Now a days running is so much heavier and costly than it used to. From head to toe we run with visor (type of cap and headband), specs (to look cool and prevent dust from blowing into thy eyes), mp3 or music, compression shirt, armband for phone, wrist band for sweat, gps watch, running belt/pouch/bottle for this and that, compression tights, knee guard, ankle guard, special sock and last but not least expensive shoes. Long long time ago people ran NAKED and I pretty sure they are faster than NOW because if they didnt there wouldnt be any descendents. And the first person ever to inspire our modern day marathon ran over 240km in two days to announce the victory of his country saying that we have won then collapse and die. His name is Pheidippides and I am pretty sure he didnt have gps or lady gaga singing in his ears when he was running. Now a days, have we truly grown stronger or weaker that is a million dollar question.
