This morning I headed out to run R2 Wk7 wearing my brand new running gear from my husband and son for Motherโs Day...oh how times have changed ๐
The first 5 minutes was a nightmare as I kept loosing my trousers, I must of looked as if I had ants in my pants as I kept awkwardly adjusting myself ๐ฌ who knew there was a drawstring inside that I needed to tie ๐ once I had tied my trousers up securely I was able to focus back on my run and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I ran through muddy puddles, enjoyed the scenery around the country park and kept singing out loud to my music I was listening too...opps!! Today was a good day and really hoping R3 on Friday will be just as enjoyable (without the trouser issue ๐)
Happy running everyone!

Ha well done! Iโve just had to order new trousers as line donโt have a string... nothing worse than losing ya trousers and your undrcrackers. Iโve just finished week 5. X
Yay! Well done on finishing Wk5 and youโll be flying with new trousers ๐ x
Ah yes the secret drawstring - I have a pair of Norah Battyโs that no matter how hard I look donโt appear to have one. Itโs a pity no-one tells you these things... like flat seam leggings, so you not end up with sandpaper like chafing..
Hi KattyG Hidden if you can make a small hole on the inside of your waistband and thread something through you have a drawstring in your waistband.
I have done this with two pairs of my tights (one pair has a flat trainer lace in them and the other has a round walking boot lace). It's a cheap and easy fix. I did do a sort of blanket stitch around they edge of the decent pair but didn't bother with the Aldi ones but both have stood up well to wearing and washing.
I have the same issue always forget to tighten. Did you have some fab new gear what is it like? ( i'm now obsessed!) X Go you, inspiring me from week 6 X
I was so excited my husband and son got me some Addis black running tights with a coral coloured stripe down the legs, coral running top and a charcoal running zip up hoodie...I already had coral coloured running shoes so Iโm now very coloured coordinated ๐๐๐ my face is always beetroot at the end so even that blends in ๐
