straps. But taking off that layer made me run faster, and better. Despite the worries, there was also a sigh of relief, a feeling of new freedom. The irony is, as I crossed other runners on the trail, I got zero weird stares or judgy looks. The only reactions from my fellow runners were a casual “You go, girl” or a thumbs-up. I wished I’d done this sooner!I knew that thousands of women who are shaped like me would want the same experience.
Even worse, constricting yourself with clothing limits you. My short-sleeved cotton tee symbolized what I was doing to myself mentally as an athlete. I was trapped under the heavy fabric, and unable to run to my full potential because I was so worried about how people would view my body.It’s time to take off our security blankets we use to cover up, and accept the body we have.
Risk what your body may look like in the eyes of others for the sake of accepting your body and allow yourself to be comfortable. Your body is changing for the better; give it the comfort and space it deserves. Not all athletes are born with athletic bodies, but many of us have an athlete deep within, waiting to be unpacked. Uncover that athlete, starting with your tee shirt.
