View Full Version : Whats your running gear?
P4PKING_2008 12-16-2007, 10:47 AM What do you use for your roadwork? Like ipod, wrist weights, weighted vest, your everlast tracksuit. etc.
Also, is it true that ankle weights can **** your knees up?
Thanks.

No shirt, no shoes, no ipod. Doesn't matter the weather, be it 30 degrees out or 100 degrees out, I still run the same. If its too cold, I run faster.
Ankle weights **** up your hamstrings where they connect to the back of your knee.
FIGHTING_FLIP 12-16-2007, 04:46 PM longsleeve under armour,a tshirt, a long sleeve shirt and my everlast warm up suit, with my mp3player and worn out jordan running shoes
Spirit 12-16-2007, 06:46 PM ipod nano with locking headset (i just hate it when ur earplugs fall out when you speed up) and a normal sweat suit with an old pair of nike air max shoes. I went 5 miles with a 20 lbs weighted vest last week and my legs felt crushed. I used to run shorter distances last summer and had no problems, but I really wouldn't recommend using any weighted gear when running.
Shorts, pair of my Highschool Sweat pants, long sleeve shirt from baseball and a doo up hoodie. I just wear a pair of old shoes and listen to my mp3 player.
PreetyBoy-Joker 12-16-2007, 11:16 PM Ipod, under armor, with hoodie, 5lb fist weights, and 2lb ankel weights and sweat pants on, with my old newbalances
msagrain 12-17-2007, 07:47 AM what ever really... i just go with the flow as long as the cloths i wear are confertble.

unless ur running inside ur house up and down the stairs, i smell some bull****...
anyay, i run with under armour (in the winter), warm pants, beanie, ipod, mouthpiece, running shoes.
in the summer, jus shorts and a mouthpiece and an ipod and running shoes.

fraidycat 12-17-2007, 09:56 PM Weather forecast for 5 AM tomorrow: mid-30's F with mixed rain and snow.
My running gear for winter:
silk long john bottoms
polypro warm-up bottoms
Coldgear compression shirt
Woolrich wool overshirt
Smartwool socks
New Balance running shoes
black wool watchcap, military-issue, the heavy-duty one you get at surplus stores for $3
microfleece-lined deerskin gloves, treated with waterproofing weekly
10,000 mm waterproof, 3-layer breathable ultralight rain shell -- THE most expensive piece of exercise equipment I own; around $350.
Edit: I don't use an iPod or headphones of any sort. Ever. Too easy to lose myself in the music and fall off a bridge, get attacked by a dog I didn't hear coming, get hit by a car or a bicyclist, etc. Maybe it's the hunter in me, but IMO you would have to be nuts to even WALK down a pitch-dark street with half your situational awareness shot to hell; much less RUN down one.

Banjo7 12-18-2007, 10:52 AM Everlast Sweatshirt with long sleeve shirt under it.
Jogging bottoms
Nike Airmax trainers.
No Ipod as i find them a distraction.
I wear the same gear what ever the weather if its 30 degrees celcius ill just sweat more.

steptwome 12-18-2007, 02:49 PM just about anything is good....it's the footwear thats most important. The Nike Shox Turbo Oz and the Turbo OH are perfect.......crazy light and comfortable.
It's crazy cold out here right now, so currently i do sweat pants, scully, T-Shirt, hoodie, and football jersey and of course the Shox and ipod mini.
