I ran my first marathon this October!! Here's my biggest recommendations
I was an Apple Watch girl but decided to switch to Garmin when I knew I was signing up. I loved my garmin for training! I loved how easy it was to schedule my runs, put in my routes, track myself during the run and see how I did after I ran.
Garmin Forerunner® 265 | Running Watch
I noticed a big difference with these!! Helps with cramping, help with stomach problems. Loved having electrolytes without having to drink a ton!
SaltStick FastChews Lemon-Lime
Great for the girls who are running alone and want to keep an ear out. Most of my training runs were at 5am and I loved being able to listen to my audiobooks but also hear all the outside noise.
JBL Soundgear Sense | True wireless open-ear headphones
I loved loved loved listening to books on my runs. It made me excited for my next run to continue the book!

There's so many fancy gels but I really didn't mind Gu and I loves the espresso flavor!
GU Energy Gel, Espresso Love, 24 Pack
My FAVORITE shorts. Thick thigh girlie and I wish I could have wore the cute flowy shorts but they just didn't work for me. I bought these in multiple colors and wore them for almost every single one of my training runs.
Swift Speed High-Rise Short 6" | Women's Shorts
For the perfect slick back🙌🏼
Samnyte Hair Wax Stick Styling Cream
I wore this hat for my actual marathon. It ended up being heavy wind and rain and I knew I needed something to keep the rain out of my eyes. They say "nothing new on race day" but this saved me and I honestly didn't even notice it on. It was so light...
