Weather essentials

[Katkins27]

Hi i graduated c25k n now class myself as a runner doing 3 runs a week..and aiming at 8k once a, week! 😊

Now as the weather gets cooler n winter approaches..along with regular rain showers can anyone recommend running gear on a budget 🤔

The only gear i have from this year is Primark running pants a under armour wicking t shirt n a cotton hoodie. Not good enough 😕so need to invest for cold n dark nights ahead please 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Hi. Try checking decathlon stuff. They normally have "basic", "intermediate" and "advanced" range items. I got their basic long sleeve tee to try for the "cold weather" the other week for below 10.

Thankyou. I never thought of them

Yeah, it's one of those places I find is good to go and check what clothing is made of, what's the fabric, how it stretches, before committing. For instance, I'm just feeling very cold in wet weather, so I needed just the thickest tee, and it's hard to define it from pictures in Internet stores.

I haven't tried it but Amazon also have their own sports wear range which looks nice and is v reasonable. I'm tempted by the winter wicking tops at £18 each. It's called Aurique. Decathlon also good. I live in Geneva and Decathlon is almost uniform for all kids as v good value

I have two long sleeved Aurique tops and I love them, defo recommend!
