my whole life i've dealt with extremely flat feet that led to excruciating pain (and an inability to walk/run). i always thought and was told to go for the shoes with max arch support vs. the most comfy fits

these changed the game for me! NO pain, and even helped with the knee pain i was starting to develop during my longer runs!

i love the fit of this line! fits well, but not too tight so that it makes me feel claustrophobic while i run!

my favourite shorts are now discontinued (a marketplace find for me), but these are a similar style and i love the length! long enough to not feel exposed, but also allows for mobility and flexibility!

love being hands-free and able to hold all of the things on my long runs! 

also love the fun colours it comes in — great to be able to be seen on evening runs!

great for shorter runs where you don't need to bring so much stuff (fuel, etc) and women's clothing never has pockets!

extra flasks were always needed. pro tip: put them in the freezer/fridge prior to your run — dual purpose for cooling you down and keeping your water cold!
