Activewear for Under $75

I go to probably one of the most outdoors-y colleges in North Carolina, but I don't really spend a whole lot of time outside. I've always thought that it was just because I prefer staying in the air conditioning (or the heat, depending on the day) reading a book on the couch rather than being outside where I'd sweat and start to look gross. My newest revelation, though, is that I've just never come up with an outdoor activity I liked enough to actually convince myself to stay outside long enough to accomplish any type of exercise. Because of this, I've created a summer resolution - I'm going to exercise and spend more time outside. To help me with this goal, I created five outfits based on the five most participated in activities in Boone. (Although, at the same time, I'm a broke college student, so each outfit is under $75).
