Very helpful insight about the outfit of those who loves running. There are indeed different runners and these runners have also different preferences when it comes to their attires. As for me, I find compression socks (that I often buy at Legs Therapy- http://www.legstherapy.com/ ) as very helpful and can really help me while running and even before and after running.

Great stuff, thanks Andy! I was out of town this past Saturday and very bummed I missed the GGBridge training route! So… I ran a good solid 10 in the beautiful countryside of Sonoma! See you on Superbowl Sunday morning!

Comment on Headphones by Brent

I would never run a marathon with headphones on. While I’ve considered it recently to give me a boost in the final miles, I won’t do it because of how important it is to understand your surroundings (and, as you mention, Andy, focusing on form and pace and whatnot).

I do wear headphones when running outside, but I exclusively listen to spoken-word podcasts at a low volume in order to be able to hear cues for my surroundings. And, I never do during specific training runs that require my attention (pace-related runs — I need to hear my watch telling me if I’m over or under!). If I don’t have running buddies with me, I’ll stock up some interesting podcasts for my longest runs, since it isn’t the mental discipline I need to be working on when I go for 17, 18 or 20 miles.
