A Runner's Paradise

Most women, when faced with a weekend away close by some outlet shopping, get excited about stores like Coach, Banana Republic or maybe even J. Crew...well not me!!  I was extremely excited by the prospect of going to the Nike Factory Store.  I had recieved gift cards from my awesome sister for my birthday and I was looking forward to getting some new clothes for running.  I have lost 30 pounds so a lot of my running clothes are too big for me.
So I walked into the store and right away starting finding many things that I really liked.  I had a huge armful of shirts, tank tops, jog bras, shorts, pants and anything else that caught my eye.  Most things I grabbed two of just in case because I was not sure of what size I would need.  Yes, I hogged one of the few dressing rooms trying on all my finds.  I wanted to take everything I tried on, but in the end had to make some tough decisions about what I really needed.  I ended up with a blue dry fit shirt (amazingly soft), black and white tempo running shorts (did not seem too short, but you might want to try them on to see if they are too short for your taste), a tangerine colored running tank, and a long sleeved half zip black running top (seemed like it might be good for layering as the fall weather starts approaching).
So if you ever have the chance to go to a Nike Factory Store I highly recommend it.  I am planning on visiting a Nike Town store in the near future and I am willing to bet that after that trip I will be saying to go there too!!

  1. I have had amazing luck at the Nike outlet stores. I have a hard time paying 50+ bucks for a running tank but when it's 50% they are hard to pass up!
    Do you have an underarmour outlet in your area? those are pretty darn fab too. :-)
