    Am I the only runner here who was creeped out by how short the running shorts were in school? Like 13 year old me running track in school felt very violated.

      i wore boy shorts (i am a boy just fyi or rather a man thing) and they were called basketball shorts and went past the knees. both boys and girl’s wore the same shorts because they were unisex so we never had that issue…

      were there different kinds of clothing for each gendee in your school? we sorta had to buy ours from the school.

      I ran cross country and personally I preferred the freedom of split shorts, but I can definitely see the other perspective. I also get hot really easily, so I was happy to shed any bit of fabric I could get away with.
