This weekend was my first six mile run in preparation for the 10 miler in less than a month. Normally I train in my neighborhood or in the gym, but on Saturday Mark joined me for a run around the National Mall.
We were joined by many other runners and it got me thinking about running/fitness attire.
I really do believe you have to feel good to look good and look good to feel good, and that extends to working out as well. To paraphrase our favorite yogi, Eoin Finn, there is a difference between surfing in a 3mm wetsuit and surfing in board shorts, your movement is better with less constriction/bulk.
So in search of work out inspiration we go to the runways. The Spring 2011 runways showed a variety of pieces in a bold variety of neon colors.

The goal is to look fashionable and still very fitness ready, keeping in mind you're running not strutting the runway.
