Prior to leaving for my hiking adventure to Base Camp Everest I invested in a pair of CW-X’s mid weight winter running tights. Once I figured out how to get into them quickly all was good. They are similar to wrestling yourself into a wetsuit. I decided to test them on one of our tougher 4 plus hour uphill hiking days to Namche Bazaaar. WOW !!! you actually forget you are wearing them, even though they provide a very firm hold. My legs were much less fatigued at the end of the day, they also helped to relieve some of the leg shakes by the end of the day. Expecting to wake up with sore legs after 7 hours of hiking on uneven terrain, I was surpised at how fresh my legs felt barely an ache. Not wearing the tights every day of the climb, I noticed a large difference between when I did and did not. I too am now a convert to the compression craze. As part of Team Running Free Orangeville I was lucky enough to win a credit for more CW-X compression gear and now am loving my new shorts and 3/4 tights for all my running and hiking adventures.
September Update! I just recently was given The CW-X compression bra by for my birthday from my BFF at Running Free Orangeville and I love i! Being a girl that has something up top D, a good running bra is hard to find. I appreciate the stability and comfort the CW-X bra offers without squishing everything flat to my chest. I even unknowingly ran with it on inside out the other day and it still worked great no rubbing or irritation. I am a happy convert to all things compression and look like a walking CW-X add, so if they are looking for an Adventure Travel Company owner and active girl to sponsor PICK ME !!!
