Athletics briefs

dancing in spikes

I wear black viga running briefs for my club races, but have found that viga no longer make them in white. Need to find white for county kit (why they though white was a good idea for cross-country I will never know!). Short of Wasps, does anyone have any bright ideas?

Unless you are at the front of the pen it doen't matter, Greater Manchester kit is Orange with Blue shorts. My mate runs Inter-Counties & English schools wearing green.

Trust me, it does for us at ESAA.

Thanx PP, have ordered from Wasps.

I did ESAA for Cambridgeshire (pale blue vest, white shorts) in blue & green check beach shorts one year, then navy the next year. Still have the vest, & sleep in the jumper most nights - happy memories! (I'm 21)
Enjoy!

I don't think they'd be too impressed, to be honest, although white is really not a very clever colour choice! At least Cambridgeshire is as stupid is Hants!!! Lol, anyway, I can see wat the wasps stuff is like, and also, I get the cute ickle bumble bee on my bum - lol!

Personally I think it's better that the county is strict - if they're going to have stupid colours it looks better if we all wear the,. At the inter-counties they don't specify shorts colours, and it looks a bit of a mess, with the AFD girls wearing green and the others wearing black, white, blue, balck and yellow, etc... It looks quite teamy if everyone follows the dress code (although doesn't make you run better, granted!). My friend learnt her lesson though - don't wear farm animal knickers unde white shorts - apprarently you could see them, but i don't think anyone else noticed!!!

I wouldn't risk it, they can be really funny about it, so I'm glad you've ordered the correct colour of shorts. Myself and a friend tried to run wearing black shorts and were told to change them and had to do so last minute (we were meant to wear yellow - Staffordshire - and these things were see through). We also got a complete bollocking (though we had ignored them telling us before so fair enough), although one girl got away with it!

It would have been OK, but it was my first ES and I only had black pants - which looked terrible under yellow gym knickers! LOL
