Spring to summer can be a tricky time: the day could start sticky and hot, but just a few hours later thunder may be rumbling. Be sure you’re prepared for anything Mother Nature throws at you with these quality items.

Apparel

You could run in a cotton tee and rugby shorts, or you could be comfortable and make the most of the trails! Be sure to buy technical fabrics that wick moisture away from the skin to regulate your temperature.
