A few of our favorites
-
Brooks Adrenaline for men and women. (It
offers moderate support for slight overpronators but can also be
worn by neutral runners.) $94.95
-
The Infiniti (motion control) $119.95 and the
Defyance (neutral) $89.95 are two great new offerings from Brooks.
They have a younger look and following than the Adrenaline.
 Defyance
 Infiniti
-
The Saucony ProGrid Trigon Nothing lasts longer
than the Saucony outersole. This is the perfect no-nonsense
shoe for the efficient runner at a moderate price of $89.95.
-
Saucony Hurricane. (Our bestseller cushy
shoe for women.) $129.95.
-
ASICS Gel-3000 -- a limited-distribution shoe that
comes in above the Gel-2130 and below the Gel Kayano. A lot of
control, priced at $119.95.
-
Mizuno Creation (A higher level of cushion from
the Wave Rider.)
Clothing all runners should
own:
-
A wicking top. (We have several by Brooks,
Hind, and Mizuno.)
-
Shorts with an insert. (These come in many
lengths for men and women. They are also made of technical
fabrics.)
-
Wicking socks. (Coolmax, Olefin,
Polypropylene, wool, or acrylic.)
-
A race belt. (Never have to pin on your race
number.)
-
Visor or mesh hat. (You can fill the hat with
ice in a hot marathon. The visor keeps the sun off of your
face but allows sweat to evaporate.)
-
Skorts for women. They cover more than shorts
and look good on everyone. Great if you need to run errands
after your workout.
A few other necessities:
-
Body Glide (It'll change your life or at least your
running style.)
-
Carb Boom, E-Gel, Clif Bloks, etc. (You'll get tired
of any of them, but at least throw in some variety to alleviate the
lightheadedness during the long events.)
-
Ultima, E-Gel drinks, Nuun. (Nuun is a tablet
that you drop into your water bottle, and it's fizzy. A nice
change from the others. Ultima has four electrolytes and no
sugar.)
-
Power step or Archmold Inserts. (You can't go
wrong with either. We'll heat up your Archmolds in our oven
and mold them to your foot. It feels good.)
-
I-pod holders if you must. (We don't recommend
running with music, but if you must, we have them.
-
Stretch laces for multisport events.
