You don't need much gear to run, but the gear that you do need should be high quality. Get fitted for sneakers that support your feet and running style, and buy supportive sports bras, shirts, bottoms, and socks made of high-performance wicking material to help prevent blisters. If you're building up to longer distances or running in extreme heat, a comfortable hydration pack is key.
