The problem with the best running gear is that it doesn't exactly come cheap. And that's why you should target major shopping events (like Prime Day) to stock up on everything you need to shave some seconds off your PB, speed up your recovery, improve your levels of comfort, and look your best when plodding around town.

For those seeking a comfortable and stable running shoe for logging a lot of miles in, you can’t go wrong with the Asics Gel-Kayano 30, which has been reduced to under $100 for the women’s shoe, while the Asics Gel-Contend 8 is a great option for newer runners that’s just $54 in the sale.

Amazon's October Prime Day is a perfect time to upgrade to new camping and hiking gear. You can save on brands like Columbia, Yeti, Osprey, and more.
