Petzl
We’re excited that this episode is sponsored by Petzl! Whether you’re a get-up-before-the-kids-and-get-your-run-in, or a trail-runner-with-big-mountain-goals, you need a headlamp that keeps your path light and bright. We all know that tripping over stuff sucks, and we should do everything we can to avoid it.
If you’re in the market for a new headlamp, we highly recommend Petzl. I personally use the NAO RL and it’s so bright for every occasion. Pick yours up at your local gear shop or over at Petzl.com.
Goodr
This episode is also brought to you by Goodr. Goodr have the slickest shades around, for only $25 and $35. They don’t slip or bounce, and stay on my face way better than more expensive sunglasses.
