Training gear

I've never put a lot of emphasis on training gear. To be honest, I've never had much money so I have always made do with what I have and purchased cheap gear from run of the mill department stores.

However, since meeting my spunky man, I've been slowly transformed. One funky outfit at a time. I have slowly transitioned to performance gear by athletics companies and I never expected to say it but they are worth the additional expense. I have fallen in love with Kate Hudson's line of clothes. Ergo, I've spent all my spare monies on her training gear. I am eagerly awaiting their arrival!

I'm never one to display brand loyalty (though I have stuck with Adidas for running shoes for about a decade because, for me, there is no other that offers the same fit and comfort (and I cover a lot of ks).
So I've dabbled in the world of Nike (their running gloves are a saviour in the cooler months). I love Nike socks but I find that the stitching it a little tight on the cuffs of their leggings so I won't be a repeat customer for that line of theirs. Reebok make a great running jacket.

I am still waiting to find something from Lorna Jane that I can justify spending a fortune on. Same goes with Lululemon. Though I am thoroughly in love with their yoga mat, I cannot justify the expense of their gear.

When it comes to intimates, there's no need to beat around the bush. Seamless is the way to go - no one wants visible panty line! I recently hit the Easter sales and replaced some well worn training bras with some colour to pop on as the weather turns cold and I broach running tentatively like a child dipping their feet into the ocean before plunging into the waves.
