All you really need to get started is running gear which can be any sports gear that’s comfortable. Nothing that will fall down or bounce around. Layers are a good idea especially at the moment. It looks sunny and it can get warm once you’ve started running but it’s still pretty cold out.
What I love about running is that I feel like I’m going back to basics so don’t over complicate things and keep it simple.
I recommend the following items:
1. Trainers 👟
2. Running gear – leggings, a high impact sports bra for ladies, t shirt or other sport tops. I like thin long sleeved t shirts. Socks are always good too 😉
3. Layers – another t-shirt or a light jacket 👚👚
4. Headphones that are comfortable to run with – Bluetooth are ideal but I manage to wriggle my Apple iPhone ones with a lead and find them ok 🎧
5. A pocket for your keys (and your hand sanitiser) and ID to be safe 🔑🔑
6. Gloves, hat and cowl (yes it is cold enough and good to cover your mouth and hands) 🧢🧤🧣
