This is why I run naked, wrapped in cellophane

Exactly. Although I haven't worn mine to the sauna yet...that might be the next test. I put a small one in my backyard so I usually just grab a robe for the walk to it and back and a towel to sit on.

That's what I'm thinking. Although I'm fancy about my socks. I've switched to Injinji toe socks and don't ever want to go back, including their hiking ones.

What do you recommend and how much are they?

What am I missing without expensive running shorts? (lemm.ee)
 

Bought a few $10 pairs of gym shorts from a big box store, probably an 8" inseam. I wear boxer brief style compression undies when I run, so netting and how they feel on my skin isn't really an issue. They have side pockets that are fine for carrying my key fob, which is the only thing I really need for most runs. On runs they seem completely adequate. What am I missing by not wearing more expensive or nicer shorts purpose made for running? Is it one of those things where if I try something nicer I won't be able to go back?

ACTIVE is the Ticketmaster of running. Change my mind.

Thank you Microsoft, for the final push in c/linux@lemmy.ml

For the moment they don't care about what the customer wants because their most important market is enterprise, not the customer. I'm not sure what would change that except hitting a critical mass of C-suite people who get fed up with it.

Stone Mill vs JFK (lemm.ee)
 

Has anyone run both the JFK and Stone Mill 50 miler? I've done JFK but want to do Stone Mill this year and want to see how they compare.
