#Runners: Learn about @legendlegwear compression socks! #bibchat Click To TweetIf you’re a newer runner, you may have never realized the benefits wearing compression socks.

I’ve been wearing the Legend Compression Performance Socks for a couple of weeks now and I really enjoy them. They’re easy to put on and extremely comfortable. Normally I’m not a big fan of wearing compression socks while running because they can sometimes feel a little bit too tight – not the case with the Performance Socks. I had a nice run with them for about 4 miles and they worked great – they stayed in place and added a little color to my running outfit.
But I’m a bigger fan of wearing compression socks for recovery. Since I really pushed myself at the Perfect 10 Miler, my legs were craving compression the following day – so I wore the Legend Compression socks to work! It really made a difference. And when I ran my 20 miler as part of training for the Philly Marathon, I made sure to grab the Legend Compression post-run to help soothe my achy legs. For the first time on that run, I experienced calf cramping and my feet weren’t that happy with me either after pounding the pavement for nearly 4 hours, so they needed the TLC! I was pleased to see that the Performance Socks did a great job!
Legend Compression Performance Socks are high-quality and have done a great job of recovering my legs – extremely important right now as I’m training for my first marathon! If you’re a fan of wearing compression during your runs or overall as part of your training, I’d highly recommend giving these socks a try! I really don’t have any complaints since using the product these past few weeks!
