New shorts!

Just treated myself to these. I have a pair of Nike ones I’ve been running in but as it’s my only pair I’m struggling to get them washed before each run!. Plus they are super comfy in the heat so I thought I’d get another wicking heat tech fabric one.

I shall be changing into these on the way home tonight. The underground train home is unbelievably hot 😓.

I wouldn't change them on the underground unless your very friendly with the transport police and don't mind the risk of going viral on the net!!

Make sure you take the tag off. You may get chafing otherwise :-)

Not run in them yet but running shorts are the business in the heat. Light, wicking tech and quick drying . I should have bought a few pairs years ago. These will be great for Spain in a couple of weeks 👍
