Free Shirt For EVERYONE + Dick's Sporting Goods Winner

Now THAT'S a good bridesmaid!

The middle school locker room has left many a lasting imprint on my mind, most shudder-inducing, but there is one I still giggle about. A girl, NotHerRealName, refused to wear deodorant, claiming that her sweat didn't stink. Oh sure the rest of us smelled like damp dog after an hour of doing pushups on the freshly manured football field (true story) but while she glistened with the rest of us hormonally exploding girls, she didn't think she smelled like the rest of us. Because - in her words - "I can't smell myself." All I can think is she must have been absent the day we got to watch My Body and Me in health class.

I never suffered under the same delusion. I knew I stank then and I know I stink now!

Confession: I throw out a lot of perfectly good workout clothing. It's not that I'm trying to be wasteful but - and I may have mentioned this one or two hundred times - I sweat like a dude. So while my cute definitely non-dude-like tank top may still look decent, if I've had it for more than a few months it has probably accumulated the dreaded workout stench. Once it has passed the point of no return, meaning there isn't a laundry detergent out there that can touch it, I just have to chuck it. I can't in good conscience donate something that smells like swack. I recently had to throw out my most favorite Adidas workout capris (seriously - best workout pants ever; I'm in mourning) because of the stank. Although I have to say the worst offender are my sports bras. The best moment of my workout is when the Gym Buddies and I all sit down to stretch and I lean forward to touch my toes, causing my bra to shoot a little puff of sweaty air up into my face. Never mind a heart rate monitor, I can tell exactly how hard I worked out by how much I offend myself in that moment.

Can you smell yourself when you sweat? Anyone else have a funny middle school locker room story?
