I have jumped on the compression bandwagon, folks, and I don't think I'll be climbing off anytime soon! It started with a few knee twinges - no real pain, just a tight feeling in my knee after a long run. I was also dealing with a lot of leg fatigue after long runs. So, I did a little research into some of the new high-tech running gear, and I found these:
They are not inexpensive, but they seem very well-made. And feeling this good after a run? Priceless. I've got a 16-miler slated for this weekend - we'll see how the tights (and my legs!) hold up!
I just ordered a pair of these myself! I'm super excited to finally retire my crappy athletic pants. lol.
ReplyDeleteJill, they are great. Rather like putting on a wetsuit, though, and they take just a bit of getting used to. But my legs feel much better!
ReplyDeleteI've been wondering what these were like. Wetsuit sounds interesting tho.
ReplyDeleteSusie, they're great on the legs. Wish they had something like this for backs!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Have my own pair of compression tights that should be arriving this week. I went with the Sugoi piston 200's though. I can't wait to use them!
