Marathon Training Week 25 | Olivers Gym Shorts

When I first started running I remember thinking I would never wear shorts that were above my knees. I never understood the purpose of having shorts so short. For me, it never made sense, but then I tried Olivers All Over short and fell in love. 

Marathon Training Week 25 | Olivers Gym Shorts by The Modern DadGym shorts become an important part of training because if they are too long, uncomfortable or too heavy you don’t want to wear them. The moment I slid into my Olivers gym shorts I knew they were going to become new favorites. What is it about these gym shorts that I love? Well, that’s easy:

  • Comfortable water repellent material (87% Nylon, 13% Spandex)
  • Stretch that makes running simple and feel like you’re not constricted
  • Deep pockets, with a small pocket to hold change or phone
  • Multiple color options, which is always a plus in my book
