No jelly legs last night! And my new shorts are too short!! 😎🐌🐌🐌😎

[Ang33333]

Ran with my sister for the first time in ages. Back to the flat of the railway track at 9pm. Did 31 mins. Uneventful, slow and steady run. No jelly legs. All I've done for the last 2 days is drink!!! We are going to push on towards 5k now.

My new shorts arrived. They are very short. Too short! They looked longer in the photo. I will put them away until I have lost 1.5 stone. Will wear them in the garden though, they are lovely and cool! Found a pair of old linen shorts in my wardrobe that will do for now!! Happy running!!! 😎😎😎😎

Men’s shorts have a “leg length” measurement. So 22cm one’s are fairly long and 15cm ones are comfy for me. So they do that for ladies’ ones?

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Jay66UK]

I should have checked! ...😖

[BaddieThePirate Graduate]

Well done. Nice to finish the run and feel fine. We've come so far since week 1 🙂

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to BaddieThePirate]

So far! Can't really believe it.

[DeeRunning Graduate]

Shorts can never be too short! Wear em with pride runner 🏃‍♀️ Well done on a good run 👍

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to DeeRunning]

Hmmm. Maybe I will try them...😂😂

[DeeRunning Graduate in reply to Ang33333]

[over61andstilltrying Graduate]

Well done you! And lovely to with your sister again. I am still in seriously old Nest shorts that were relegated to gardening years ago! They are not short either. Helpful pockets for key, handkerchief and camera! All the best for your next runs! 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♀️

This forum is terrible for predictive text I think every post has a mistake in it but I’m getting very good at working out the intended words

[over61andstilltrying Graduate in reply to Dexy5]

Thank you Dexy! But I still need to check, I think. 😊

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate]

Sounds like a great run Ang33333 ...nice shorts btw, I’m sure they look great 👍🏻

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

Im sure they won't! Maybe next summer after a year of running....! 😀

[Cazza26 Graduate]

They look so cool! I really need some short shorts - I’ve been running really early in the morning, but even then my capri style leggings are far too warm.

You’ve inspired me.....

[Ang33333 Graduate]

I've got some knee length leggings but even they were too hot. These are a bit short at the moment!! 😀

[_SimonT_ Graduate]

They look good to me! Get those legs out! 😂

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to _SimonT_]

There's nothing wrong with the shorts! But my legs.... Maybe after a few more months of running ...!

[Dexy5 Graduate]

Hi ang33333, I bought some yesterday too. The ones I tried in Nike just had knicker type linings and I felt they were too short but I bought asics which were called 2-in-1 as the lining shorts were like thin cycling shorts so show below the main shorts. Check them as they are really comfortable and cool.

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Dexy5]

Thanks. I'm going to a shop tomorrow. Shouldn't buy online! 😎😎

[Dexy5 Graduate in reply to Ang33333]

Yes best to try on as I ended up buying a size large as medium was a bit short on the waistline. Good luck

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Dexy5]

These are large too!

[Fabulous450 Graduate]

Wooh hooo! Love the shorts Ang! You may not be ready to wear them but you have a new incentive now too! Enjoy the runs in the substitute shorts. I’m definetly going to buy mine! After all the weather will dictate when it’s time to put them away! It’s time now! 😬😬😬❤️

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

Definitely! Just too hot for leggings now. But these shorts will stay in the wardrobe for a little while ha ha! 😀

[Tasha99 Graduate]

I got these to go underneath from amazon

Gregster Women’s Fitness Shorts

Size 16 is XL ish

[Ang33333 Graduate in reply to Tasha99]

[misswobble Graduate]

A running skirt is an option too 👍
