Products in this list
- Swiftland 7" Running Shorts by REI Co-op — Every single run I do is in a pair of these shorts. Have ran multiple ultra-distance races in the same pair. No chafe. Ever. Breathable, lightweight, and good storage for keys, gels, etc.
- Forerunner® 265 by Garmin — I've had this watch for over 2 years and have never had any issues with it. Very accurate GPS, good battery life, and comfortable.
- Mount 2 Coast H1 by Mount to Coast — Best shoes I've ever owned. They can do it all. Trails, roads, gravel, you name it. Very responsive and comfortable. Dual lacing system is ingenious.
- HYPERLYTE H1 by Hyperlyte — My go-to fuel for long runs and races. 100g carbs and 1000mg sodium per serving makes the math super simple and takes the guess work out of your fueling. Slightly sweet, neutral, non-overpowering taste.
- Creepers Socks by Creepers Socks — I've ran multiple 100 milers in a single pair of these socks. No blisters, ever. Excellent moisture wicking and hold up well to dirt and debris.
- Salomon Adv Skin 12 Hydration Vest Black S by Salomon — Best pack for race-day. Recently ran Run Rabbit Run 100 in this pack. Plenty of storage for water, fuel, extra layers, and all other required gear for mountainous races. Lightweight, comfortable, and breathable.
- Naked - Original Running Band by Naked — My favorite belt for everyday running. Plenty of storage for my 2 soft flasks, gels/nutrition, keys, my phone, etc. No bounce, non-restrictive, and breathable.
- Leki Ultratrail FX One Trekking Poles - Pair Red 110 Cm by Leki — Recently raced Run Rabbit Run 100 with these poles and used them very frequently throughout. Lightweight and durable. Love the shark grip gloves, makes clipping in and out quick and efficient. Collapse and fold up very easily into a slim package that is easy to store.
- goodr OGs Polarized Sunglasses by Goodr — My everyday glasses. Comfortable, lightweight, and never slip or bounce. Perfect for everyday use, day time runs, and even on race day.
