“Gearing Up” for #ccahtshareyourstrides
Every runner has a favorite piece of equipment they swear by. The Piece de Resistance, so to speak – like when you were 5 and you got new shoes so you just had to show everybody how fast you could run and how high you could jump. I’ve come to notice we never actually grow out of this mindset; there are entire industries built around this idea that better equipment will make you a better athlete. While it’s an absolute truth that there are functional features that make one piece of equipment perform better than another, I’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) that what works for someone else (or comes in a pretty package), may not be the best piece of equipment for you.
