Take a tour of the news program "Tagesschau" in sweatpants? Linda Zervakis dared to do it on International Jogging Pants Day.

Whether in comedy films or sitcoms: A typical running gag is that news anchors are only neatly dressed up to the stomach and things are much more casual under their table. At least on International Jogging Pants Day on January 21st, "Tagesschau" spokeswoman Linda Zervakis (45, "Etsikietsi – In Search of My Roots") confirmed this rumor in a charming and cool way and carried it through the current issue of the news program in blue training pants. She provided the proof in a short clip that she published on her Facebook page.

Shortly after she has been moderated, the camera perspective is changed in the video, and Zervakis steps casually away from her lectern with one hand in his pocket. "Today is international day of sweatpants. Let's go," she wrote about the action. Unfortunately, January 21st is not also the day of the complementary colors – then her ensemble of yellow blazer and blue jogger would have been even more epic.
