Subject: Tri-shorts vs. running shorts vs. biking shortsOK, so I'm shopping online for an outfit to wear on my first tri in June. I had hoped to get some tri shorts, and I've got a pair on my wish list at TeamEstrogen.com, but $50 is a bit out of my budget.
I know why I don't want to wear bike shorts during the tri, but can I just wear regular running shorts? I'm worried about wicking and chaffing. My Brooks running shorts tend to rub on my inner thighs when they're wet.
What do you all suggest? Are there any other online shopping options? I've looked at SportsBasement.com, and Iron-Girl.com (now FlowerSports.com ) and find the pricing fairly similar. |
