Best Running Clothes for Summer

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Vanderbilt chapter.

Whether you’re running in the Country Music Marathon tomorrow or not, you should definitely consider purchasing some new running clothes for the summer. Oversized sorority t-shirts and norts might be appropriate for walking around campus, but they’re definitely not the most efficient option for running. Plus, we all know that investing in new workout clothes helps us to actually work out more/at a higher intensity, and that’s something we should definitely prioritize with summer right around the corner. Consider investing in some of these dri-fit tanks, breezy shorts, and cropped leggings. Your budget might take a hit at first, but your hot summer body will thank you!

Stacey Oswald, originally from South Florida, came to Vanderbilt as a member of the class of 2015 and got involved with HerCampus her freshman year. She became assistant editor that year and is now the Campus Correspondent for Vanderbilt HC as a sophomore. Stacey is currently a columnist for Ask Miss A- Nashville and the life section of The Hustler. She's also very involved in her sorority, Kappa Delta, as well as Invisible Children. Outside of school and her extracurriculars, Stacey finds happiness in many sources, the most crucial being exercise and the sun. She loves to attend exercise classes and is an avid runner; she recently completed the Country Music Half Marathon. She also loves Vitamin D, especially when on the beach- though of course, she only soaks up the sun after applying SPF. A few of the things Stacey couldn't live without? Good food (especially from Sweet Cece's, Bricktops, and Samurai Sushi), great books (The Hypnotist's Love Story is a recent favorite), her family back in Florida, her wonderful boyfriend, and all of the great friends she's made at Vanderbilt.
