Before we all came down with Michael Phelps fever, I told you about the Speedo LZR Racer, hailed as the world's fastest swimsuit. If you've been watching the Olympics, by now you are intimately familiar with the $550 full-body suit that all the swimmers are wearing.
If you want an LZR of your very own, you'll have to wait until October, but you can preorder one now on Speedo's website.

While the majority of you were not big fans of the Olympic gear designed by Ralph Lauren, there were many of you who were. For those of you who'd like to own Olympic goodies and sport the same clothes the Olympians will be wearing during the opening ceremony, Ralph Lauren is now selling the collection online. While I am not sure I want to be wearing a shirt with "BEIJING" across my chest, I do think the little red, white, and blue belt is kind of cute.

I will freely admit it; I am a workout pant fanatic. When you try go to the gym every day, you need a bunch of workout pants or you'll end up with a lot of laundry every day. So I am always on the watch for new pants, especially comfortable and flattering ones.

I know that may seem like a lot of moolah, but you've got to feel this amazing material.

If you're training for a marathon for charity then you're probably looking to get more donations, so one way to be creative and up those charity dollars is with SpreadShirt.com — and design your own gear shop online. Not only can you give away personalized T-shirts to your donators (say you charge $25 for the shirt, which means $10 to create it and the remaining $15 can go to help support your charity), but you can also create your own shirt to make a statement on the race day, or whenever you wear it. I mean, how cool would it be to have your kids wearing a "Team [insert your name here]" shirt as you cross the finish line?

Now that the weather is warming up, it's rain you've got to worry about, not snow. Don't let a little drizzle keep you from exercising outdoors.
This Isis Whirlwind Shell ($79) is not only waterproof, but it's windproof, too, so you'll stay warm in this slightly chilly air.

Target lops another one out of the park as far as I am concerned with these C9 Pants by Champion (extended sizes).

I'm a huge fan of fitness clothes made by Be Present. Check out this halter shirt ($49) made from blended fabric that is 95 percent bamboo and 5 percent lycra. It's as soft as cotton, but this fabric is breathable and wicks away moisture.

When you work out, you get sweaty. Everywhere. Sweaty panties are just oh so uncomfortable.
