    I'm normally at the gym with make up but that's because I go straight there from University, As for the running thing I could imagine how uncomfortable that would be. I won't be trying it.

    I always wear foundation, powder, and mascara, regardless of what I am doing-my face has a lot of scars from teenage acne, and without mascara I look half asleep.

    Thongs-Just something you have to be used to I guess. I have never had an issue unless my sizing was off.

    I do wear makeup to work out. I have never seemed to sweat much in my face... I sweat pleanty in other areas. So, I have never had a problem with my makeup looking bad after a workout. I like to wear it because I feel better and I seem to work harder when I feel my best. Which is why I also wear outfits that I feel like I look good in. Not to impress other people, but to feel my best to motivate myself.

    As for the thongs, no matter what I wear seems to ride up, so it might as well be less material than more.

    Then there are Crocs. I have to admin that I do occationally wear crocs, but in my defence, they are made in Boulder and when I was going to college at CU they were this novel thing that everyone thought was soooo cool. I think Croc sponsored the CU sports teams so all of the athletes had them. I am usually a 3-4 inch heel girl, but I do bring the crocs out occationally to do yard work, etc. However, I have NEVER worn them jogging. Talking about an injury waiting to happen!

    Great questions. It' nice to hear other people insights as to why they do what they do.

    Question 1
    Why do girls put make up on to go exercising? I go out running with a face full of make up and come home looking like a drag queen.

    This.

    1) Make-up ONLY if I'm hitting the gym from the work. I'm too lazy to take it off first, lol.

    2) I don't own anything but thongs, and I run just fine :)

    3) I've never understood Crocs...but to each his own :)

    Ditto!!!

    I love makeup, collect makeup "collectibles", but I don't wear makeup to workout unless I've been wearing it all day. But then again I don't go to the gym, I workout in a treadmill at home.

    Thongs - looks and feels wrong on me, not my thing. I'm a "boyshort" undies kind of girl.

    Crocs? I can see people trying to jog in that and falling to their face. Who in the world would do that?
