This week’s topic is Running “uniforms.” If you could only wear one running outfit for the rest of the year, what would it be?
I think where I live, that would be tough. But if I could, this would be my “running uniform”:
- Baseball cap – it keeps my unruly hair out of my way
- Tank top – I hate to hot when I am running
- Running skirt – so comfortable, look better on me than shorts, and the pockets can hold stuff
- Compression sleeves or socks – help my legs recover faster, I think
- Running shoes – the brand varies but now my faves are Nike Zoom Vomero 10s (in the pic below)
Unfortunately, I live in upstate New York and I can only wear my preferred outfit from June-August. That’s probably why I take two race-cations in Florida each year.
Happy Running! What would your running uniform look like?

When it’s warm mine looks a lot like yours. 🙂

My preferred running outfit tends to look a lot like that too, except for a short-sleeved shirt instead of a tank and no hat. I pretty much only where the hat if it’s raining. Of course, it seems like half the year is too cold for that.

For me it’s more than half the year. I probably can only wear my preferred outfit Jun-August.

I also love to wear skirts and tank tops, but my Lululemon shorts are a very close second. I would replace your cap for a visor because my head gets too hot with a hat.

I would wear shorts if I looked as good as you do in them. The hat keeps my hair out of my way.

cute outfits! I can’t handle a hat most of the year because my head gets so hot, but I do love a visor for sun or rain 🙂 need to get my compression sleeves out for spring! Great ideas!

Love the skirt love! I know how you feel with only getting to wear your favorite clothes in the summer. Skirts and staples are in my running uniform, too!

I never run in compression socks. But rather use them for recovering. You always match so well from your tank down to your sock.

I sometimes wear them for recovery too.

I love your skirt’s Safari Print. It makes me wish it were warm enough to wear the shorter skirts to run instead of getting stuck inside when it’s snowing 5-8 inches outside. Boo. Hiss.
But it also gives me hope that it will be warm enough to shed all of the extra layers…eventually.

I actually got to run in a skirt and tank today! Crazy! I stretch out my skirt time by wearing them with capris or tights under them. I also like the extra layers that puts over my butt.
