Trail & ultra running from Wild Ginger Running
Sports:Running
There are so many trail shoes, running packs/waistbelts, headtorch, waterproofs, sports nutrition and road running shoes to choose from, how do you decide which is the best for you?
I went to myRaceKit store in Sheffield to meet up with staff member Steve Franklin who shares all the advice you need to choose the perfect one for each of these essential pieces of kit. (socially distanced filming)
Visit myRaceKit stores in Sheffield and Essex for friendly, professional running advice at every level, or browse and shop online https://www.myracekit.com/
This film is powered by myRaceKit - many thanks to them for asking me to create this series of 6 films for them about how to choose various key items of trail and ultra running kit.
We cover trail running shoes, running packs & waist belts, nutrition, waterproof jackets & trousers, headtorches / headlamps, and road shoes.
I hope you will find these useful and informative.
