okay, so i did track last year & i was a sprinter. i'm not planning to do track next year, so i don't care if i lose my muscles.. as long as i could get slimmer looking legs. honestly, i have horrible thick legs. even my mom agrees. & i was much skinnier before track. i run, work out, & carefully watch my diet...but i still can't lose any weight/get any skinnier. can anyone PLEASE give me advice?

Excercises like Pilates and Yoga would stretch out those muscles, and give them a more lean-toned look.

Sprinting and Long Distance Running, i do those, it def builds up muscle. It doesn't sound like you are fat or anything, you probably were just born with bigger leg muscles. Nothing wrong with that. I have big leg muscles myself, even when I workout and excercise, they def don't slim down to a model's legs or anything haha.

What helped with me is a combination of Pilates and Running/Sprinting (usually 2-3 miles of running, half a mile of sprinting, 3 times a week). Swimming would help as well.

Don't be so self conscious about those legs of yours.
And during track you def built up leg muscles. Not a bad thing at all, when you stop doing track you probably will lose those leg muscles of yours. It's best to keep working out, you don't have to work out as long and as hard as you did during track, but you still probably should run a few times a week. It's important, you want to be healthy.
