I love these! That's me sorted for the next ten years, I think!

BTW, the dip above my left knee (left of pic as mirror image) is wasting caused by my fractured femur. Likewise, left ankle is thicker. What is very interesting is that, before I began running, my left calf was only 3/4 the circumference of the right one. Now they have equalised. Likewise my damaged knee no longer troubles me.

Those are stunning! I love that blue. Happy running, Flick. x

in reply to Sadie-runs

Thank you. So pleased with them. I like them the best of the ones I've bought x

Great legs! Er leggings!😁 Peacock feathers, to be honest wouldn't have noticed the leg if you hadn't said anything, can't see you being sorted for the next 10 years! Your a bit of a fashion lady!😊

in reply to davelinks

Ooh, thank you xxx Not sure about the fashion lady - I'm a jeans and scruff sort of person ... but ... I appear to have this troubling little lycra habit. and since the most i get to go out is when running, might as well strut my stuff (peacock like) ;)

Have you got the Leonard print ones flick? If not, you'll have to get them, and give us a fashion show in them!😊

in reply to davelinks

Omg they are the most beautiful ones I think I’ve ever seen!

Definitely. Are they lightweight? My current plain ones are a bit hot now - I could definitely be tempted x

in reply to EmmaRunning

Well they are lycra, thin, wick sweat away. Dont know what else to say. They do capris as well if you want something cooler x

Very pretty! I wouldn't have noticed the difference in your legs if you hadn't pointed it out. You're in better shape than many women half your age!

in reply to MikeJones68

Aw, bless you, too kind x

More running stuff I hope hehe. Meanwhile i'm wfh as waiting in for a sofa to arrive lol. Running laters, but as the sun is out I think i will be braving the shorts again.

in reply to pinkaardvark

No more running gear for a while - though Tikiboohave a lovely fitted black running jacket... sigh...

The sun may be out, but it will take a few more degrees of heat for me to want short sleeves and legs !

Those are lovely! I need a pair with owls on and I might tempt them out of hiding!

My legs are so bandy! I’m sure running has made them even bandier!!!! 😀

in reply to Sarakc

I haven't seen owls, but someone must do them! I'm sure your legs are fabulous x

Woo hoo Flick, you're looking fab there in those pants, lovely design. You certainly have a great collection now, you've definately 'over taken' me with the running gear, heehee. Brilliant xx

in reply to quirkybee

Thank you 😊 i will have to stop now though, or it will be bread and water to eat for the next six months! Xx

in reply to quirkybee

My daughter has instructed me not to become one of those people who wear fitness gear everywhere!

Yes, I remember those when I checked the website a few months ago! They look really nice, a little as if your legs were wrapped with peacock's feathers! The next days over here are going to be really hot (they forecast 27°C for next Tuesday!), so definitely need to go shopping for another pair of shorts, not too short... Wish me luck!

in reply to Anthie

Its going to be hot here too soon. Love it! X

How many pairs have you got? Pretty sure you’ve shown 3 pairs in as many days 😂

He he he.

Mind you, not all of those were very expensive. These for example were under a tenner

I’m the same but just with general running paraphernalia. More tops. Cropped leggings. New belt. New bottle. This running malarkey is costly 😂

in reply to Tasha99

And dont get me started on running shoes! And Im still trying to get the right solution for carrying stuff. Both belts and arm bands are uncomfortable when you get hot.

Lovely Flick! Ok - I'm off to have a look at the website..not sure I can 'do' bold though...!🙂

in reply to Sandraj39

but don't you know runner are invisible to the general public? Also they do plain colours too. i love the fit of the leggings: high waist and they hold everything in and give you a lovely sleek shape :)

Oh I love those sooooo much 😍😍😍😍 You're right, they are the best ones so far!

in reply to Nictwit

I'm tempted to get the capris as well. Just capris are a tad too short in the leg, I prefer mid calf length.

in reply to bsimonuk

Me too. Very tempted by the capris x
