I normally run in cotton shorts and a tshirt, but it's getting really hot so I went and bought some running outfits with that material that absorbs and evaporates sweat. They looked cute too I though, but when I actually went to the track (on a military installation) I kind of felt like they were... IDK ... flashy or something. They're tight n clingy. I emailed the pics to DH, but I know he will tell me "whatever makes you comfortable" which is no advice at all. :lol What do you guys think? Are these practical running clothes or "look at me" clothes?
Sorry about the blotted face. I'm paranoid about putting my pictures and all my info on Internet forums. :blush

I bought this one

And since I got those shoes with the hot pink I figured I may as well make it seem like I meant to and coordinate. :lol

I think you look great. Women here run around base in a sports bra and booty shorts!

Very modest and quite cute!
Throw on a pair of classy sandals and you can hit the mall.

I think they are very running appropriate. My only concern with running is having the girls bounce too much and pulling a muscle, but I think that is more on a bra level than a shirt level. I would wear them

I think it looks great! I am most comfortable working out in clothes like that (fitted bra top and pants/capris) because I can watch my form... But it looks great, I don't think it's too flashy AT ALL!! You look great! I am working out to get your body! :teehee

I think it's fine I run in usually my track shorts which are basically like the track shorts you see athletes on tv running in they're small but they're loose and comfy to run in and a tee or tank top what you're wearing looks modest and very stylish

I like them! I just ordered a new skort which looks like a skirt with compression shorts on the inside. I imagine it's going to be short since it's built for running, but like you, I need to be cool and comfortable when I'm running. The humidity is creeping up and I'm starting to sweat from every pore during my runs. :lol

I also prefer form-fitting shirts when I run because I hate a shirt flapping around. Of course I carry most of my fat in my stomach, which I hate, but when/if I lose it, I'm going tighter! :D

I worry about working out on base too. When I run cars stop and whistle at me. And I do NOT look at all sexy when I run!!!

But I love those outfits! Too cute!
