I recently posted a Holiday Gift Guide for Foodies and today I’m back with a Holiday Gift Guide for Runners. I stopped running during mid-pregnancy, so I haven’t logged any miles since the end of June. I can’t believe it has been close to six months since my last run! I miss it and I’m looking forward to getting back out there in the new year and logging some chilly miles.

Below are six of my gift ideas for the favorite runner in your life.

A running belt – the FlipBelt Zipper {$34.99}

I have been using a FlipBelt for two years and I love it. This running belt stretches to fit around your waist or hips and can hold keys, tissues, my cell and headphones, and anything else small that I might need during a run.

Medal Hanger – Runners INSPIRATION Race Medal Hanger {$39.99}

I bought a similar medal hanger as a Christmas gift for my friend S a few years ago to commemorate the many races we have finished together. I think it’s a great way for your favorite runner to display medals!

GapFit Breathe Tee Shirt {starting at $19.99}

I am a huge fan of these GapFit t-shirts, especially for workouts. I have this shirt in several colors. It’s  super soft and washes really well! GapFit also has a long-sleeved version.

Smartwool Women’s Run Socks {$17.95}

I love Smartwool socks, especially the thinner, low cut version for workouts. This women’s running sock is available in a variety of colors.

Bose SoundSport Wireless Headphones {$149}

I’m still using my old school headphones {the free pair that comes with your iPhone}, but I’m thinking about upgrading to a wireless Bluetooth version in the new year after reading so many good reviews. This pair from Bose is at the top of the list for 2016, according to cnet.com.

 

Born to Run {$9.59}

I actually bought myself this book a few years ago and still haven’t read it {I know}. It’s on my list to finish this winter while I’m on maternity leave. Born to Run looks like a great motivational story!
