Opportunity to reevaluate my relationship with running, opportunity to challenge myself, opportunity to switch things up.

Beyond devising a new run schedule, much of that change actually occurred in my wardrobe.

A look at them all, below.

Fresh Foam X 1080v14 sneakers

NEW BALANCE

Lightweight yet super cushioned, the 1080s are a classic.

I just got to try the latest model, the v14, and have been loving it.

Its super supportiveI ran 10 miles in them last weekend.

A few runs in, I can already feel the shoe molding to my foot shape.

Intrigued, I bought a similar one before my own 20-mile run.

Better still, the zip pocket has room for gel packs and/or energy chews.

Align high-rise pant 25"

What hasnt been said about the Lululemon Alignleggings?

I have an older version of this quarter-zip in red.

This high-performance style from On is no-fuss in the best way.

It fits just enoughand Karla has one, too!

All Yours cotton t-shirt

My absolute favorite workout shirt.

So soft and roomy, I sometimes sleep in it, too.

And its impressively windproof.

Its lightweight, sweat-wicking, and temperature-regulatingI wore it in grey all last winter.

They have a thin carbon fiber plate which is supposed to help with energy return, i.e.

make you run faster.

Ive been using my Alo mat for years.

Very sleekand probably worth it, if like me, you dont enjoy running in hats.

I get picky about flavor but like the tri-berry most as it tastes the least artificial to me.
