Shorts Search
Try saying that 5 times really fast. :)
I am in the market for a pair of running shorts that have little external mesh or mesh-like pockets on the back (usually up near the waistline) designed to hold one's gels. I hope someone knows what the heck I'm talking about because I'm clearly doing a poor job of describing what I want. I can't seem to find this type of shorts anywhere, although I routinely see people wearing them at the park I run at on the weekends. Does anyone know where I can find this type of shorts? I have always pinned my gels to my regular running shorts and that's worked out decently, but I thought I'd like to give these other shorts a try.

Hey, I wear Moving Comfort shorts with a zipper pocket in the back, the gel sits sidways in the pocket about 2 inches down from the waistband. I like them a lot. They're called "Pocket Runners". Here's the RRS link:

I have never tried them, but I know others that like race ready shorts. http://www.raceready.com/

Thanks for the tips guys. You knew exactly what I was talking about! I haven't made my decision quite yet but either of these choices will be good.
