I live in Portland, Oregon, where it rains nearly every day and the sun sets at 4:30 pm. But no matter how grim, dark, and damp it gets, I would still rather bundle up and head outside than putter on a public treadmill that has norovirus splashed on every surface. (Sorry! I also don’t have a gym membership.) That’s why I’ve updated our running gear guide with some of the best wet-weather sports gear that has kept me heading out the door.
Be sure to also check out our Best Fitness Trackers and Best Running Shoes guides—and all the gear that helped WIRED’s editor in chief run faster marathons in his forties.
Updated January 2020: We’ve added wet-weather gear and other items like a headlight from BioLite.
