These XC spikes are super affordable and have helped me run mid 17-minute 5k races! They are lightweight and give you the traction needed to race courses with hilly/slippery terrain.

These sunglasses stay on my face even when I'm sweating because of the awesome nose piece and they are so lightweight that most runs I forget I'm even wearing anything!

I wear these socks for every race I run because of how lightweight they are and how my feet never blister from them. They're super breathable and have lasted me for several years now.

These gloves are my go-to because I can still hold/use my phone while I run and keep my hands from freezing up. These gloves are a must for running in the cold weather!

These ear warmers are perfect for runners who don't like hat head or being overheated, but still want to keep their ears warm. This product will definitely help running in the winter more enjoyable.
Brook's Thermal Headband

I always wear these when I run with my apple watch because the holes prevent the band from getting sweating and sliding around on my wrist causing chaffing. They're also always on sale and great to have around!

This belt bag is unique because it fits snug to your waist which stops your stored items from bouncing up and down as you run and it's secure enough to fit heavier items without slouching!

This shirt is the reason I am able to run in the winter weather. It has special thumbhole cut-outs that fold over to form a mitten-like cover, keeping your entire hand warm. Not to mention the entire inside of the shirt is lined with a fleece layer!

Amazing shirt that absorbs very little moisture and doesn't show any sweat stains. The material feels great on the skin and doesn't wear off in the washer!
