Posted by Dawn - Pink Chick Filed Under: Photos

Running skirts for women have become very popular in recent year. But skirts aren’t just for women.

You can read about it over here or here. Martin Lel won the race and broke the six-year-old course record with a time of 2:05:15

    Sorry, but that looks ridiculous. The yellow singlet is wrong, wrong, wrong with that tartan, and the textures are a mishmash.

    Hope it’s comfortable, at least.

    With that much wool you need a sponsorship with Glide or Vasaline. BTW, you know what he is wearing under that kilt? His running shoes. :)

    I just love comments. :-)

    Duchossois – I couldn’t agree more, he should be wearing a green tartan and some knee highs would have gone much better for socks.

    Blaine – I’m thinking the skirt is likely comfortable compared to that bulky looking belt he’s wearing…lol.

    Duff – I wondered what was under there as well but wasn’t sure I should mention it…lol.

    Audrey – I’ve always liked kilts myself but not sure I’d want to run in one unless it
    was made of a lighter material…lol. Heh, good luck with your half marathon
    on the weekend.

    Steve – Check the fine print…..I think it says Brooks….lol.

    That is not a skirt… it is a kilt
