According to their website, "KT Tape is an elastic sports tape designed to relieve pain while supporting muscles, tendons, and ligaments." Translation? KT Tape is life.

"Disclaimer: I received a Aftershokz Sportz Titanium to review as part of being a BibRave Pro.

I've reviewed a pair of Aftershokz headphones in the past and was pretty excited when I learned that they made headphones without the cord now. I am all about wireless headphones when I run because I hate the feel of the cord inside of my shirt and when I leave it outside of my shirt my arms always get tangled in it no matter what I … [Read more...]
The Buff® Pack Run Cap
When I gear up for a race, I try to pack as lightly as possible... keyword being try.

They hug my arches, which feels amazing, especially when my heels are … [Read more...]

Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews!" When I was asked to review Oofos, I jumped on board immediately. There has always been talk in the running community about recovery sandals and I have felt very "meh" about them-- not really sure if they would live up to the hype. BUT, as someone who has flat feet and suffers with plantar fasciitis, I did want the opportunity to see if these would help with the pains … [Read more...]
