There is more running stuff in the world than ever before.

Once upon a time, all you needed to run was a moderatly priced pair of shoes.
Now we are told there is stuff we must have.
Running stuff to motivate you.
Running stuff you can consume.
Running stuff you can wear.

The growth of running stuff is out of control. It is now an unstoppable chain reaction.
Running stuff has become a major threat to freedom and the simple pleasure of, just going for a run. It destroys nature and peace, it steals time, space and fouls beauty.
It is relentless, virilent, invasive and for many, addictive.
THERE IS TOO MUCH RUNNING STUFF.
Now I'm bummed that I'm planning on running with the GPS tomorrow.

I think there is more bike stuff than run stuff.

I don't find there is that much stuff. Sure, there's lots of options. But all it comes down to is a pair of shoes, shorts, and a watch. For me at least.

Same here. I never even owned official "running" shorts until the past year and bought my first coolmax shirt just a few months ago.

Say... wasn't all this talk about 'stuff' a standard George Carlin routine?

I guess I don't go back to racing with a shirt until it is in the low 40's. Which Means in January and February.
