GEAR

I asked for wireless earbuds last year for Christmas.  I received a pair of these earbuds that I love. They have 4/5 star rating from over 5500 reviewers and are the #1 best seller in their category. The sound is clear, the battery is long lasting. I love that I can control the music and pause from the earpiece.

 

Shoes are a highly personal choice. That being said, these are my shoes of choice.  I am a bit of an overpronator and after a running analysis at my local running store, these are what they recommended.
