Pro-tec IPS Wrist Guards
We all take crashes when we are on snowboards, and our wrists take the brunt of it. Protect them with Pro-Tec IPS Wrist Guards that have wrist and palm splint protection. They are lightweight, ergonomically constructed for free nonrestrictive movement, and designed to work with gloves without bunching up. They come with a mesh bag to keep them together, and so they're easy to find.
$17.45 
guards are good
The guards work well. The material is a bit different than the pair purchased at a local store, but are much more comfortable than the R.E.D. brand. Would recommend for sure.
Not very good
The strap you use to pull the gloves on broke after one use. Not very good quality.

Training Tips
As a long distance runner, a gradual increase in distance each week will allow you to build a solid areobic base. Distance increase should be no more than 10% of the previous week's distance.
When buying a new pair of running shoes, bring your old ones with you. You will get a better fit if you know if you supinate or pronate.
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
Cross training gives your body a chance to recover while still exercising. If yesterday has a hard run day up and down hills, then today's bicycle ride gives your aching knees a well deserved break.
