With every running race I’ve ran in the last decade, I’ve been given a technical running t-shirt. My body has changed shapes over time, but I’ve been holding on to these tops, wearing them at the gym. The last time I wore one, I was annoyed that it kept riding up during my overhead triceps exercise.
I’m getting rid of the workout tops that are irritating me. When I exercise, I don’t want to be thinking about how my clothes aren’t fitting me. I want to focus on the stability of my movement, the physical push I’m putting on the muscles, the way the sweat is trickling down my face as pooling in my elbows, etc.
My Mourners won’t have to sort through my workout tops. They can know that the tops served their purpose and can go on without me. I want to death clean the rest of my closet too, and with this change of seasons, I’ll take note to remember that I don’t need to be too enthusiastic in the culling.
Under what colour palate do most of your clothes fall?
