Best Black Friday Amazon deals to shop now
Beats Powerbeats Pro
These earbuds are worth every penny. The punchy bass is great for pacing and their adjustable hooks fit around the ear to make sure they stay in place throughout any workout. Plus, they hardly ever drop this low price-wise, so now is the time to buy.
Beats Studio Buds
These are made for those who prioritise sound quality, with a custom acoustic platform delivering powerful, balanced sound. Choose to let in or drown out the world around you with active noise-cancellation or transparency modes, and enjoy up to eight hours of listening time (24 hours with case).
Apple AirPods Pro 2
These popular AirPods are rarely discounted, so any deal is to be savoured. Thanks to a new H2 chip and amplifier, the 2nd generation has a noticeably deeper bass and clearer sound. Transparency mode, too, is greatly improved with less of the crackle you get when wind passes over microphones that pump in external audio. On the run, they feel lightweight and comfortable and the fit is reassuringly secure.
Sperax Walking Pad
Looking for a nifty way to get your steps in while working from home? This best-selling walking pad arrives fully assembled, with a shock absorbing, non-slip running belt that can go up to 6km/h. Transport wheels also mean you can manoeuvre it around your home for easy storage under a sofa or sofa.
Superun Walking Pad
Another quality under-desk mill, the Superun impressed our tester with its space-saving design. The walking pad is shockproof, meaning it doesn't need a mat to protect your flooring. It also has wheels, making it easy to move around your home (and helping you get a better angle of your TV!).
HoMedics Pro Power Massager Gun
Our experts loved the innovative features of this massage gun, especially the ability to heat up the massage head for a hot pre-workout primer that encourages blood flow to the muscles. Alternatively, you can also freeze another of the interchangeable massage heads (there are six to choose from) for a powerful post-run cool down.
Danish Endurance Cushioned Running Socks
Designed to go the distance, these quarter-length running socks have arch compression and cushioning for comfortable, blister-free running. They wash well, are incredibly durable and dry fast — ideal if you're out on a wet trail. Plus they're breathable, with sweat-wicking ventilation lanes to ensure fresh and dry feet too.
Baby Jogger City Elite 2
This hybrid stroller from Baby Jogger features an adjustable handlebar and hand-operated parking brake for comfortable steering and control. The seat can also be near-flat reclined for nap times on the move, and thanks to rubber tyres and all-wheel suspension, it provides a smooth ride over technical terrain.
4.0 With 12 Month Subscription
Monitor your heart rate, respiratory rate, skin temperature, blood oxygen levels, daily activity and sleep all with this one wearable device. This deal comes with 12 month subscription to the WHOOP app which gives personalised insights, coaching and regular performance reports.
Sennheiser Sport True Wireless Earbuds
Three different sizes of ear adapters and four different sizes of fins combine here to provide you with a customisable fit that our testers found stayed firmly in place. Testers were also impressed with the sound quality, which they felt punches way above the price tag.
Heart Rate Monitor Chest Strap H6
This affordable heart rate monitor accurately tracks your heart rate and calorie burn during any workout. It features BLE 4.0 and ANT+ technology, allowing easy connection to smartphones, tablets, fitness equipment, and sports watches. It's also compatible with popular apps like Zwift, Wahoo, Peloton, and more. The monitor is sweatproof and waterproof (IP67), offers up to 300 hours of battery life and is easy to use and connect for seamless performance tracking.
Under Armour Womens Infinity High 2.0
Whereas most sports bras are made by cutting two breast-shaped cups from flat padding, then gluing and layering pieces of foam on top, the Infinity High bra injects the foam with liquid to create a natural shape that is supposed to move with the figure-8 pattern of the breasts. Combine this with a new front convertible and adjustable strap design, and easy hook-and-eye closure, and you’ve got a super comfortable bra that offers maximum support.
OpenRun
These headphones send audio vibrations through your cheekbones to your inner ears, bypassing your lugholes. This is great from a safety perspective and comes with surprisingly little compromise on sound quality, which is excellent.
Battery life is also solid (roughly eight hours of playback), while a nano protective coating and watertight rubber gaskets make them fully sweatproof and waterproof.
Bose QuietComfort Ultra
Easily some of the most comfortable in-ear headphones we've ever tried (that name doesn't lie), with some of the best noise cancelling out there, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra wowed our testers. The transparency (or 'Aware' as the brand dubs it) mode is also excellent, dulling harsh or explosive sounds but keeping conversation crystal clear, and they've yet to wriggle free from our ears, despite hours of wear during vigorous exercise.
Elite 8 Active
These award-winning in-ear headphones are among the best running headphones you can buy right now. They combine unrivalled durability with brilliant light and lock-tight fit, excellent 14-hour buds battery life and fantastic customisable sound. The compact case is running belt friendly, there’s a comprehensive suite of additional features, too including ANC, Hearthough and Find My Buds.
Active Skin 8
This is one of the best hydration vests we’ve tested – so comfortable and snug-fitting you forget it’s there almost instantly. In testing, there was zero bounce, so zero risk of chafing, and a deceptive amount of space for your kit. It comes with Salomon’s own 500ml flasks, which are longer and thinner than others in order to fit in the front pockets.
Zelafit Running Chest Phone Holder
This running chest phone holder features a special key pocket with key holder on the right shoulder, a waterproof phone and card pocket on the front, and earphone wiring holes (if you don't have a wireless pair). It's made from breathable neoprene material too, and has an adjustable waistband to fit most body types.
Salomon Cross Cap
Super light, sweat-wicking and comfortable, this running cap from Salomon will provide added protection from the elements, come rain or shine.
Enduro Arch Support Quarter Length Running Socks
Running socks can be pricey for their size, so savings are always welcome. Balega Enduro Arch Support Running Socks deliver top-notch quality with Drynamix fibers for moisture control, cushioning for impact resistance, and ventilation for comfort. With compression bands and a secure fit, they’re a durable investment for every runner.
Unisex LED Headlamp Beanie
Stay safe and visible with this LED light beanie. Its detachable LED illuminates up to 30 feet, with three adjustable brightness levels for any environment. Lightweight, warm, and USB-rechargeable, it offers up to 68 hours of use. Ideal for winter training, it's a practical and thoughtful gift for the runners in your life.
Garmin Forerunner 55
Voted 'best for beginners' by our experts, the Forerunner 55 comes with all the basics, including built-in GPS and optical heart rate monitoring, plus 20 hours’ GPS run time on a single charge and a general usage battery life that’ll get most runners through at least a week’s training. It’s small, light and comfortable and though the small screen isn’t as easy to read or as luxe as pricier watches, the display does a good enough job in most light conditions.
Renpho Massage Gun
This versatile (and excellent value) massage gun gives its user plenty of control, with five speed settings and five massage heads to choose from. It can massage quickly and pretty fiercely, but our tester's experience was pain-free. Its manual is helpful, and it comes with a USB charging cable for on-the-go refuelling. The chunky handle shakes heavily at full power, but that was our tester's only niggle, and lowering the speed is a doddle should your arm start to ache.
Beats Studio Pro
We had high hopes when these shiny new Beats arrived at the RW Lab and fortunately, they didn’t disappoint. In fact, they exceeded our expectations thanks to the impeccable sound quality and second-to-none noise cancelling tech. The touch controls on the padded ear cups were responsive and they felt comfortable, even after prolonged use.
UTOBEST Running Backpack
In need of a hydration vest for longer training runs, or simply want somewhere to store your phone on the go? This Amazon bestseller can hold a 1.5L bladder in the back, as well as 2x soft flasks in the front pockets. Oh, and there are three extra pockets for your phone, fuel and keys, too.
Precision Hydration 1500mg electrolytes
These editor-approached electrolytes hardly ever go on sale, so don't waste this opportunity to save 20%. Containing a whopping 1500mg of electrolytes per tablet, they're ideal for long distance training and races. The taste is very mildly citrusy, which helps to minimise flavour fatigue.
Petzl Actik Core Headtorch
This nifty head torch has three modes, with a floodlight and spot beam, plus a red lamp that lets you see in the dark without blinding yourself or your running partners. Plus, the band has 360-degree reflective accents and a whistle built into one of the adjustment buckles.
GO Isotonic Energy Gels (7 Pack)
These are some of our favourite energy gels, each containing 22g of carbohydrates to fuel your long training runs and races. With this variety pack, you’ll never get bored of the flavour either.
Scholl GelActiv Trainer Insoles
With a focus on arch support for runners and absorbing impact and ‘micro shocks’ (30 percent more than regular insoles, according to Scholl), these budget insoles help alleviate the pains and problems that come with running. The impact is spread via Gelavtiv technology that’s located in the insole’s heel, arch and forefoot.
Theragun Relief Massage Gun
The Relief is Theragun's most portable and easy-to-use massage gun, ideal for travelling. It has three speeds and three head attachments to help relieve aches, pains and stiffness after a tough session.
Science in Sport Beta Fuel Gels (30 pack)
Looking to maximise your carbohydrate intake during long distance events? These SiS Beta gels pack in 40g of carbohydrates, so just two of these per hour can help to boost your glycogen stores. Choose from apple, lemon and lime, orange, and strawberry and lime flavours.
Effervescent Tablets x20
These electrolyte tabs help replace essential minerals lost through sweat during your run. Packed with sodium, magnesium, and potassium, they’re designed to keep you performing at your best.
