I’m not a distance athlete and can’t comment on their gear or thought process.
However, for strength training, I’ve made two small purchases (a belt and deadlift straps). They’ve been both fun and a way to help me in the process. I spent a total of around 40 dollars, so it isn’t quite comparable, but my point is that I can provide one anecdatum that exercise equipment for a hobby can be fun.
- Baeocystin 8y agoGetting a nice pair of lifting shoes made the whole process a lot more fun for me. I was surprised at how much more comfortable they made lifts like the squat. They're pretty cheap, too. Worth checking out if you haven't yet got a pair.
- stochastic_monk 8y agoI’ll have to give some a shot. My plan is to reward myself with a pair when I pass a particular milestone.
