Running gear we love

Watches

We love garmin watches.

Best Option: Garmin Forerunner 45

If you are not a runner and just need a relatively cheap, nonsense watch you can’ wrong with the forerunner series.

The watch includes split times, VO2 tracking and heart rate optical sensor.

Trousers

Tracksmith Session Pants

I have three pairs of these trousers literally the most comfortable versatile trouser I have. My favourite.

I have run a half marathon, done power yoga in them and they are perfect for lazying about the house.

The trousers are well made and can even be used as an extra layer when travelling somewhere to do sports or to the gym.

Shorts

Tracksmith Session Shorts

Ranked top of any reviews on running shorts.

Unfortunately they are not the cheapest on the market but the pure comfort and quality makes it totally worth it.

The carry capability is also not the greatest in the market but personally it’s enough for any gels you may carry.

Gels

Maurten is simply the best gels I have used, it should be noted that this can be a personal thing. I have known people to have issues with various gels in terms of their digestive system.

I never had however if you are one of them note that maurten gels are a ‘hyrogel’ and thus easier on your system during a run.
