Ah! You made my day with your Brooks Running Gear Makeover pictures. I loved going through all of them. It was extra fun because I feel like I know you too, but I don’t get to see ya as much as you see me 
Thanks for all the submissions!!
I had over 70 entries and can’t post them all here your boss / SO / kids getting mad at you for spending an hour looking at funny strangers on the internet.
So I picked a handful of my favorite ‘worst dressed’. But don’t get me wrong – I love sweatpants. I am just working in getting better so I don’t embarrass myself so often.
Run Eat Repeat Readers Running Gear pics:
Amy is being chased by Superman! Go Amy go!
Ruth’s sports bra is falling apart…
Kathy loves hugs and tie-dye…
Katie and company as Santa. Someone should tell them St. Nick doesn’t visit the bad girls & boys in Vegas 
Deb’s fiance likes to match his headband to his shorts.
Natasha believes in protective eyewear for her runs. Guess she’s super fast!
Meg’s lil turkey – this is cheating, too cute!
Mary is wearing leggings under her shorts. Her butt gets super cold I guess?
Ashley digs this layered look too.
Michelle and her flying friends.
Melanie is into this look too!
This is Lori’s post-run look. Comfy!
The winner is:
Chinwe said she super overdressed for her first 10k – there are leggings under those pants! She was burning up, but couldn’t take off her jacket because of the bib!
Now I am soooo ready to start the weekend! I have been waiting all week for Friday at 5
Question: Do you destroy embarrassing pictures or keep them for the memories?
I did a Color Me Rad 5K yesterday and I saw a lot of people wearing tutu’s… It’s actually quite upsetting that so many people couldn’t find something more creative than the tutu look.

KEEP THEM! ALWAYS! I’m that kind of person who just loves making fun of herself…
Cool! Love that my running fashion don’t is on your blog 🙂
Depends on how embarrassing or incriminating 😉
I keep pictures and then post them to share… take a look : ) http://abetteryeartoabetterlife.com/2013/04/25/my-mug-is-uglier-than-yours-picture-time/
Yay! I am running in the Pasadena half too!! Well, I am doing the 10k this time.
Ventura has a bunch of 1/2 marathons that I have signed up for. I am sure you already know this but they have a Gold Coast Series. There is a half in Sept Oct Dec (Santa to the sea) and the series ends with the Agoura Great Race! I am going to do them all!!!! Fun
They were kept when I was little, but now it’s so easy to delete them with all the technology that most get deleted as soon as 😀
Keep them! Always! So funny to look back on.
If I destroyed embarrassing pictures of me, there’d be very few left!
Keep them although I wont look at them again!
Those were tooooo funny! Sitting at Panera laughing out loud.
You have to keep embarrassing pictures!! Best to look back and get a good laugh out of them rather than throw them out!
Oh, I’ve been there. I wore way too warm of clothes on my first 5K races, and I couldn’t take them off mid-run. Being too hot during a race is the worst!
i can always count on your blog for a giggle
