Overwhelmed by all the running gear advice out there? Start here.
I’m running my first marathon in NYC this year after getting into running over the past year-ish.
If you’re a runner or have tried to become one, you know that there is way too much out there on all things gear, fuel, shoes, etc.
Let me make it simple for you and just tell you: unless you’re literally a pro, you don’t need to worry about most of that stuff.
This list is just the essentials that I’ve tried and tested over the past year-ish. BTW, I usually jog or run/walk and my pace is like 12-15 min per mile. Keep it fun, walk whenever you want to, and running will become fun, I promise💛
Oh and get your feet measured at a Fleet Feet or similar running store so that you find the right, comfiest shoes for you.
