Broken Arrow Skyrace - Meikael Beaudoin Rousseau

Everything I will bring while racing the Broken Arrow 23k!

Meikael Beaudoin Rousseau's expert gear recommendations on Rendezvu

Products in this list

Catamount Agil by Brooks — The lightest, fastest, and most nimble trail shoe I've ever worn! This is my shoe of choice on race day for everything from vertical kilometers to 30k trail races. It fits like a sock and strikes the perfect balance of letting you feel the ground while protecting your feet from rocks. You can really trust your footwork. It also has a plate so you get great energy return!
Pro Kit Singlet by Brooks — Light, fast, comfy...exactly what you want on race day!
COROS APEX 2 Pro Black by COROS — I've had this watch for several years and am continually impressed by the battery life. I've taken it on multi-day fastpacking trips with GPS on for most of the day, and it has never let me down. It's simple to use, doesn't overwhelm you with unnecessary data, and the activity screens are completely customizable. 
Pro Kit Split Short by Brooks — Light, fast, comfy...exactly what you want on race day!
Lightweight Packable Hat 2.0 by Brooks — Super light and keeps the sun and sweat out of your eyes!
Ghost Lite Quarter 2-Pack by Brooks — I really like quarter socks because they provide what feels like the optimal balance of protection and lightness. These are light, comfy, and I've never had any blister issues.
SkyFlask™ Speed 500ml by HydraPak — This 500ml handheld soft flask gives you a lot of versatility. My preference is to have it stowed in the back of my belt, but you can also run with it in your hand. It's super easy to refill at aid stations with the SpeedFill cap. I usually start races with one of these full of drink mix and plan to refill as needed at aid stations
Naked® Running Band by Naked Sports Innovations — My favorite running belt! You can carry tons of stuff and it truly does not bounce.
PF 90 Gel by Precision Hydration — The design of these pouches makes it really easy to slurp the gel efficiently and the cap is resealable. I much prefer the simplicity of bringing one big 90g gel over several small gels!
Carb & Electrolyte Drink Mix by Precision Hydration — Two scoops of this in a 500 ml soft flask with water is all I need fluid and electrolyte-wise to start a sub-ultra race. Plus it gives you an extra 30g of carbs!
