know what they're talking about.
Last thing. I just did a 32-minute run through the 'hood tonight! Yay!
Yeah, the moisture wicking makes all the difference. I refuse to run outside in the winter, but I DO ski a lot, so it's all about the awesome cold-weather gear. :)
ReplyDeleteStep one of my "Hopefully Going to Start Running Soon" phase has been accomplished. I bought the C25K app for Sara's new Ipod. Now we need music and I need some will power and motivation.
ReplyDeleteWish me luck.
Yay Matt! Keep me posted on how it goes and let me know if you need anything. =)
