Actor Dylan Efron, known for his role in "Traitors," has shared details about his fitness routine, particularly his training for marathons and the gear he relies on. Efron, who has participated in the New York City Marathon, spoke about his training methods and the essential items he carries during his runs.
Efron revealed that for runs exceeding two miles, he utilizes a "very lightweight" belt bag, often referred to as a fanny pack, to hold his phone and cards. He described the bag as being so small that it resembles a race bib due to its minimal weight and size. This accessory is a consistent part of his running kit, ensuring he can carry essentials without added bulk.
When it comes to footwear, Efron has been running in New Balance shoes, specifically mentioning the 1080 model. He emphasized the importance of having a variety of running shoes to prevent injuries when logging significant mileage. He also noted his past preference for Nike racing shoes, acknowledging their impact on race day performance.
Beyond running gear, Efron highlighted his attention to personal care, especially in sun protection. He is a proponent of using sunscreen, favoring EltaMD products, including a tinted version. He also mentioned La Roche-Posay for its lightweight tinted sunscreen. Efron stated his preference for sunscreens that are not heavy or thick, as he spends a considerable amount of time outdoors. Additionally, he finds ChapStick essential for preventing chapped lips, carrying it with him consistently.
Efron's approach to marathons includes a flexible training regimen. He previously trained for the New York City Marathon in less than a month, relying on cross-training activities like the StairMaster and cycling in addition to running. His commitment to fitness extends to various aspects of his lifestyle, from his choice of running shoes to his daily skincare routine.
