SHARE

For our upcoming issue, we asked iRun contributors for their must-have summer running essentials. Whether you’re hitting the trails or running a destionation race, here are five picks that you’ll want on your list. Every runner has their preference—whether it’s sunscreen or shoes—so we would love to know what’s making your list this summer. Share your favoruites  and you could score a pair of Goodr sunnies.

This broad-spectrum sunscreen absorbs well and feels budge-proof, so you won’t have it streaming into your eyes during sweaty workouts. Ombrelle Sport Lotion SPF 45. garnier.ca

Lightweight and comfortable to wear while training for your next race, but in a frame that works just as well for life outside of running. Bollé Ada in Matte Blue with TNS Gradient Pink lenses, bolle.com

Hate how running shorts bunch up on you during running? This style won’t do that. Nike Running Tights, nike.ca.

Recovery is as essential to your training as having a pair of running shoes, and the right pillow can make for the best night’s sleep. Endy pillow, endy.ca.

Don’t let jetlag affect your destination race. Snooze comfortably on the plane with a great travel pillow. Ostrichpillow Light Travel Pillow in Sleepy Blue, indigo.ca.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU. For your chance to win a pair of those Goodr sunglasses, tell us one piece of summertime gear that you just can’t live without. A winner will be chosen at random, plus your picks will help all the other runners at iRun Nation!
