HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST RUNNING OUTFIT
Your running gear can have a lot of impact on your performance and motivation. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner runner or an expert, choosing the right equipment is very important. Here are some final tips for you to choose the best running outfit for you:
What clothes do I need for running?
Invest in clothing that is lightweight, comfortable and that allows free movement. Watch out for the clothing material, it's best if you choose clothes that wick sweat and moisture away from your body.
Which size should I pick for running shoes?
Ideally you want to have some wiggle room between your big toe and the end of the shoe. Here the rule of thumb applies, literally...leave at least a thumbnail's space in between. Normally this can be achieved if you go half or one size more from your normal shoe size.
Which pants should I wear for running?
This will depend on weather conditions and how much protection you need. The most important is that you feel comfortable while running. Fortunately, there's now a big selection between shorts, tights and pants for men and women. Ideally, have one of each so you can rotate depending on the weather and the type of run you'll do.
