Ok so I have oakley goggles which do have some vents on the lens but find they mist terribly after i have done a few runs and push back up so before investing ( the grand sum of £8) in some anti fog spray I wondered what others do? Or which spray you'd recommend?

I have the muc off one and that worked ok.. ive heard a bit of washing up liquid does the trick as well. its worth experimenting

Since I switched of better vented lenses I haven't had to worry however...

If you have them on your face when you are not moving they will fog end of

Before a run I sometimes swing mine about a bit to clear them then pop them on and off I go

Hand soap also works, smear it on then polish it off.

Use a pencil to push some holes through the thin foam layer above the lense

Agree with this. I pretty much always take mine off after a run. its a bit of a pain riding 4x or my local bmx track as runs are no longer than few mins (if that) but I never had any problems with smiths or 100%s fogging up.

My goggles are old and lenses a bit scratched so went drastic and drilled small holes around the edges works a treat and don't notice them at all

I use the muc-off anti-fog and have had great results, a bottle has lasted 6 months so far with 2 sprays per week.

All great thoughts thanks, though not quite ready to drill through my relatively new Oakley goggles just yet, so will try muc off first.
