Regular  124  Newbury Park, CA |  Subject: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts?I find that I enjoy running more in tri shorts instead of my running shorts: no chafing & the compression feels good. Anybody else?

Master 1433 Calgary, AB Silver member | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I'm pretty thin now, and pretty quick, but I still find my thighs rub in runner shorts so I wear tris. Lame but whatever. My Zoots all have side pockets for gels/keys.

Champion 10018 , Minnesota Bronze member | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I don't wear my actual tri shorts because there are too few and too expensive to wear and wash weekly. I don't really wear running shorts, though (Athena thighs... ) and wear things that FIT like tri shorts. |

Expert 1662 Spokane, WA | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I've been training in my tri-suit with tech-t over it just to see how it will feel in upcoming Long course tri. Usually, I run in regular 4$ cotton shorts. always have. |

Elite 3498 Laguna Beach | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I think I agree with you. I often run in runing shorts but I think I like wearing tri shorts better. |

Expert 1028 Detroit, MI. Kinda. | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? If it's a brick, I might be in a tri suit. Other than that, running shorts... But, I do agree about rubbing and chafing, so I usually wear synthetic underwear like Nike Pro Combat. |

New user 205 Athens, GA | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? Running shorts for running - my thighs look too sausage-y in tri shorts for everyday use. Exceptions: bricks, and running in the rain. |

Master 1517 Grand Prairie | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? Bricks in tri-shorts, one-pieces or bike shorts (spontaneus brick) Run only in run shorts and in the winter in longer run shorts up to sweat pants Basically I mix it up? though I don't bike in run-shorts... (yet) |

Master 2177 | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? Running shorts, but they do have running tights if you prefer a closer fit. |

Regular 142 Portland | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I run in my running shorts aka football jersey material shorts, but I think of getting something a little more trim. When I wear my zoot top with my running shorts it kind of feels like mullet wear.
Business on top casual on the bottom. |

Champion 5781 Northridge, California | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? Running shorts, unless it's a brick run...I don't really want/need the token chamois pad for a run-only workout. (Losing 75 lbs took care of the chafing, fwiw...not an issue with running shorts these days.) Actually, I've worn tri shorts for long runs in the rain...not so soggy... |

Veteran 550 austin, Texas | Subject: RE: training runs: running shorts or tri shorts? I almost always run in compression shorts (or my jammers) under a pair of soccer shorts when I run. My tri shorts are short, the jammers are long. The extra compression feels good (and my jammers are cheaper than tri shorts so I don't mind wearing them out!) |
