ChrisThePuma Feb 2014 2:25pm, 4 Feb 2014 2,659 posts	0 ChrisThePuma Thought that would get your attention (look at all the lurkers ^^) Anyway... I need advice on what to wear under my running shorts - my cotton pants get all wet and soggy when I sweat or it rains. Is there a dry wicking sort of thing that people can recommend? Especially for marathon plus distances. thanks muchly.

HermanBloom Feb 2014 2:35pm, 4 Feb 2014 4,262 posts	0 HermanBloom I use amazon.co.uk or amazon.co.uk I just find they stop "bouncing " (stop sniggering at the back) and keep certain items snug and cosy (again, no sniggering).
