What's really sad about the txt language is that my teacher friends are telling me kids thaink that is how you spell ur and prolly and turn in formal papers that way. Crazy.

Agree entirely about txt language but can't believe that only one other comment asks if they make bamboo cargo shorts (that actually sounds painful)

Thank you for standing up for the English language, and for subjecting your body to nipple massaging t-shirts. Er, sorry, I meant technical running shirts.

Just thinking about reading text shortcuts make me cringe. Actually reading it? Ouch. Bamboo shirts...interesting.

dang, can't u jst be a nice lil product ho? Okay, nevermind...the texting thing has been beat to death already. Sticking to Pec Valley is a deal-breaker for me. Not that I could afford anything outside of Walmart anyway.

"Guess wut? Ur prolly failing English 101." - This is one of the funniest things I have read in a long time!

Glad you like the shirt.

I concur with your analysis of bamboo garments and bedding. I have bamboo sheets, (many) shirts, and many bamboo socks. The socks are awesome.
I got all my stuff at (can we leave a link? Guess I'll try)

Oh, my next purchase is going to be the
duvet cover

Ian, great post.

Thanks for taking the shirt out for a run, and providing great feedback on the brand name and look of the shirt. Have you seen the other styles in the fall line? They look more "tech" than the basic shirt we sent you.

Thank you also to the others that left comments--rest assured, we are listening. For those that are jealous of Half-Fast's free shirt, we are giving away more shirts, details are on our website.

Best of luck in your training endeavors.

And yes, we referenced Strunk & White's "Elements of Style" while writting this comment. K?

2009-11-17T15:00:01.686-07:00

Whatever you do, don't pair the t-shirt looking tech shirt with your cargo shorts.

And, no, that NEVER gets old. ;)

K? K!

First they want us to run barefoot and now they want us to wear bamboo clothing.

Pretty soon you'll have to drag a woman behind you by her hair to qualify for Boston.

2009-11-17T14:27:51.977-07:00

I'm glad someone else out there cares about the English language enough to spell shit right.

Ugh.

My theory about races handing out "technical tees" instead of the good old cotton ones is the exact reason you state here - because no one's ever going to run in a cotton T-shirt lest they be tagged a Rookie.

Now, the fact that these technical tees are fitfully ugly pales in comparison to the horrors of them looking like regular T-shirts.

No - that's a flaw those bamboo-shirt making tossers must fix prior to launch. ;)

Nice blog, friend.

Likewise on the texting shortcuts.

I really want a Thriv T shirt. I wonder if they're reading the comments section.

2009-11-17T13:54:41.212-07:00

The worst... when people right back "K" after you've made a statement that requires no confirmation. "k" Seriously?!?!?

I so need to do my Thriv review too... I've had the shirt for weeks! Crap!!!

Damnit! Xenia beat me to the punch. WTF indeed. Take another sabbatical. Maybe you'll get another free pair of Izumis.

2009-11-17T12:28:35.097-07:00

My local running store cant say a sentence without the word bamboo in it. Because I refuse to jump on any bandwagon I have sworn off bamboo for life. Nobody tells me what is good for me. Nobody!

2009-11-17T12:21:56.657-07:00

capitalizing the starting word of each sentence is a non-ecofriendly move buddy. go ahead, waste a little more font. wait…isn’t it font seeps into the ground and poison us all? crap, I hope so.

I love this post... I know I'd love thriv shirts, even though I totally agree with u on text shortcuts. They make me cringe. I especially hate it when adults use it. See, we all went to school before texting was even born... we know better. ;)

2009-11-17T11:09:42.767-07:00

Hey...I got a Thriv shirt too! I LOVE it! It dries really quickly, did you notice that? And it doesn't get smelly. Not That I sweat OR get smelly. No, I don't.

I am also a hater of the text shortcuts. It's like nails on a chalkboard.

Thumbs up for illiteracy. Of course, my verification word is 'duffshom' which I can't seem to find in the dictionary.
