Sunglasses for running?
I was wearing a hat, but lately I feel like it's trapping my heat in, so I thought maybe a visor or sunglasses. I hate the brightness/sun in my eyes.
Any rec on reasonably priced running sunglasses? That are comfortable, stay in place?

Re: Sunglasses for running?
Not reasonably priced, but I went all out on a pair of Oakleys. I've had them for about 8 years and have no complaints. They are super comfy, stay put and I don't squint at all. I only use them for running. I have a crappy pair for regular use.

Re: Sunglasses for running?
I wear Tifosi sunglasses for cycling and running and I love them. I don't even notice they are there-they fit perfectly (I have a small face) and they are so lightweight. I just wore them for the bike and run course of my half ironman.
BTW, this place has free shipping and returns--my favorite running website.

I use that website regularly! I ordered a pair. The reviews elsewhere seem great & the price is exactly what I was hoping for.
Hopefully the fit will be great!

So it's like Murphy's Law....buy sunglasses and it rains, & rains, & rains!
I think the majority of my runs have either rained, or been in the evening. But I did get a chance to wear them a few times and most recently for 15 miles and they were comfortable. I was even able to wear them on my head when it got darker & they stayed put (maybe because of my headband, but still was comfortable!
Thank you!

Ha! You know, every time I end up racing lately it is raining as well so they end up on my head and not my eyes! Funny but all my pictures from my races look like this with them perched up there. Image Attachment(s):

Re: Sunglasses for running?
I lose and/or break sunglasses really easily, so I usually wear the C9 brand sunglasses from Target while running. There's tons of sporty styles and they're about 15 bucks a pop. Have work them for the three marathons I've run and have no complaints!
