I had heard great things about the Better Than Naked Shorts by North Face. I gave in, bought a pair, and wore then for a 3 miles run yesterday. Oh my goodness! I did not like them. I mean, they are comfortable, fit just about right, they dry fast, and don’t stink. However, they ride up. I have a problem with my big inner thighs and I was constantly pulling them down. Not sure if I want to give them another try or send them back? Any suggestions on shorts that don’t ride up?
I have decided to be a part of the Ragnar Relay Series. Yep 200 miles from Madison, WI to Chicago, IL. Have you done one? How did it go? Advice?
