New Stuff! Buff! Bright! Tight!

Hmm, strange. posted this and it disappeared.

well anyway. Got home this afternoon to find parcels awaiting.

New pair of Brooks trail shoes that are very bright indeed. New pair of Nike tights that are very tight indeed. And an Anton Krupicka Buff that is... well, buff.

Itching to get out and try them all out but alas have speed session tonight, road running tomorrow and Friday and no chance to get on the trails till the weekend, and the fabulous Indian Summer weather rather precludes wearing long tights. Might just manage the buff though.

That's no t-shirt, that's my sergeant major in a kilt. No, I mean, that's my buff. Which Mrs Rignold has already tried to appropriate.

Oh sorry - how embarrassing- not really sure what a buff is or what its for - i think i might be missing something important

A buff is a tube scarf thing that can be worn in various different ways from round your neck, to like a snood, to a head band. I think there are actually 14 different ways it can be worn

Ok - I am with it. Thank you for the update. Luckily we are finally heading into summer so I won't be needing one. Thank goodness - as my running draw is getting full.

I am having a pair of those shoes! I am getting some orange ones. Brooks Pure Connect

I like my long Nike pants. They fit like a glove. I don't know whether to get a buff or a headband that covers my ears. I found a hat too hot even in winter. My head likes to breathe

I notice the colour co-ordination there!
