Do You Wear Jewelry When You Work Out?

It says, “Run like a girl.” Best “medal” ever.

Is there anything better than a Tiffany’s box, especially when it’s given to you at the end of a killer half or full marathon like this Nike one in San Francisco? I thought not. And ever since Kristen’s recent post about accessories and athletics, I got to thinking. Although I cherish my “Run like a girl” necklace, I don’t actually run with it on. In fact, when I work out, I only occasionally run with my wedding ring on, I never wear anything on my neck or my wrists, and I’ll occasionally wear itty bitty earrings, but that’s usually only because it’s a race and I know I’ll be taking photos or because it’s a super-special exercise session, like the one I did with Bob (still swooning, by the way). But that’s it. I’m a no jewelry-when-working-out kinda gal. But what about you? Love it or leave it at home?

Would love to hear your reasons why, ladies! I know some of you probably wear some pieces with sentimental or even motivational reasons, while others hate having anything weigh you down. Do tell! (And random side note: Is it just me or are more dudes wearing jewelry when working out these days? Feel free to comment on that, too!) —Jenn
