shoes
the perfect shoe for any runner. I use these for speed workouts, long distance runs, and everything in between. they are a staple and the perfect balance between bouncy and cushioned. every person I’ve recommended novablasts to ends up loving them
asics novablast 5 running shoe
THE race shoe. I’m convinced I’m the fastest runner in the whole damn race when I wear these (I’m not). Genuinely though, I do think they shave a few seconds off my finish time. They are the bounciest and most responsive shoe I’ve ever worn. They are...
nike vaporfly 4 road racing shoe
the old version of the vaporfly is just as good but harder to find online. I love both equally and ran my first marathon in these shoes. a high quality racing shoe with a carbon plate not only speeds up your race time but also helps accelerate recove...
nike vaporfly 3 road racing shoe
my favorite flat sole shoe to wear to the gym as well as every day on the go bc they pair with everything. these shoes & a workout dress? perfect. leggings? perfect. shorts? yep. the list goes on.
On cloudnova 2 shoe
i had the opportunity to try out the newest nike vomero yesterday & it feels like I’m running on bouncy pillows. this true truly feels wild to step into. it is tall & on the heavier side, but running in this just feels like frolicking. I love...
nike vomero premium running shoe
these feel like a more responsive version of the novablasts. It’s wild how bouncy they feel while also being insanely cushioned and comfortable. A major upgrade from the superblast 2, which felt a bit too stiff for me. I love these shoes for moderate...
Asics SUPERBLAST 3
socks
i promise you won’t get blisters in these socks. they’re super cushioned but a bit on the thick side. one of the top pairs i reach for before a run.
nike unicorn socks
feetures makes my favorite socks of all time. they’re comfy and breathable. you’ll forget you’re wearing these socks & these help my feet to not get too hot on long runs.
feetures elite ultra light socks
my other all time favorite sock, just a different cut than the no show one. one is technically ultra light so a tiny bit thinner than this one but both the feetures pairs I have linked are some of the best socks I’ve ever worn in my life, truly. plus...
elite light cushion quarter socks
initially decided to try these bc they’re so freaking cute but they ended up feeling even better than anticipated on my run. absolutely no slippage on my foot or in my shoes. no blisters, perfect balance between thick and thin. My feet aren’t hot eit...
Saturday Strides | Performance Socks
a thinner more compressive version of the Saturday ruffle sock. This comes up slightly higher past the ankle than the ruffle one does. I recommend all Saturday strides socks especially because it’s a women owned small business that has a very high qu...
Saturday Strides Varsity Crew Socks
fuel
i have tried soooooo many gels & these are my go to. the easiest gels on my stomach while running with a neutral flavor, similar to table sugar to me. these give me the perfect boost of energy especially with the caffeine. i love to purchase from...
maurten gel
absolutely love these gels for a clean ingredient running fuel option for any run longer than 60 minutes. if I’m running a workout that will last longer than 60 minutes, i take one gel every 45 minutes so my glycogen stores won’t deplete and i won’t...
HNY+ classic honey gel
absolutely love these gels for a clean ingredient running fuel option for any run longer than 60 minutes. if I’m running a workout that will last longer than 60 minutes, i take one gel every 45 minutes so my glycogen stores won’t deplete and i won’t...

Maurten gel 100
another super clean gel that tastes AMAZING and helps keep me going on long runs. just two ingredients— honey and salt for electrolytes. love that this is a completely natural option and it’s so easy to get down while running. not too thick. I love t...
Himalayan salted honey gel
Untapped are literally just maple syrup. The consistency of these is super thin which helps me to not feel like I need to pair them with water when fueling. I had never thought of just maple syrup mid run, but it works so well. I have never had any s...
maple syrup energy gel
clothes
SUPER high support sports bra. perfect for medium to bigger chested girls. I have like 6 of these for running. I wear sizes 34D and 32D and I’d say these are true to size or a tiny bit tighter than expected, which is what I want when I’m running. the...
lululemon energy bra
My go to for holding my phone, car key, and gels if I don’t have adequate pockets in my leggings or shorts. If you tighten this properly and keep it right around your hip bones, it does not bounce and holds up well over time. I’ve had mine for 3 year...
Running Belt - Spi Belt
not necessarily made for running but these feel like butter. genuinely like you’re wearing nothing. the tie waist band makes it so that there’s no worry they’ll fall down during a run. I’ve worn these for several miles in 30-45 degree weather runs an...
Vuori AllTheFeels™ Legging – Black High-Rise Leggings
