How are you doing with your holiday shopping?
I’m hoping to make a real dent in my shopping list this weekend. And, in that spirit, now seems like the perfect time to share my annual gift guide for the runner in your life.
(While this post contains affiliate links, all opinions expressed are, as always, strictly my own)
Rockay Accelerate Socks – I am very picky about the socks I wear and tend to not venture outside my comfort zone once I find a brand/style I like. However, I was recently sent a pair of Rockay socks and decided to give them a shot – it was love at first run! These socks are made of merino wool and offer a comfortable fit with no bulk, great breathability, and serious moisture-wicking. The design includes nice compression in the arch and padding in both the toe and heel.
Resistance Bands — After spending a good bit of my summer working with the physical therapist, I’ve come to appreciate the importance of owning a good set of resistance bands. I think every runner can benefit from having a set! I use these PhantomFit bands – they’re durable and reasonably priced.
Headsweats Hats/Visors/Buffs – If you’ve been around here for a while then you know how much I love my Headsweats gear. Safe to say that 9 times out of 10 if I have headgear on, it’s Headsweats. In my opinion, they offer some of the best products out there, which is why I was so happy to be a 2018 ambassador. Use code ATTITUDE25 to save 25% on the Headsweats website.
Magnesium Oil – I discovered Magnum Solace magnesium oil earlier this year and just love how it soothes my sore legs. I have also found that I sleep better when I use it before bed.
Oofos Slides or Flip Flops – These sandals provide a great combination of foam cushion and arch support – perfect for post-run recovery or everyday wear. I live in my Oofos Sport Slides after a run and have been eyeing a pair of the Oolala Flip Flops to add to my collection.
Sharing some gift ideas for the runners in your life! #running #runchat #giftguide Share on XI’m linking up with Lacey & Meranda for the Friday with Fairytales and Fitness link-up!
Happy Shopping!
I’ve heard great things about oofos. Good tip about magnesium oil. I need some of that.

I love those Rockay socks–in fact, I’ll be wearing mine to my race tomorrow (under my long holiday stockings!)
I’m intrigued by the Magnesium oil.

Oofos really are the best!
I need to check out the magnesium oil. That’s one thing I’ve heard about but haven’t tried for myself yet.
Let me know if you give it a try!
I use resistance bands for most of my workouts always great for travel as well. Oofos really are fantastic aren’t they?

I actually first learned about Oofos from a friend with PF.
I swear by magnesium oil. Such an effective product. I got my first pair of Oofos a couple of months ago. Love them!

I think I need a fresh pair of Oofos. I’ve had mine for a few years!

I am always a sucker for some good socks! They are so important for the feet of those of us who are always on the go!
Love these ideas! I will have to hint at some to my husband!
