Nike ACG Ultrafly Trail by Nike — This shoe is by far my favorite shoe for mid-low level technical trail running. The shoe is responsive and fast, and the carbon plate brings the speeeed on any flats
ADV Skin 12L Hydration Pack by Salomon — I like this pack so much I own 3 of them... Comfortable, low bounce, and tons of capacity for a race like Western States, where I'll need to carry 2L of water on some sections
PF 300 Flow Gel by Precision Hydration — This product is AWESOME! Love the consistency, and I love that I can carry 120g carbs in the single soft gel flask
PF90 Gel by Precision — This will be one of my main fuel sources during Western States. I love the neutral taste, and find this product sits well for a long (but hopefully not too long ;)) day
Men's Pro Trail Shorts - Black/Black by Craft Sportswear — I'll use these shorts for most races now. Big fan of the compression lining which prevents chafing. There's some pocket space too where I'll keep my caffeine gels as a secret weapon
Ice RAD-dana by rabbit — Ice bandana is an absolute necessity for long, hot races like Western States. This Rabbit bandana is my go-to
Go Gel / Endurance Gel by BPN — I like to keep a separate gel on board for caffeine. These Go Gels taste great, and give that extra boost with 75mg of caff. I'll take ~7 of these during Western States
Sport Hydration Drink Mix - 20 Servings by REI — During training, I'll buy this same product in bulk bags, but I love having the individual servings which makes it super easy for my crew to fill bottles during the race. This is one of the few electrolyte mixes which I never get sick of the flavor. It's not super sweet tasting, so it stays refreshing in a long effort
Men's Stride Micro Crew Ultra-Lightweight Running Socks by Darn Tough — Can't beat Darn Tough socks. They last forever, and are nice and thin so they are super comfortable. No blisters when I'm wearing these
Anti-Chafe & Skin Repair Tins, Original by Squirrels Nut Butter — Needless to say, Squirrels Nut Butter has saved me from chafing on many occasions...
