    I thought men called it running "shirtless."

    And no, there is no protocol. Just take your shirt off and run. I live in Florida. Men in shirts look out of place, wookies included. But then I have a thing for wookies, so maybe I just notice the shirtless wookies more.

    OMG...........:laugh: :bigsmile:

    Well for myself I put fancy pasties on, you know one must always look good :) For you I would say you flash a winning smile and a finger gun at any ladies that you run by, and you should be all good. Enjoy

    On "Cops", it's always the tweakers who are running around topless...

    I used to run topless (male of course) even bareheaded. Used to work out in the hot Texas sun the same way when I was a kid.
    After a bout with skin cancer in my later years, I wish I had worn a big sombrero and wore long sleeve shirts/long pants :wink:

    SUNBLOCK! :smile:

    Probably not allowed for females but the sun is out, I feel like running and I need some vitamin D. So I'm going to run outside without a shirt. Is that frowned upon?

    Run in San Francisco. In San Francisco anyone can run topless regardless of gender... bottomless too actually....

    Just reading the title of this thread makes me think of pain...pain in my chest, and pain in my face since I'd probably be slapping myself if I was running topless.

    But I have no problem with anyone going topless - chicks or dudes. Whatever makes you happy

    I'd be more worried about getting sunburn.

    I'm so hairy, when I run "topless" people start singing "Pretty Little Surrey With The Fringe On Top".
    (I live in a very musical area.)

    The college students around here go around like that all the time. People over that age, not so much.

    Males do it all the time in SoCal regardless of age, skin, or body hair condition.

    Wear sunblock or a hat to protect you. You'll still get tan if that's a goal of yours.

    Note: I wanted to add a gif with the wrinkly, super tan old men who run/or rather walk in a running motion near me that I see all the time. Alas... didn't find a gif.

    I have hr strap tan lines...true story. Getting close to the end of the season for that, though. I always wear a shirt when racing, though. It doesn't seem right to not have shirt on then.

    Remember the SPF. Keeps you looking younger.

    Also, unrelated, but reminded me of this:

    I see you're in Ohio.

    Not frowned upon at all.
