Amazon’s second sales event of the year, Big Deal Days, is coming up on October 8 and 9, and it’ll be a great time to grab running gear essentials at a discount. Whether you’re looking for running watches or gear to help in your winter training and recovery regimens, there is bound to be something for everyone.

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.

The sound quality is surprisingly good, with rich bass and crispy vocals (albeit a little less clarity in the midrange than pricier models). The noise-canceling mode is as good as any of the more expensive models we’ve tested, but the ambient sound mode is too sensitive to wind noise to be useful outdoors.
