i always wear the 2 piece 'al-amira' style ones when i work out. i get a reeally light cotton material so you dont feel like youre suffocating (i tried working out with a lycra one, and i was miserable...it was like a heat trap). i like that kind the best cuz there isnt a lot of fabric flapping around and they stay where you put them.

Re: runners and running
wait, so do you guys get that 'runners high'?
i used to run (well not really but i'd hit the treadmill for a mile or two before hitting the weights) and i think i got it once, cuz all of a sudden i got in rhythm and i couldn't feel anything and just kept going. i dunno if that was it or not. it didn't happen again cuz soon after the running started messing up my knees so i stopped.

yeah, runners high is a very real thing.
and pretty darn cool.
anyways you mightve messed your knees up cuz you mayve gone too fast, worn improper running shoes..bad running posture..loads of reasons
gotta take it slow

Re: runners and running
yeah, it was probably my form, cuz i think with my stride, i land too hard so its a lot of continuous impact on my knees. oh well, i really hated running though. at least on a treadmill. i don't mind if i'm actually getting somewhere. i used to run to my friends house after fajr to pick up his basketball and then go shoot around.
anyways, i like this commercial:
YouTube - New Balance LOVE/Hate 'Party'

Re: runners and running
I'm wondering if height has correlation with running faster.

Re: runners and running
kashi cereal pwns emo cereal.
anyways i dunno if i posted this here already but this is amaaaaaaaaazing stuffs.
YouTube - curetour's Channel
On September 3, 2007, Tim Borland of Los Gatos, California set out on an incredible quest to run a marathon a day (26.2 miles) for 63 consecutive days while pushing a mobility jogging stroller. Traveling more than 14-thousand miles across 29 states, 63 communities and one Canadian Province, Borland sought to raise awareness and funding for the non-profit A-T Children's Project. Battling a brutal schedule complicated by excessive heat, high winds, drastic elevation changes and torrential rain, Tim pushes on. Borland is fueled by the hope to find a cure for children diagnosed with a rare terminal disease, Ataxia Telangiectasia -- whose own feet lack the strength to run
