Comfortable Watch

I hate wearing watches, but this one is actually comfortable. It is easy to use and the numbers are easy to read while I am moving. Love the storage capacity to look back on my workouts!

Great product

Carb Boom Big-BOOM! Carbohydrate Energy Gel

Rating for this product: 5 July 13, 2008

I love Carb Boom and this is great for saving the environment! I find it so much easier to eat the gel out of a small flask- no package to put in your pocket to get all sticky!

The best bars!

ProBar Cran-Lemon Twister - Box of 12

Rating for this product: 5 July 13, 2008

Not much else to say other than that. They are all natural with ingredients I understand and the calorie count is twice what other bars are. That makes them a constant addition to my trail runs, long hikes and busy life.

Great Taste

Carb Boom Carbohydrate Energy Gel - Real Fruit - Box of 24

Rating for this product: 5 July 13, 2008

These gels get the job done. The best part is that I can stand to eat them during a race! We used these for our Ultra Relay team and they were a hit, everyone reached for these over any other product.

Rating for this product: 5 July 13, 2008

Bought these shorts for my Dad for Father's Day. He swears "they keep the the old man running faster" and that they are the best shorts he has ever had. They are comfortable and cool in the hot humid summers of Washington DC.

Isn't it great when something just does its job. This drink does what it advertises, keeping me going on long runs and during races.. Not only that, but the tasteis tolerable! I normally have a really hard time getting sports drink down but not this one!

Try these socks!

Rating for this product: 5 June 16, 2008

I love these socks!! The first time I wore them I was instantly converted, it helps so much with blister and keeping my feet cool, I also feel more responsive on the trails. The bonus on this pair is they are better for the environment as well!

Great shoes!!

La Sportiva Fireblade Trail Running Shoes - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 27, 2008

These are my shoes for summer runs. I have others in the closet but always reach for these. They have the responsiveness of a great road shoe while still being stable enough for the rocky trails. I love the deep heel cup and the grip these shoes give in steep terrain.

Perfect for summer runs

Patagonia Airius Running Hat

Rating for this product: 5 April 27, 2008

What more can I say, this hat stays on my head, is lightweight enough to tuck in my pocket and has a great large bill for sun protection. This hat will be on every run and hike I take this summer.

The Clean Green Kanteen!

Backcountry.com Goat Klean Kanteen - 40 oz

Rating for this product: 5 November 30, 2007

This product is the best I have found. I love that I can put tea and sweet sports drinks in it, rinse it out and drink water with no after taste the very next use! On top of that it has environmentally friendly manufacturing and there is no risk of harsh chemicals leaching into my beverages hot or cold! It also makes a GREAT hot water bottle on those cold winter camping trips.

Rating for this product: 5 November 30, 2007

Sigg bottles are awesome. They have been around for years, my dad has one from way back in the day. They are stylish and better for you and the environment than plastic! I have replaced my nalgene, now this bottle goes with me everywhere.
