Same here. I really struggle to buy everyday clothes (I sometimes question my femaleness🤣) but a sniff of a fitness department and I’m off and can’t leave without something 😁.

I spend almost all my shopping time in running shops or online looking at new gear.

It started with one outfit, I now have two draws worth 😀. Don’t buy as many daytime clothes now either.

I’ve just bought 4 new tops, a new pair of running shoes, 2 pairs of calf compression socks and 2 more pairs of running socks. I can’t see an end to this. 😂
