Workout Shirts

Just something to have some fun with.

As I've done so many races over the years - at least 800 or more - and with getting back into many of the shirts because I've lost weight over the last year and a half, this is one more thing that will keep me motivated to keep working out and maintaining some semblance of fitness.
