Busy uniforms never play out well in sports, so maybe they should have been toned down a bit.
They do look nice though and I am sure the athletes liked them.
I thought the announcing was great at FL. However, at some points they kept the shot on a fixed spot too long. They were talking about the leaders but still showing mid-pack runners. I assume they did not have enough cameras set up on the course,
When I first saw the uniforms I was like “What is going on?” I said that to myself because I was trying to figure out the pattern but I loved absolutely loved them! They look professional to me and very unique. This design is actually one of my favorites. I’m sure there’s some kid who did not qualify for the national meet that would have loved to wear one.

You have waaay too much time on your hands buddy. Get a real life, dummy!
maybe the execution could have been better, but they were a nod to the dutch artist Piet Mondrian's primary-colored square design scheme, or maybe inspired more by his most famous influence in sporting uniforms: the 1980's bike jerseys from Greg Lemond/Bernard Hinault's La Vie Claire team. I've always loved the La Vie Claire kits, and I'm not alone in that sentiment, so I think this was a cool attempt to incorporate some Mondrian elements

To this day, I have always wondered who had the most guts, whoever designed those, or the women who wore them. They must have rode their @sses off out of Pure Hate/embarrassment.

And I’m sure there are some kids out there who would also like a diet consisting purely of chocolate. That doesn’t mean feeding them only chocolate isn’t child abuse.
Seriously, with all that’s going on in sport, uniform design? These are 1st world problems. It used to be just competing at an elite level was enough but no...now you need to have the “look / style”.
Grow up or grow some...geez!
Second page and no pics of the uniforms?
Post them please

I can post pictures of mine if you want. I thought it was interesting and didn't look bad. It's not something I will wear to the gym or on training runs, ever. Maybe some local road races. I got 16th.
My source is that I was actually there and talked with other athletes about the uniforms.

Dang it you beat me to it!
Mondrain is a legendary artist and I think it's very cool.
Yeah they were Mondrain inspired.
They were really cool.
If you didn't get it you're a Philistine

So just clarifying — no official source to back up your original claim?
Congrats on the race though.
I've yet to see a clear image of the singlets.

I guess technically I don’t have an official source. Next time I’ll walk around with a recording device at all times... But really though, the runners liked them.
