Shorts with Boxer Brief Style Compression Liners
“Looking for any pointers to ANYONE who is making shorts with boxer brief style compression liners (aside from Brooks, I already know about them). Everyone else seems to still do the bikini liner and.. ugh, it just never feels right. I’m moving away from boxer brief/running short combo (or thinking about it) since I’ve lost a lot of weight and need to restock.”
Chest Heart Rate Monitors
“Anyone else with large boobs try a chest heart rate monitor? Does it stay in contact with your skin?”
Running Gear Favorites
“Saucony Stopwatch tank tops are extremely good, the fabric is super light and evaporating. Even comparable products by other big-name brands don’t feel as nice (I’m probably biased in favor of what I’m used to). And I’m not a brand snob: I’m perfectly happy to wear cheap-ass running shorts from a Chinese shopping app as long as they have pockets.”
Exploring New Gear Choices
“Newer to running and thought I’d try some Xero shoes. Anyone here try them? They have great reviews. I’m just second guessing the money I spent on them.”
“I finally got a super shoe! Wondering if it will cut my time down but mainly hoping it will make things easier on my limbs ;)”
