Calling All Fashion Police

February 22, 2012

I went to the dentist the other day wearing this half-zip. I showered, wore makeup and might have done something more with my hair than is shown here:
When the dentist walked in, he immediately said “Did you just workout?”
Me: “Um, no.” 
Then it got me to thinking: Is wearing workout stuff at non workout times ‘wrong’? Has my sense of fashion gone completely out the window?
To be fair, yes I wear that half-zip for running all the time. Exhibit A: Nasty torrentially rainy half marathon last spring. See how it’s usually vibrant blue becomes a more muted teal when it’s soaking wet?

But you haven’t lived until you’ve worn running tights with pirate boots…
…just saying…
So am I guilty as charged? Will the fashion police issue me a running clothes citation?
Do I need to rethink my casual wear?
Do you wear running/workout clothes for other activities?

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
