Can we discuss running shorts?

Raggedeannie, I haven't tried the Presto 7 inch, but I imagine they are made of the same material as the 2:1 and would work fine. Any other brand spandex gives me a muffin top if it is tight enough to not run up.

I plan to get the 2:1 Pulse shorts when Athleta does their 20% off sale soon.

And when might this be? (says the girl who just took advantage of the $100 off $400 promo combined with rewards...)

On topic, I just ordered the 2:1 Pulse shorts.  I tried them on, they seem comfy.  Because Pennsylvania is freezing, I probably won't get to test them out for awhile!

They've done it in the early summer the last couple of years, I think late June early Julyish.

Just what I need more encouragement to buy the Pulse shorts

I ran in the 2:1 pulse shorts for this first time this past weekend (on vacation in 90 degree heat) and they worked great!  I am 145 lbs, typically a medium in Athleta and bought a medium.  They didn't ride up at all and I have muscular (trying this word out rather than just saying "big thighs", LOL).

I want 10 more pairs but it's a bit pointless in this weather.

I like this long short from Lucy: www.lucy.com/Endurance-Long-Run-Short/112111,default,pd.html?cgid=RW_Bottoms

It has a drawstring and a pocket. They go on sale regularly.
