With RunningSkirts, the suggested size for my measurements was slightly small around the hips, perfect in the waist and the undies crawled up my butt while the skirt rode up while running. While it might make for fun viewing for my husband I just couldn't do it. I'd post a picture but this is not THAT kind of blog.
The next size up was too big around the waist, fit good around the hips, and the underwear still felt like they were trying to crawl up my butt. I also felt like there was an obvious underwear line. :( I got a medium in the Bibbity Skirts and it fits fabulous. Maybe a little big in the waist, but the undies are perfect. AND no panty line from the built in undies. Priceless.
I am really not trying to show you my belly here, just the waist band, and there are pockets on the sides that my phone will not bounce out of while running and gels fit in there nicely also. Sorry for the crazy hair, it was really windy out.
and when I run my butt does not hang out. GREAT! I tried to get a better action shot, but the wind kept blowing my camera over.
and in case you were curious about the pockets.
2. The 10 day weather forecast looks really AWESOME! I have a Shamrock Run 5k on Sunday that I am super excited about. The weather should be pretty good for it.
3. I also had this fun package waiting for me when I got home from my run today. I won it in a giveaway over at Running Like a Girl
"It might make for fun viewing for my husband"... hahah! My husband would probably look forward to the same thing, nevermind that I'm uncomfortable!
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys are getting nice weather, too! It's been gorgeous here in MI.
never heard of those skirt before..I have a running skirt and I dont love it. I would probably not race in it. It needs a drawstring! I have a MED and it is way too big at the waist..it moves and it is annoying.
ReplyDeleteDo these have one?
Not big on the whole running skirt fad. I think the built in underwear would annoy the crap out of me if it was riding up my rear while running, plus I already wear as little cloning as possible while running...so I think peeps would start to get the wrong idea if I was bearing stomach and bum!
ReplyDeleteWe are having some crazy late winter weather here this week too. Today the temps reached nearly 80 and when I stepped out the door at noon for my workout I nearly died.
Very cute skirt!
ReplyDeletewhat a fun package! I'm so jealous. That skirt looks super cute and comfy!
ReplyDeleteSweet winnings! I'm so jealous.
ReplyDeleteAlways a great day when you get something fun in the mail! I've never heard of those running skirts. I have yet to find one I absolutely love so maybe I'll try this one.
ReplyDeleteCute skirt. That DOES look like a great week of weather coming up ...nice! And that giveaway pkg looks great too... would love some more Shot Bloks.
ReplyDeleteyay for getting stuff in the mail!!
ReplyDeleteNot THAT kind of a blog! lmao Love it.
ReplyDeleteVery cute skirt! I haven't gotten into the whole running skirt thing. I always feel like I look like a complete idiot in them. I have a sparkle skirt and that is about it. I have funny shaped body that I think shorts are made for.
ReplyDeleteI love my Bibbity skirt too. I have the pink and black one. Isn't it great to have weather like this in March??? Getting spoiled! I have only done two treadmill runs all winter!
ReplyDeleteoh that skirt is super cute! I was just thinking of heading to lemon and checking out a new skirt! I will have to go to the website and check it out!
ReplyDeleteawesome on the prize you won, you are a prize winning girl!
I had an Adidas running skirt and the shorts part of it would rub between my tree trunk legs and then ride up. I haven't gone all out for another skirt since but I think I would like to give it another try!
ReplyDeleteThe talk of the weather being fabulous everywhere is killing me! I'm about to say goodbye to Washington permanently - it's all rain, rain, freezing rain, hail, more rain, and a snow/rain mix. I need the sun in my life!!
ReplyDeleteSo happy that your package arrived. It's all super classy with the tape & recycled hand warmer box. ;-)
ohh I like that skirt! Really cute off to check it out.
ReplyDeleteLove the box of stuff. :)
I like that skirt! Going to check it out!
ReplyDeleteThat is some nice weather. We have been having great weather too and it is just making me itch for summer, but like you I hope it isn't too hot.
ReplyDeleteCute skirt! I can't pull those off but I love the way they look on everyone else.
Fun skirt! At first I wasn't a huge fan of them, but I somewhat recently got one as a gift and I must say, my mind is definitely changing. I already kind of want another one.
ReplyDeleteLooking good Christy!
ReplyDeleteI love getting packages in the mail. Especially one filled with yummy goodies.
ReplyDeleteFinally a skirt that doesn't show the booty and holds a phone. Awesome!
Good luck on your race! Kick some booty!
