In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we pass. And the choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.by Eleanor Roosevelt
Its August and the marathon training season for most runners is underway! So when you get those new sneakers, socks and new DiRTY ReD gear you will be well on your way for a successful running season! Right, ladies?
What to Wear?
In the August issue of Runners World there was a huge article on the ever growing skort culture and even though DiRTY ReD was not mentioned, we have ONCE AGAIN sold out of our very popular 3 inch and 5 inch skorts!
Dont worry, you can still get yours because, we are ready to rock n roll with more skorts! DiRTY ReD skorts retail for $48 and come in ReD, black and navy! Get yours while they are STILL hot!
Solana Beach Duathlon and the GEAR TO WEAR!

The 2008 Solana Beach Tri and Duathlon event was a success! A very fun event and our own Nicol Akins came in the top 12 duathlon performers! The featured gear to wear for this event was the DiRTY ReD double bra and 3 inch running skort!
Check out this months blog for more details.
Our fabulous double bra retails for 65.00 and the skort for 48.00. This is the same outfit you will see on the homepage and it is perfect for racing and looking good at the same time! Very comfortable!
