Woman Running: Light Skin Tone emoji 12 items
Runner's high is one of life's greatest pleasures. The only way to achieve it is to put in the time and work to get to that point. So you might as well enjoy the journey to get there too! A round-up of my favorites as someone who's put in A LOT of mi...

Cold weather

When temperatures drop, but you don't let that stop you from going outside and running!

The perfect lightweight headband to keep your ears warm as the weather gets colder. Still feels breathable, washes easily! One of my favorites for several cold weather running seasons!

The very best vest I've ever worn running. It's warm, but not too heavy. And it isn't bulky, which is the worst while running!

Keeping your toes warm in running shoes in the cold is nearly impossible without wool socks. I've known and warn SmartWool forever and they've never let me down! A variety of styles and lengths for all your sock needs!

I am usually a lululemon fast and free die hard fan for running leggings, but in the colder weather those just don't cut it! Any pair of thicker, thermal leggings are worth the investment if you'll be running a lot in colder temps, trust me!

A must-have for your lips before every run. A oldie but a goodie!
Vaseline Lip Therapy (mini!)

My favorite moisturizer of all time. During the colder months everything gets dry, especially when you voluntarily step out into the cold to run! But this moisturizer is a game-changer, incredibly hydrating and the smell is divine! I even have a trav...

I have now had two pairs of these shoes and they are my absolute favorites! Once you try the Stealthfit, you will never go back to another pair of running shoes!

Higher cushioning than the Brooks shoes, these come in a close second for me. I prefer these shoes for long walks over running, but I did race a half in them! If you like Hoka's you will love these!

The BEST socks I have ever worn while running. They are thick, cushioning in all the right places (and my feet feel so much better after running in them)! I need more pairs!
Adult Feetures Elite Max Cushion No Show Tab Running Socks

Active wear socks are unfortunately very worth it. Sweat-wicking, non-blister causing. All the good things you want from a pair of running socks. I have countless pairs and they are my go-tos!

The best sunscreen I have used to workout in. It absorbs quickly into the skin and doesn't leave a white-cast. Cera Ve is the BEST of the best.

I have tried so many leggings to run in and I keep coming back to these. I have a pair from 10 years ago that is still in my rotation, these are just that good. *You MUST get the ones with pockets, I don't make the rules.
