They have different gear from last time - two length of running tights (long and capri), shorts, jackets, t-shirts. Can't remember if they had any socks. I bought two pairs last time and wish I had bought more.
Joy of joys, this weekend I stumbled across an Aldi store about 3 mins drive from my house, so I don't even have to drive to the other end of the city to indulge in a little bit of retail therapy.... )
That didn't stop the male forumite (I won't go back and dig up a name) who admitted to buying the tights last time, only to discover that they were indeed a girl thing!
How can I see what's on offer at Aldi at the end of Feb , is it anywhere on the internet, am particularly interested in the capri's ( material, price, sizes, how much )
I am still trying to work out how to use the HRM I bought 3 weeks ago.
I cant even find the stopwatch functions etc.
I also bought a nice running watch in the Next sale at 2.99 and now cannot find the instructions and have no idea how to change the current time. I took it to Barcelona with me and spent 30 mins on the plane trying to reset it to 1 hour ahead. Did it somehow but now cannot change it back, plus now it beeps every hour. Grrrr
Anyone tried/bought the stuff they sell at Tchibo?
Tchibo is another German chain that used to specialise in Coffee - they still do. (I remember buying my first digital watch in around 1978 at Tchibo's..)
They sell HR Monitors for £20.00 - quite expensive compared to Aldi :-)

You can google for the details too.
If you get really stuffed let me know and I'll see if I can get some more for you
Do you like the red tops or the lilac tops?
Yes, size 8...
You're just more stable than me.
I was wondering when the next delivery would be.
I've got a race on 7th March. Perhaps a pair of Capri tights would make all the difference to my apallingly slow pace!
Running jackets,trousers,tops,shorts and a lovely skintight, all revealing 3-in-1 Sports Suit...
Shorts & top look good though...

Back on this Thursday. £10 for a jacket - gilet thing looks pretty good !
I've signed up for the Aldi Newsletter on email - get details of each week/month offers... Loads of running gear this time and super prices.
I got the heartrate monitor and a running jacket last time and both are really good an very cheap 14.99 & 7.99 respectively. Bargins.
Pinhead

Oh there is one section for men. Called "The New Man at Work".
I was looking for mens running gear. I guess men dont do fitness stuff. Too busy working!
and I thought I looked cool...
yes - it caters mainly for women, I think there are some Sports jackets (non-pink)
Sizes seem a little less generous than they were
Now doing X-small too and no X-large in my local store
Only seemed to have the pretty aqua-grey in the smaller sizes too (
