Unless your goal is to sweat off a few hundred pounds, you don't want to be wearing rain gear while exercising. On a few occasions I've worn gators to keep the splash from soaking my feet and lower calves, but I'm hoping these fenders do the trick. They're a lot longer than the el cheapo ones I had before that were only a few inches long and did practically nothing so I doubt if I'll be modding them.
