With many types of running shorts and dryfit clothing in general, it says on the tag to wash cold and tumble dry.
I usually wash everything cold because I have that Tide coldwater stuff but is there any real harm to putting that type of clothing through the dryer at medium heat?
I wash running stuff cold and dry on high heat. No harm no foul.
I don't wash every day though, many days I just through my wet clothes in the dryer with a bounce sheet and they are good to go in 10 minutes.
Right now I wash my shorts in the shower with shampoo after every run and let them air dry. I used to let them dry then wash them in the laundry but they got stank so I don't do that anymore.
I wash everything in hot water and dry on the super hot cycle after each and every wear. When it gets old/worn out, I repleace it. I'd rather not smell and spend a few extra bucks on clothes every now and then.

OK, where is the trailer park?
I don't live in a trailer park.
I've had too many articles of clothing prematurely wear out from drying. I wash all "technical" clothing using cold water and I hang them to dry. This includes shirts/tank tops, shorts, and socks.
To answer your question, no there isn't any harm in doing that.
I also wash my shorts in the shower and hang dry them. I don't live in Appalachia or a trailer park. It's just a lot easier to come home after a run and hop in the shower and wash myself and the shorts.
