Tech and Accessories

Not all of these are necessary - I first started with just an arm band to hold my phone while I ran.

Garmin Forerunner 245 Music

Track your runs and workouts. This is great if you don’t like to run with your phone or much extra weight. It’s also waterproof, so if you’re into swimming or sweat more than you should, your watch will be fine. You can download apps like Spotify, so music can be stored directly on your watch.

Running arm band

This one actually stays on your arm.

Running beanie

For winter runs. This one doesn’t have a ponytail holder, so I recommend a low pony or braid with this.

Running headband

I like that this one is reflective, and has space for a ponytail.

Mittens/gloves

With these, you don’t have to choose.
