Have you ever had any issues with the Polar? It's making me unhappy lol. I like that Under Armour head piece. Is it available in other colors?
ReplyDeleteI'm madly in love with my UA headband/earwarmer! The one that I have is pink with pink lining on one side and then gray with pink lining on the other side. I believe that teal/gray and magenta/black combos are available.
DeleteThose are all super cute gift ideas. I wish I had the motivation to be a runner. I did an 8K about 3 years ago, my very first race. It felt like a huge accomplishment when I completed it. Hopefully it won't be my last!
ReplyDeleteYou should totally do another race chica! You just need to get bit by the race bug again. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteGreat gift ideas, my dad has been eyeing my fitbit so that's what I'm gonna get him for Christmas. He's not all that tech savvy so I am glad it will be easy for him to use
ReplyDeleteOmgosh---the FitBit is amazingly easy to use and even easier to get addicted to. He'll LOVE it!
DeleteGreat gift ideas KLP! I would love a fitbit.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed that Santa brings you one!
DeleteThese are some nice runner gifts. One thing I know i am looking for is a light yet warm running jacket for Winter runs.
ReplyDeleteEarlier this month I picked up an under armour infrared zip up jacket. I LOVE IT. It's lightweight, ridiculously warm and it was on sale!
DeleteI NEED one of those headbands! Walking across campus is brutal enough!
ReplyDeleteSee...I have this condition...where if my ears are cold...I hate life...so...
DeleteDon't expect to see my ears until Spring. LOL!
All ten gifts are really superb! I was looking for the gifts for runners, but after landing on your blog, my seeking has finished now.
