its just something you'll need to put up with, or hang it under your desk to dry? just get some fabreze if it's too smelly

I don't do the run-commute very often but when I do, by far the easiest way of avoiding having minging running gear littering the office is to take the train to work and run home!
Four words in a row there ending with "-ing." I hope I've still made sense.

Hmm, I was thinking about running to work too, would be about 7 miles each way for me, but again I would have the problem of where to hang wet kit - the ktichen is nice and warm, but the EHO would probably get a bit annoyed about skanky kit lying around!

When I do the run commute I run home one evening and back in again the next morning. It means I can have fresh kit for each run, and I don't have to worry about trying to dry the kit at work so I can wear it later the same day. This means I can rinse it out, put it in a bag and leave it in my sports bag in my locker.

Arbster - where I work in London (when I'm not on a client's site) there is (or at least was) a small drying room somewhere on the ground floor, albeit not very well advertised (and nowhere near the changing rooms). I wonder if there might be one in your London office?
I know some people keep a stock of shirts permanently in London and have them cleaned and ironed there. Obviously a bit pricey, but cheaper per shirt than a tube journey.

Hmm - I'll have to hunt around. Maybe I'll be in luck.

Ah, we have lockers too... sadly, a few people who once exercised for a whole week, just after Christmas in 2009, decided they needed to lock up their now-festering kit and never again set foot in the changing rooms...

Changing rooms? I wish! Our shower (1 only) is accessed through the diasabled toilet too and some people have taken to hanging their kit up in there! Lovely when I want to change in the morning into my whites with a soaking wet floor and skanky kit everywhere!!
