I am a firm believer in Exercising Ugly. By that I simply mean that I don't own a lot of cute workout clothes - they aren't particularly motivating for me, since I'd much rather spend that cash on something I don't have to sweat through. My exercise of choice is running, and I mostly stick to some old mesh shorts or a worn pair of Target yoga pants along with whatever hand-me-down blood donation or old race t-shirt I can dig out of the bin under my bed.
But when the weather turns hotter, I do like to wear tanks to run in outdoors and the ones I've been wearing are... well, let's just say they've seen better days. One of them is a MATERNITY tank top, that's a dingy green color because I accidentally washed it with a kitchen rug a few months ago. It's pretty hideous. You wouldn't want to be seen with me if I was wearing it, and that's the honest truth.
So the last time I was in Old Navy, I (reluctantly) picked up a couple of their GoDry tanks for $10 each (they go on sale regularly) and I am in love. They're thin, they fit close to the body, and yet - they're roomy enough that they don't CLING. I only wish I'd bought one in every color - and I WILL, just as soon as the price drops again.
