What about the Arse? I can't say my arms have ever needed warming if I'm wearing a long sleeved top. Maybe if you only have a club vest

I saw Paula Radcliffe running wearing long white socks and a bouncing necklace with alleged medicinal properties that must have irritated the hell out of her. If it's good enough for the world record holder ...

I am always amazed by the 100m runners who wear those huge bling gold necklaces - in a race where 0.1 secs can be the difference between a podium and no podium I just dont get why they would wear jewellery like that - am sure it must interefere with their race

LOL Jovi thats probably true... I am in the buff-loving camp - wet round your neck they stop you overheating, dry over your face they stop me wheezing and expiring, and they function as a wrist band Have to admit, was also wearing compression shorts when I was running, because they dont rub - although I subsequently realised that they are far too revealing and indecent and maybe I should put shorts over the top of them if I ever start again properly, especially as I seem to wobble more nowadays...! That said I do not own a skort. Or arm warmers I do have what could probably be seen as excessive amounts of technical clothing. But I am not sure that there is such a thing... |

My solution to excessively revealing lycra shorts is to stick a sock down the front of them. If nothing else, you can spot the people who *look* by their shocked expressions

The bloke I share an office with brings me courgettes in from his allotment too. Proper whoppers, if you shoved one of those down your pants there would be all sorts of alarmed looks.

Saw this thread and thought that in these days of trackers for everything and tape for every part of your body, it could probably do with a resurrection

Well, NE clearly acted as thread-killer with the unbeatable courgette story
