Vote for the Dork


Nobody ever accused the BAMF squad at the NTC in Victoria of being fashionable. Here we have Dano with tights under his shorts, Simon with the cap on backwards and the long shorts and brown compression socks. Then we have Dr Jones with the fem-capris. Finally LB with the capris and one blue compression sock. Who is the biggest dork in this photo? Cast your votes...

  1. Oh man, this post DEMANDS a comment. It's a toss up between Dano and Simon. Although the tights-under-shorts is high on my personal list of running attire pet peeves(I just don't understand the point of the shorts)Simon closes the gap with the skinny-kid-half-cross-dressed outfit: Dad's sweater and hat, mom's nylons. That said, I'd be giddy to don any number of ridiculous outfits if it meant I could run like either of them.
    Great photo! Thanks.

  2. Brown compression socks... I think that wins the ugliest training tool of the year award...

  3. Shorts, especially LONG ones, over tights. There just isn't any excuse for that.

  9. As much as I would love to vote for you Dano (cuz gawd knows i've voted you ugliest on many outfits in the past!!) I gotta go with Simon. Boney knees sticking out wins everytime.

  10. I had to go back for another look. It was a close one, with Dano and Simon really racing neck and neck - but Dano takes him at the line with the pointy toque...

    Jones - you need to elevate your game!

  11. I am coming is as a wash...( and they could all use one) it is a tie. Kirsten I suppose is the most obvious. I gained much fashion sense from seeing your post and will watch what I wear more carefully from now on. The shorts over the tights is a recurring mistake in my montage. Greg

  12. Simon win's my vote. The shorts and the brown socks just do not go.

  13. Most of you guys are nuts. Simon has this one hands down. We've got the socks, the knobby knees, the dorky hat and his expression is priceless. Simon, if you were a 10 year old you would have been beaten to a pulp.

    Not enough has been said about the t-shirt over the long sleeve though. That caps it off for me. Of all the unnecessary clothing out there, that is the most unnecessary...

  14. One notices that no one is wearing anything with a sponsor's name on it!
    Where's a fashion victim when you need one?

  15. must say that those feminine capris are pretty bad too. Without looking at the upper body, the legs look like lady's legs.
