Growing up, I loved using snap bracelets so this find was like a dream come true! It's a snap bracelet that lights up when you use it making it perfect for the early morning and late evening runs. The band holds on well even when you are wearing bulkier clothing in the colder months. I typically wear the band on my forearm, several inches above my wrist.
The band actually has two modes; you can choose to use it as a single light or with a blinking light. I had mine for about 5 months before the battery needed to be changed. This is a super easy process!
I have given this product to several people as gifts and they seem to enjoy it as much as I do. Definitely worth trying out!
I find the Apple Watch Series 3 an indispensable piece of running gear. I love all of the things this watch does. I now wear it everyday.
These are the only glasses I wear anymore.
Pros:
- I love they way they feel- they are really comfortable even if you wear them all day.
- Style- I like the way they look, they're more classic than spaceship.
- Cost- $25-$35
- Polarized
- Frame durability
Cons:
- The lens coating and peal and flake off so take care of the lenses.
- Optical quality is not the clearest, there is some distortion.
The minute I saw these sunglasses in my local running store, Marathon Sports, I new I had to try them! They come in lots of different colors and are really inexpensive. The three different styles that are offered are The Ogs, The Runways, and BFGS. I own four pairs of these glasses and the only style I have tried out is The Ogs.
Pros:
- Glasses stay in place during the entire duration of the run (no slipping or bouncing at all). I have really put them to the test running in all the humidity Minnesota summer's have to offer!
- The lenses don't fog up during my runs.
- Love the color options- my favorite color is called "Nessy's Midnight Orgy"- yes they have very unique names!
- Don't feel cheap even though they only cost $25-$35.
- The bag that is used to store them can be turned inside out and used to clean the lens.
Cons:
- I have noticed that the film on the lens will start to flack off after use. The first pair I had started to do this after about 6 months of use.
I really like these Hoka One One Bondi 6 shoes. They are super comfortable. I wear them for long runs and really like how cushy they are.
It takes a little bit of time to get used to running so high up on a shoe, and they aren't as responsive as other shoes I wear but you cannot beat the cushy comfort.
There is nothing like being 18 miles into a race and feeling like you have cramps in your calfs the size of baseballs. This has happened to me on one too many occasions! Before running Twin Cities Marathon I stopped at my local running store and decided to try out these Salt Stick Caps. They are meant to help maintain your electrolyte level which ultimately reduces muscle cramping. This worked so well for me! I took one tablet every 30-45 minutes during the race and didn't notice any cramping.
