What is your favourite bit of running kit?

[trogdelight]

Mine used to be my shoes, but now I love my new running jacket. My son, of course, prefers his Liverpool training top. How about you?

I love all my running gear...I feel like a completely different person when I'm in my stuff....I do like my running jacket though but I cant keep it on for more than 10 minutes!!

Me.... x

[trogdelight Graduate10 in reply to Oldfloss]

That's very true. You can replace everything else, but there's only one Oldfloss!

Ha ha! Good point

[MummyTum]

I must confess I am very attached to my buff 😊

[trogdelight Graduate10 in reply to MummyTum]

I ask with some trepidation: what's a buff?

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate10 in reply to trogdelight]

Best thing ever..stops drips...snow hail..pull it up over your nose..tuck it under your hat..wear it as a hat..list goes on...

When your buff gets soaked, and it can absorb no more water, it drops unceremoniously down and hits your nose with a thump. Wakes you up! Tee hee

My 5k t-shirt, I did the race 3 days after graduating c25k. Would be even nicer if it wasn't both too big and fluorescent yellow but I'm proud to have run that race with 1600 others only 9 weeks after W1D1 .

[trogdelight Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

That's great.

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

I think like Mummycav I feel different the minute I put all my running gear on . It's as if you go into runner mode . If that makes sense 🤗

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

That's exactly it!! I feel more superior!! Haha x

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Mummycav]

Oh yes 😂😂

My favorite bit of running kit is my red parkrun 50 milestone T-Shirt. I’m very proud of it and went through such a personal transformation journey to earn it.

Next would be my running shorts, Garmin Forerunner 35 watch and running shoes.

I am in awe of everyone who's earnt those parkrun t-shirts. I've only run 5 and volunteered three times so far as I can't do it every week because of taking my youngest to football.

[damienair Administrator in reply to trogdelight]

My wife takes my 7 year old Son to Rugby and I take my 10 year old Son to parkrun. He loves it, most of the time. I have to beat him out of the bed most Saturday mornings.

When the football season ends bring your Son to parkrun. He will have a lovely milestone 10 t-shirt in no time.

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

I should think so...amazing

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

Oh yes Damien I couldn't be without my garmin now 😂

[Tasha99 Graduate10]

My new shoes! I think the low drop has cured my knee issues! Hokas 😍

[JaoJao Graduate10]

Your son is pretty cool! I like him 😎

[Hidden]

I love my leggings with loads of pockets around the waistband and one down the side of each leg. This means I don’t need a bum bag for my phone.

Also my shock absorber bra which immediately put a stop to my back pain.

Oh and my Aftershokz bone conductor headphones so I can hear what’s going on around me.

I suppose I should say everting then as I also love my cap, which means my glasses get less wet when running. 😂

I’ve slowly got that kit that really works for me and makes my running easier.

[misswobble Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I love those tights with the side slide pockets which expand to hold your running grub. Mine look like saddlebags when stuffed with goodies

[MelwynD]

My wireless earbuds, when they work.

[Getfitok]

Lovely that you & your son run together😊 My favourite bit is just getting out there 👣👣👣

[misswobble Graduate10]

I think I like my Ron Hill cargo run capri's best. They are wearing out though and no replacement is available. They have a great big expanding pocket across the back and two side slide pockets for cramming all sorts in. I prefer to travel light but on a longer run i have my phone, door key and food to tote. The 150 ml soft flasks fit down each leg if it's a run when drink is required

I am gutted that they've stopped making them and I can't find a pair anywhere
