WEAR
What, only one leg?
you cant be serious can you?
That article on the front page says that tights actually make running more efficient. Is that why everyone wears those tight shorts? They look terrible.

Umm, I beleive you mean all of the top tri athletes wear. I have never seen a top distance runner in those things. That along with the half tank they wear. Pretty cheesey.
they sell them on eastbay, and top distance runners do wear them, solinsky just won the NCAA 5000 in them, Hall won it last year in them, goucher won usa xc in them, so did hall, and ritz wore them when he won NCAA xc in 2003.
Did you even read my post? I was obviously speaking of the half tights and girly tank tops that tri athletes wear. What you are speaking of are compression shorts, whaich I am aware that people wear. Thank you though...
dude, i was talking about the original post which said nothing about tri-shorts.
Here is the deal...
If you are going to wear those half-tights, you better win the race.
Anyone who wears half-tights and fails to win the race is a total dousche.
What about the year Cragg was 2nd at NCAA XC? He was wearing a pair of half tights. Is he a douche?

No.
Stupid question.
I wear them to show off my stuff.

So, what is the difference in half-tights and compression shorts?
Seriously.
Half tights typically go down to the mid to upper shin. Compression shorts are "biker" shorts.
how are compression shorts any less cool than short shorts?
Why would you want something that goes down to the mid to upper shin? I mean why not just go all the way? I don't understand.

I remember seeing a pic of Letsrun Idol du Jour, Bob Kennedy, racing in these kind of tights in the early-mid 90's. I find them really comfortable to run in, but won't wear them due to the ridicule I would receive.
