new gear for 2014

started off the year with some new duds. my shoes were beyond old and i really just "needed" some stuff.

shoes: brooks pure flow 3
the sales associate at frontrunner fitted me in these after i told him "i hate shoes." they're lower profile than any i'd had before, i love them! the swoosh is actually pretty white/reflective in real life.

earbuds: yur buds inspire for women
the only earbuds that have stayed in my ear for the entire run. i didn't get the ones with the microphone b/c the last thing i'm going to do while running, is answer a call.

armband: yur buds armband
mine came from target, they had more colors in stock. i used to have a running belt but i hated it. i want nothing around my waist. i love that this has a slot for a key, comes in very handy running in my neighborhood. the sleeve also folds over to keep the phone from slipping out. you know this is my greatest fear.

wrist pouch: sprigs banjees
i bought this after seeing it on pbfingers.com. it's large enough to hold gu and some blocks, but not too bulky. the zipper pouch is great for holding id and keys during races. it does not comfortably hold an iphone 5. on long runs, put the blocks in a baggies, the heat makes them a little gooey.

garmin: forerunner 405
still using this to pace/track. i have tiny wrists and it's not terribly bulky.
