Your running uniform

vibrams, danskin pants, calf compression sleeves, racing shirt, my interval timer. That's pretty much it. If I'm doing a long run, I bring along one of my camelbacks, and some snacks.

Clothing depends on weather, but I never wear cotton as my base layer.
Ipod shuffle and Garmin
Asics Kayano shoes
good socks
hairband or hat

Also wanted to point out that if you are just starting to run outside, with summer approaching, be very mindful of the heat and humidity. I know it sounds obvious, but it can have a major impact on your performance. Try to plan your runs when the sun is down. In the summer, I like to run at dusk, so I always wear a reflector vest because I am on the roads. I do not recommend running alone on trails in the dark.

Congrats on the C25K...Good luck!

t shirt, leggings, trainers, sports bra waterproof if its raining (I live in Manchester it rains a lot) and my running partner. ( I still haven't managed to go for an outside run alone).

Bluetooth headset (I will not deal with a wire, and I can't wear earbuds)
Polar FT60 heart rate monitor
If I'm running far, SPI(small personal items) belt for phone and keys
Android apps - Sports Tracker and whatever program I'm using (Bridge to 5K App, currently)
New Balance W880GS sneaks
Gap sports bra (I'm blessed with a small chest, what can I say)
Running shorts or any kind of athletic short, I hate pants
Tank top if it's really hot or Nike dri-fit running shirt

(yeah I take a few minutes to set up:))

I live in Fairfield, CT right near the beach so there are some GREAT running spots down by the shore! Sometimes I will go to the local track at city hall or Fairfield University.

sunglasses
tank top
sweat pants/yoga pants
comfy socks
asics running shoes
spibelt with only my housekey, phone (which I use for music), headphones

I don't drink water while I run

I'm now hearing about this garmin but the app MapMyRun seems to track the same things.

Wicking headband (I have a few in rotation)
Ear buds and ipod
C9 Sports bra
Tank Top
Compression knee pants
Anatomical Elite socks from Running Room
Brooks Pure Cadence for short runs (under 5 miles) and Brooks Adrenaline GTS 12 for anything longer
Polar FT60 with Chest Strap and Foot Pod

I will bring my hand held water bottle if it a long run, along with the Cliff Shot Bloks and my phone.

Lightweight breathable shirts/tanks & shorts, clothes that have a barely there feeling. I go for running shorts with 'bloomers'.
Thin & lightweight sports bras (Not blessed, but blessed in my opinion, in the boob dept) love Target's
Polar FT4 heart rate monitor
Arm band for my Iphone - I run the C25k app, Runkeeper & some type of music
Gummy headphones or not, I'll just let my phone play out loud sometimes. I've never had a problem hearing cars, people, dogs, etc. I've realize that I'm very aware of my surroundings.
I carry pepper spray if I'm running alone. I run in areas I'm familiar with though and most of the people that I run near have even told me about their dogs, etc. I live in a small town, even the police recognize me when running now.
Brooks PureFlow shoes. Def get fitted, it's taken me a few pairs of shoes to find the right ones even still but I love mine now.
No sunglasses or hat, love the feeling of the sun beating down on me but def sunscreen!
Bottle of water, I feel like I don't know what to do with my hands otherwise. Plus I tried to not take water one day and had to turn around and go get one.
Key if I'm not parking at a family member's house, but then I just tuck it in the handy little pocket built into most of my shorts.

I run/walk 3-4 miles every other day. At first I thought all of this was a hassle but now when I get 'suited up' I feel soooo ready to get going!

Shorts, tank, sports bra, sunscreen, iPod and road ID dogs. Simple, not cluttered. I'm out to run, not look good. I don't carry water unless it's long distance (greater than 5 miles/1 hr).

For short runs:
Hair tie, sports bra, wicking tank top or shirt, running capris or shorts, good socks and my Brooks Ghost 4 shoes. Polar F7 HRM. Occassionally I'll use my ipod.

For long runs:
Same as above except I add my hydration belt and carry my keys and sometimes a snack in there since I usually run those around a lake nearby that does not have any water fountains.

A tip I learned for not drinking water on short runs is to chew gum instead. I just tried that out recently (not sure why I didn't think of that before!) and it really made a big difference because it keeps your mouth from getting dried out, which was really the only reason why I would drink water before.

Depends on the weather really, but currently, sense it's been hot outside where I live:

Hat
Sunglasses
Sport bra
light weight shorts
Socks
Nike running shoes
Sunscreen
IPod and earbuds (sometimes)

bump

socks, new NB trail running shoes, nike compression shorts, and gym shorts. yep no shirt.

Nike tank-top with a built in bra (I prefer these because I have a small chest and sports bras make my back sore)
Old beat up t-shirt or an old camisole
Basketball shorts
Then I have a water bottle that has a strap so it's easy to carry while I run. It's also got a pocket for my keys.

When outside I just wear basketball shorts, no shirt.

I'm wondering what everyone wears when they go for a run outside. It seems like most people listen to music, but the thought of not hearing the things going on around me kinda freaks me out. I've also seen that some people carry pepper spray for dogs (or creeps probably.) What clothes do you wear? A hat? Sunglasses? What kind of shoes (I know I need to get fitted, just curious?) I'm on week 3 of C25K and looking forward to running outside after I get to running longer stretches at a time (I'm on my treadmill now.) Just trying to get a sense of what I might want to wear when I brave the great outdoors. Also, don't you get thirsty?? I sip water while I'm on my treadmill but can't imagine I'd want to carry water on an outdoor run. Any tips for a novice runner would be great.

I run outside. :glasses:

I do listen to music, but didn't at first for the same reason you mentioned - I wanted to be able to hear things around me. Once I got comfy with my route, I added the music, low enough volume that I can hear traffic, etc.

I wear: shorts/capris/tights, wicking tank or tee, hat or visor, sunglasses (rain or shine!), Asics Kahana 6 shoes, iPhone in an armband, knife tucked into my waistband, Road ID on my wrist, HRM & watch.
