I'll admit that when I first started running I ran in old cotton tshirts. I had of course seen people running in tech tshirts, but I kind of assumed they were just for show. In fact, when I first started out I would kind of roll my eyes at those decked out in their "running gear". I figured I was a running purist, I had no need for fancy gear.
Its actually pretty funny looking back on that now. I was a NOVICE runner and yet for some reason I thought I knew better than the veterans.
I'm not going to try to convince you tech tshirts are a mandatory part of running, but I will say it's what I now prefer to run for a variety of reasons including: comfort, breathability and lack of chaffing.
The people at One More Mile were kind enough to send me one of their running shirts to try out.
Cute, right? Their gear is known for their fun sayings. There are so many to choose from, both for runners and walkers.
So the light hearted humor is great, but these shirts go beyond that. They are made of super comfy, light weight wicking fabric. I love how soft these shirts are. One of the things I like best is the slightly extended tail on the shirt.
Just a heads up when you go to order: the shirts run about a 1/2 size small.
I seriously love these shirts and am eyeballing the "This IS my race pace" shirt.
