So when we are talking about running gear, there are certain wardrobe items and such I like to have in the summer to make sure I stay easy breezy in the sunny streets. Here are some of my favorite things to wear when it is super hot out.
–Lululemon speed shorts – I love these shorts because they are super lightweight and absorb tons of moisture. I honestly think there’s nothing worse when your shorts are just drenched from running through heat and humidity! I’m all about things not weighing me down either in hot temps so these are absolutely perfect.
–Neutrogena sunscreen- My face especially burns pretty easily so this face sunscreen is truly my jam. Love this too for the rest of my body. It’s not too heavy either. I even wear the face one under light makeup during non running times.
–Deep woods bug spray- Especially in Texas we get super buggy out here. All about survival ya know.
–Brooks summer tanks- Aside from sports bras – these tanks are quick drying and lightweight equals perfection.
–Light colored hats- Brooks really does have some amazing hats like this one. But in general I like wearing white or light colored hats in the summer. Visors are truly great too.
What are some of your favorite summer running essentials?

I like visors in the summer! The top of my head can breathe but the sun stays off my face! And yes to sunscreen– Coola and Kiss My Face are my favorites.
I’m all about some good sunscreen girl! Had a bad episode where my entire back got burnt up a few years ago so I never neglect it now!
i like a handheld bottle for a short run (nathan’s insulated version is my go-to) or a hydration pack for a longer run.
Yes! Of course!! I heart the hydration packs for sure!!!
