Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle-when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.

Best Running Sunglasses Ever

Every runner needs a good pair of sunglasses. Especially in the summer when its hot and the sun is beating down on you. I don't know why, but when I wear sunglasses the sun doesn't feel as hot to me. Probably a mental thing. I don't very often run in sunglasses however because all I have are a $10 pair of the "totally cool" huge glasses that every girl wears. They slide down my face when I get sweaty, make my nose feel all weird and give me a headache when I run because they squeeze my head.

When I was asked to write a fitness blog for BTB Sport Optics I was super excited. I looked through their website and immediately fell in love. They have sunglasses for everything sporty! They have special categories for Active, Water, Road and Sports. I was a little nervous because I wouldn't get to try on the glasses before I bought them, but went ahead anyway. I ordered the BTB 850's because they are totally the most stylish ;) 
I am in LOVE with my sunglasses. I can't even tell you enough great things about BTB. I received my glasses 2 days after I ordered them. They came packaged nicely in a micro-fiber glasses case. As soon as I put them on I knew I was going to be happy. They are extremely light and fit me perfectly! They do not squeeze my head at all. I have run and biked in them since and love them more every day. No sliding down my nose at all, even when I am dripping in sweat. They are extremely comfortable, I forget I'm even wearing them. Plus they look cute! (Or handsome, if you're a guy).

I would definitely recommend these glasses to anyone. The most expensive pair they sell (I think) is under $50! They claim all over the website that "Be the Ball Sport Optics are the finest $100 sunglasses you can buy for under $50". Its true. Seriously. Nobody is paying me anything to say this. The glasses definitely have the quality of $100+ glasses but are much cheaper. If I ever lost mine I would buy another pair in a heartbeat. Oh and they have a lifetime warranty. Now that is quality.
