There's always something that we want...the sun is out therefore I need a different top, it's raining therefore I need to get a jacket...my arm was rubbed raw by an arm band so a new belt was ordered. I justify it as my reward for getting out there and running three times a week.

Although I am not as bad as my husband as he has a room full of different running shoes for different surfaces/distances, various cycling tops and shorts, various jackets for differing temperatures, wetsuit and spare as he does triathlon (and don't get me started on the number of bikes he feels he needs for different weather conditions!).

It's nowt to do with him. Get him an tool catalogue to browse ๐Ÿ˜Ž

My serious faced husband once called me in from the garden to show me Exhibit A. Our wardrobe rail had collapsed from its moorings under the weight of "all my running clothes". ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ โ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ guilty as charged

When I buy new stuff now I put it in my secret wardrobe. I call it Narnia ๐Ÿ˜Ž Running watch is small, so no worries ๐Ÿ™‚

Could be worse I suppose, Could be spending on shoes... Oh ok I'm doing that too :)
