In the shopping arcades of Leeds

On Cross Arcade in the Victoria Quarter of Leeds city centre. My wife browses, tries on and shops in Sweaty Betty, her fave running and activewear brand; hard-wearing, long-lasting, stylish, well-designed and enjoyable to wear. Wearing it motivates her to run faster, further and more competitively. She even pays for it herself. Thankfully. I meanwhile wander the arcade and admire the architecture. I have my own fave running and activewear brands. But deep down I most admire those runners who wear rubbish t-shirts, ill-fitting shorts, aged trainers and ill-matched socks and still manage to enjoy their training, running and events the most, often with the best times. However, horses for courses, different strokes for different folks etc etc.
