White Hot Running Gear

Vanilla ice cream, creamy frozen yogurt, a coconut smoothie—all good things come in whites. The same goes for running clothes. Sometimes the most neutral of colors can have the biggest impact. These crisp looks are sure to give you a motivational boost. Even better, white reflects the sun’s rays—meaning cooler running in steamy situations.

Who’s That Girl?
Olympic pole vaulter Tori Peña, who competes for the Irish national team, took an afternoon off from training to rock our all-white looks. Those strong legs and sculpted abs are a product of the intense training that enables her to launch herself 4.6 meters in the air! That’s an Irish pole vault record, and an astounding 15.1 feet for those of us who aren’t fluent in metric.

Don’t let a gentle breeze interfere with your chill style.
