Frequently Asked Questions

What running equipment is good for beginners?

Most new runners benefit from good running socks, a lightweight headband or hat, and a simple running belt for keys or a phone.

Are running socks better than regular socks?

Running socks use technical fabrics that reduce friction, manage moisture and provide targeted cushioning. This helps prevent blisters and keeps your feet comfortable over longer distances.

How do I choose the right running vest?

Look for a vest that fits snugly without bouncing, offers enough storage for your route, and includes hydration options if you’re running longer distances. Up & Running stocks a range of fits and capacities to suit different needs.

Are headbands useful for running?

Yes, headbands help manage sweat, keep hair in place and improve comfort on warm or windy days. They’re especially helpful for runners who prefer a lightweight alternative to hats.
