Traverse Hydration Pack by UltrAspire — This is an incredibly compact yet spacious vest that I've been loving. This can be a great option for runners using crew or not using crew.
H1 by Mount to Coast — These shoes are so comfortable and adjustable to feet swelling that can often happen in long races! The expandable toe box is unmatched to any other shoes on the market! I definitely recommend getting a 1/2 to 1.5 sizes bigger than your original shoe size as backups
Lumen 800 Solstice by UltrAspire — Having a waist light is a game-changer during overnight events especially during multi-day events. You can really see the terrain intricacies much more clearly, and this waistlight has an incredibly battery life!
Naked® Running Band by Naked Sports Innovations — Have your snacks right at your fingertips with this super comfy, no-bounce waistbelt! I wear this on all my runs and will be surely bringing this to the desert.
Lumen 800 Catalyst Headlamp by UltrAspire — Backup lighting is just an absolute necessity - this is a solid option that has incredible battery life.
W's Sunchaser 50 Hooded Long Sleeve by Janji — I love the desert sun, but holy crap that Arizona sun hits different. Cover up that skin!
W's 4" Trail Short by Janji — Been a huge fan of these shorts for ~3 years now. The pockets, the comfort, and minimal chaffing between the thighs is solved with these puppies.
W's Pace Sports Bra by Janji — I've loved this bra so much that I wore it *everyday* for a year. Finally bought a second one and planning on wearing that everyday for the next... who knows how long?! So so comfy!
Ice Hat by rabbit — Bought this hat 3 years ago and it is such a physical and mental life-saver for those really hot, exposed races where topical cooling is absolutely critical!
ULTRATRAIL FX.ONE SUPERLITE by Leki — These light yet durable poles are always my go-to for any mountainous longer effort!
HYPERLYTE H1 (V.2) by Hyperlyte — This carb/electrolyte drink mix is clutch for me. I used to really like Maurten but this has totally replaced my drink preference: not nearly as sweet and it doesn't have that slippery texture nor does it clump up or sit at the bottom of the bottles!
Tadej Secret Gel by The Feed — holy friggin crap, this stuff is good. I put 4 of these in a 250mL flask and sip on that during long runs. It tastes so darn good (it actually tastes just like mangoes) and the small flask prevents the "gut-bombing" that can happen when downing huge gels at once.
Re-Lyte® Hydration Support Plus Caps by Redmond Life Store — Best electrolyte capsules on the market. The cheapest, highest content of sodium (you can find 200-400mg sodium/capsule). These have saved me on numerous occasions.
90g Alpha Direct Hoody- Charcoal/Plum by Houda Trail — Houda Trail is the best <3 made in the PNW. They can make customizable fits and are such a lightweight insulated layer!
Women's Ultra Jacket (2018) (Size XS Only) by Ultimate Direction — My go-to rainshell
Ultra Pants by Ultimate Direction — My go-to rainpaints
Janji W's 7/8 Trail Tight by Janji — Those desert nights can get *chilly*! These are always my preferred running tights. Pockets and breathability galore!
The Miami Nights Admirer by Pit Viper — Be that diva!!!!
SOFT FLASK XA FILTER 490ml/16oz 42 by Salomon — My go-to water filter!
SoftFlask™ 250ml 2-Pack by HydraPak — These are for sipping on gels only!
COROS APEX 4 GPS WATCH by COROS — Love the maps, battery life, ability to set timers/alarms without disruption to in-activity mode, and it doesn't reset the watch when you charge it during activity! These were major frustrations to previous models. Apex 4 is where it's at!
Women's Trail Midweight Crew by Injinji — I hardly ever get blisters anymore and it's absolutely due to these socks! Been a fan for 9 years now and won't race in any other socks out there!
Bodyglide For Her Anti-Chafing Skin Protectant - 0.8 oz 0.8 Oz by Bodyglide — Been loving this stuff for 5+ years now! I get wicked chaffing from my vest and this stuff can really save me from rubbing myself raw!!
Ice RAD-dana by rabbit — I will always, always, always be having this puppy on me in the desert (or any hot race for that matter)!
Unicorn Snot Original Glitter Gel by Unicorn Snot
Gin Gins Strong Ginger Candy - 3 oz (84 Grams) by The Ginger People
