running gear, gifts & clothes/apparel links
I get a lot of people coming here from google and yahoo etc looking for running gear so this post is largely for them. This page is a bookmark/link page where you can find running gear, gifts and apparel/clothes that Aaron and I aka completerunning either make or endorse.
First up is our cafepress store where you can find some groovified running shirts, mugs, clocks and more.
Second, the Running Room is probably the most awesome running gear store you’ll ever find. Why do I like the Running Room? Because they are comprehensive and they have top-notch stuff that they stand behind – if you have a problem, they’ll take it back with no questions asked. Oh, it’s also the place I got back into running and where I’ve met many terrific running friends – including my website partner and bud, Aaron.
Just those two items for now but I will be adding a couple more in the next week or so.

Added 11-08-2005: Mountain Equipment Co-op has lots of (you guessed it) mountain climbing/hiking gear but it also has a whack-and-a-half of other sports equipment including some really good running clothing. MEC has only a limited selection of running gear but what they do carry is really good stuff – classic designs with very good quality and the prices are generally very good. And yeah, they ship internationally.

I was in Ottawa on business earlier this year and stopped in two of the Running Room stores. I was very impressed with them. They had a lot of information about local events and they both had organized group runs that meet at the stores. They also had a nice selection of gear. It’s nice to see specialty running stores that seem to care about the runners.
