Please help me out here...

Am I completely nuts? My idea of gym fashion is a tank and running pants, my hair in a bun, bangs clipped back, and no makeup. I'm there to work, not get a date. Plus I'm married. Does that sound frumpity? By the way, I'm going to start wearing my wedding band to the gym to avoid awkward encounters with single guys (last night I had an encounter). Most of the time I don't wear my rings because my carpal tunnel flares up from working out. My band was no biggie tonight. Yes, I know my middle finger is crooked in this picture. Tragic volleyball incident in high school. Question: Is it just me or is the gym a daytime club for pick ups these days? See story below.


So this girl tonight. I was seriously shocked by her getup. Full makeup. Hair in a cutesy updo with lots of bangs. And then, green shorty shorts, a super revealing tank top, and.... knee high socks with green stripes on top to match the shorty shorts. Oh, did I mention she wasn't even wearing running shoes? Just cute, flat, little tennis shoes. I watched her flirting with guys. I never saw her work out. And, get this. When I was done with my run I went to the locker room and caught her primping and checking herself out in between flirting sessions.

Please find the survey in the top right hand corner. I need to know, am I just a lump when I workout or is this a little ridiculous?

Hey Bri, Megan Jessee here. No you are not nuts. You're there for the training for the half marathon not to be like that girl who desperately wants to pick up a guy. i think that what you do to prepare to run is the right way. And by the way, if i was in your situation i would definately wear my wedding band too.
