The Running Thread

whatever happened to normal guys that excercise in sweat pants?

Even though I'm not running long distances, I prefer to feel sleek and aerodynamic. I hate feeling my clothes on me. Stretch pants have no lag when I run.

I thought your sweat pants post was in response to me running in stretch pants.

Running in sweatpants sounds awful.

Running in sweatpants sounds awful.

in the winter. shorts in the summer. and like jogging pants in the between weather.

[guestT]

Sweat pants? I'm trying to stay warm and run faster, not training to fight Apollo Creed.

[Dev]

i am in no way impeded by running in sweat pants. i dont even understand this conversation.

[verb_to_trust]

Only way I could see running in sweatpants would be to layer over tights in 5 degree weather.

[guestT]

Even then, if the tights are halfway decent they're going to wick moisture right into the sweats. You'd be carrying an extra 5 lbs of sweat by the end.

I'll be testing out my new stretch pants tonight after work as I take in a solid mile and a half of downtown pavement.

Killed it running downtown tonight. Shaved nearly a minute off my pace since I started back up again. I think all the motion, lights and sounds energize me. Last time I ran downtown was the same. I just feel faster, like I’m being pulled by the current of a swift sidewalk river running through a steel canyon.

have you considered forming a boy band with Strat and Durden?

they just lost a key member and i think you would make a great fit

[washing machine]

Who did they lose?

just continue posting about ancient grains and japanese pancakes and you'll all naturally find your way into the studio with each other

I could literally eat both of those things right now. Thanks ‘up.

That's pretty impressive.

Thanks. I feel like I oversold it a bit, though. I'm only running 2 miles or less at a time and it's warmed up significantly in the last week. Still, I'm stoked to see progress like that.

the high i got off my run was insane today. goddam beautiful outside. 2 minutes slower than I can do but it was tough getting started. i think my lungs just were hurting from the cold a bit..

[run2death]

Ran out to Plateau Point and back with my brother at the Grand Canyon.

Kinda rekindled my love for that place. Gonna do a R2R2R run in the Spring.

Gonna do a R2R2R run in the Spring.

That's insane in a good way. I was tired enough just doing a fast trek from rim to river and back.
