Can’t wait to stock up. I just hope it’s not all their “leftovers” (e.g. wacky patterns and colours)

The wrong shorts

As you will soon begin to figure out my sport of choice is running and over the years that I have been running I have developed a love of also buying cute running clothes. Only issue is that cute running clothes are not always practical and don’t perform well during a run.

My recent shorts purchase at Lululemon is a perfect example of buying a piece of clothing that just was a pure waste of money. Now I usually love Lululemon clothes (apart from that sports bra that I bought last year – I now have a permanent scar from wearing it during my Ottawa half marathon race), so what happened on last nights run was just maybe plain unfortunate.

What happened?

On my lunch hour I wandered up to the Eaton Center as I was determined to buy a pair of running shorts. I had seen this pair of shorts (a.k.a. the Knock Out Short) before and thought they would be the right choice. How wrong was I? Within 5 seconds of last night’s run I knew that these shorts were going in my do not wear again pile.

The main issues?

They rode up immediately and just did not fit right. Basically I felt like my behind was showing. Not a pleasant feeling for someone that feels she could stand to shave a few inches off of it in the first place. So, I spent the 6km run in pure discomfort and tried to run way at the back so as not to be in front of people I do not really know yet. Not good.

I should have maybe bought “The Skort”.
