Unless you’re on a treadmill, running is fun because you’re not inside. Trees, clouds, fresh air…none of these things are found behind a desk. Here’s our essential outside running gear.
Grippable Water Bottle:
While we love running outside we do mind the lack of drinking fountains. We found the perfect water bottle for our long outside runs. Your hand slips right inside for easy gripping. Can be found here.
Pants with a Pocket
We’ve bought a lot (A LOT) of workout gear in our day and Forever 21 has provided us with some our favorite tried and true pieces. What we love about running outside in these pants is not only do they have a slim pocket on the side for holding emergency cash, there’s even a hidden pocket on the waistband!
iPod Armband
When we’re running we like sweating to the oldies ie: Madonna “Get into the Groove”. The iPod armband is essential for us. Not only does it keep your iPod nice and tight, having it on your arm makes it easy to access, even mid-stride.
Optional Jacket
Optimistically, we only run in perfect weather, but we won’t let a few rain clouds keep us from getting our outside fix. We die for this Nike jacket because it’s the one thing we own that is as practical as it is adorable. It’s perfect for keeping you dry through little sprinkles and it’s so lightweight that it’s not a pain to carry when the storm has passed.
