Top 10 in 2006 - Stuff
Orienteering isn't much of an equipment sport, but I made a couple of purchases over the last year that I've been happy with.
I usually run with glasses to protect my eyes. A few years ago I went through a few months where it seemed like every time I ran I poked my eye. I decided to try wearing glasses. It worked well (though I run without them when it is raining heavily and when I run night O'). For the last year or so, I've been running in glasses from Tifosi Optics. I'm a satisfied customer. They are relatively cheap, but quite good quality (both the frame and the lenses).
More good stuff - Icebugs. I find them more comfortable than O' shoes and, for me, much better when I also wear an Active Ankle. I bought a pair in Sweden at the 5-Days. I've been using them all Fall.
