Running shorts

Hello lovely runners,

We’ve been having some outstanding weather these past few weeks, which is amazing however the shorts I have aren’t made for running and leggings just too warm to wear in the hot days! 🥵

Has anyone got any suggestions as to where I can buy running shorts that aren’t too short!! I can’t seem to find any suitable...

Tia 🏃🏻‍♀️

Skorts are a great idea..some not overly priced ones out there....Lidl and Aldi have shorts too..

Skorts are all over the place..all prices...

e.g.

decathlon.co.uk/run-dry-2-i...

Sales too.. I have a Reebok one

Good morning Anna, maybe Run4it might have the shorts you are looking for or another respectical sports shop.

If not try Asda, I bought decent shorts there, not sure if they sell running shorts for ladies.

Hey Alan,

Thought about Run4it, they were fab when I was in buying my shoes. Downside is they’re a bit further out now I’m working in the shire..

I could definitely check out Asda..😊

Depends if you are bothered about brands. I picked some up in the Adidas sale recently and they do most of them in 3 different lengths.

Hey Scott,

No - not bothered about brand. Comfort is what I’m after.

I’ll check the Adidas site. Thank you 😊

I’ve been living in the Skort I bought from decathlon about 5-6 weeks ago. They are very comfy (choice of two lengths) I ordered online. Good luck 😊

Thanks Biddy, that’s good to know. I saw lovely skorts on their website but had problems ordering, will pop in to the store on Saturday. Xx
