Although there are some performance benefits associated with wearing lighter sneakers, compression socks, etc., a lot of it can be mental. Basically, when you dress like an elite runner, you feel like an elite runner, and therefore run faster... at least according to this
article. However, I refuse to wear
bun huggers ever, let alone for a marathon, so Shalane and/or Kara and I can never be twins. Now, Desiree does wear "normal shorts", but I've never seen her rocking compression socks, so I guess I'm out of options. Unless I dress like a superhero...
