New Running Kit

The good people of Simply Sweat kitted me out in some super new running kit this week. I ordered online late on Thursday night and was impressed to recieve the kit on Saturday morning, which meant I could give it a good test on my long run on Sunday. The Website's clear and easy to get around and is stocked with all the leading brands you'd expect at very competitive prices. A nice touch is that you get the chance to view some products on a short 'catwalk' clip which I found really useful.

With the warm weather upon us I got myself a Vest, Shorts and new socks.
