We’re fully outfitted in the pink tanks, sneakers and ribbons that are raising awareness and funds for breast cancer research. What we’re even more excited about though, is the sports equipment that’s also supporting the cause and encouraging the cardio activity that can help prevent the disease.
Support breast cancer research and the area the disease afflicts with New Balance’s “Ventilator Crop” sports bra ($39.95). The spacer fabric soaks up the sweat, while the mesh panel keeps you cool and comfy. With an adjustable hook and loop straps, you’ll find the perfect fit.
Fight like a girl determined to combat breast cancer with Everlast’s pink Hook and Loop Training Gloves ($30). This cushy pair contorts to the shape of your hands, to promote proper punching and the two-layer foam eases shock absorbency…to protect the other guy. A portion of each sale is donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
We can’t race for the cure every day, so Cybex devised the Pink Ribbon Run. After buying and registering your pink treadmill, the company will donate $0.10 to the BCRF for every mile you log in October.
Sure your tennis skirt is cute, but make the outfit even more functional when you pair it with Wilson Sporting Goods’ Hope tennis balls($9.95) and racquet ($29.99), whose sales also benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
With all this sweating and supporting, you’re going to need to make sure you keep your own heart in check. Try New Balance’s HRT Fit Komen Heart Rate Monitor($50) which counts your calories and sounds an alarm if your heart races above or lags below your target zone. Plus! Proceeds benefit the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.
