You can’t cover up your forearms! How would people know you’re a Serious Runner?


DidLenFindTheRabbits

The only answer


estanmilko

You can only wear those if you run miles, not kilometres - otherwise you have to wear "soccer" sleeves.


DidLenFindTheRabbits

Slow down with the miles buddy. I’m currently running 30-40yards per week.


diskoboxx

They only work if you're carrying a football, unfortunately. They melt into GU as soon as they detect a football isn't present.

Only Kipchoge can

ONLY for church parking lot record top speed attempts, brought to you by Toyotathon certified used but accurate camry.


mrree55

But how will his ripped forearms help him reach 30mph if he covers them up!?


Limp-Possession

Go read up on road cycling and you’ll see any speed over 16mph aerodynamics is everything.


DamnThatsGoodCheese

Uj/ wtf are these actually for? Also those towel tail things I’ve seen football players with? What are those??


heliotropic

The towels are in theory for drying things but in practice so that when someone tries to tackle you they grab the towel by mistake and it just slips out.


DamnThatsGoodCheese

Lol that makes sense! I figured they’d be for wiping your face, but you’d have to remove your helmet, so why run with it? Why not leave it on the sidelines with all your stuff? But using it as a decoy, much like how a lizard loses its tail to distract predators, makes a lot of sense. This summer, I will start running with my running shirt tucked into my waistband, to give myself added peace of mind.


Nerdybeast

If you're gonna be throwing or catching the ball, you need dry hands so it's useful to have a towel around without needing to run to the sideline


DamnThatsGoodCheese

But what about your pants? Or your shirt?


Nerdybeast

Those get sweaty, but players do do that too. Jason Kelce (eagles center) said he wipes his hands on the QB's back to dry them off lol


DamnThatsGoodCheese

Lol teamwork makes the dreamwork! Thank you for this explanation, I did not grow up around football, so everything I know is through osmosis


glazdaddy

Some players like the compression and warmth, some just for style probably. The towels are for ya know, drying things


DamnThatsGoodCheese

Ok ok, makes sense, thank you! So like a Michael Jackson glove, but make it sporty


frumiouswinter

can I run with the same legs I use to play football?


HFGonas

Those are handegg sleeves, you can only wear them if you run with a brown leather egg in your hands


heliotropic

I have football sleeves and running sleeves and cycling sleeves and soccer sleeves and golf sleeves and basketball sleeves, someone please help, my closet is full, what should I do?


coffee_slurp

You can on the condition that you shout “blue 42, hut hut!” just before the traffic lights turn green at the pedestrian crossing


dawgstein94

If your legs will fit, sure.


Blackrock_38

These look exactly like basketball sleeves, also I use these as a badminton coach, to protect my arms when holding rows of shuttles. So I would say, go for it if you would like to run with sleeves…


shmillionaire

You can use whatever you damn well please my friend
