Race Day Weather Watch: Preparing for Any Condition with Under Armour

We’ve seen every type of weather over the years at the Under Armour Eastside 10K.  Whether it’s blazing sunshine, unexpected rain, or a chilly breeze, what you wear can make all the difference in your performance and comfort. These tips and gear recommendations from our title sponsor Under Armour will keep you at your best.

 

Sunshine

Lightweight, breathable clothing is essential for sunny, hot mornings. Consider gear like the UA Iso-Chill Run Short Sleeve that helps you stay cool by dispersing body heat, allowing you to keep your pace without discomfort. A good quality hat, like the UA StealthForm Hat, can keep the sun off your face, plus its foldable! Throw it in your bag or put it in your pocket after the race – no hat travels better.

Rain

A little rain shouldn’t dampen your spirits. The trick is to stay dry without adding bulk. A lightweight, water-resistant jacket, such as the UA OutRun The Storm Jacket, will keep the rain off while allowing you to move freely.

 

Ultimately, the goal is to be ready for any condition, so the weather becomes just another challenge to conquer. With the right gear, you’ll stay comfortable and focused, no matter what race day brings.
