My Favorite Running Gear

The Fast and Free tight from Lululemon is hands down my favorite running tight ever.

These leggings are not for running specifically (although I do run in them!) – but they’re just the best leggings out there and I couldn’t *not* include them in a round-up of my favorite gear. These are the softest, most buttery workout tights you’ll ever put on your body. I have them in about 5 or 6 different colors.

These are my favorite looser-fitting ‘longer’ shorts. And I think the 4″ length would work well on a lot of different bodies (unless you prefer longer 8-10″ shorts). These are so comfy you’ll want to wear them for lounging, too, and the split seam and curved hem means there’s plenty of non-restrictive room for your quads!

Confession: I love short shorts. 2 1/2 – 3 inches is my ideal length, so these (in my mind) are perfect. Unlike a lot of other running shorts, these aren’t constrictive at the thigh, so your quads have plenty of room. The waistband is also super comfy and doesn’t dig.

This is one of my favorite lightweight long sleeve layers for running. It’s super lightweight and is made from the most amazing sweat-wicking fabric – but the fit is not clingy or overly tight like a lot of other tech tops.

The best long run and marathoning shorts! These have multiple pockets along the waist, perfect for stashing fuel (and also things like car keys).

Like the Fast and Free tight, the Fast and Free Short is just unbeatable for running. Great compression… pockets… they don’t ride up… what more could you want? I think this length tends to work well for a lot of different bodies, too. It’s not too long or too short.

This was the watch I had for about 6 years prior to upgrading. I can truly say I loved it and had 0 complaints. The fenix model is pricey, so if you’re looking for the next step down, I highly recommend this one!

This is the GPS running watch I currently use and LOVE. I upgraded about a year and a half ago and have been so pleased with it. I love that it’s pretty enough to wear with non-running clothes, since I pretty much never take mine off! I’ve used Garmin watches since high school. The quality is amazing, and their customer service is top-notch!
