guide to the best running stocking stuffers

November 16, 2022      5 Comments

Surprise the runner in your life with the best running stocking stuffers around. I don’t know why, but opening a stocking is my favorite part of Christmas morning. For some reason, some of the best goodies are the smallest, and it’s always fun to see what “Santa” brings.

Socks

The obvious answer is to keep with a theme. New running socks totally belong in stockings. Check out the Balega Hidden Comfort No Show Tab for a simple choice that’s bound to be a hit. These are soft, with just the right amount of cushion and I think this Wildberry color way is festive and bright.

Running Sunglasses

I don’t know about you, but I can never have enough running sunglasses, and Goodrs are my favorite. I would love to find a fun style among my running stocking stuffers. To be honest, I ordered You’ll Never Get This Recipe for myself and my upcoming Gingerbread Man 5K, but there are plenty of other styles on my list. At $25-35 a pop, they make nice little treats in that stocking.

Workout Fuel

Instead of candy, a typical stocking stuffer treat, swap in some different varieties of Honey Stinger fuel. If you know for sure what your runner loves, get that, but if not, one of their sampler packs would be much appreciated. Pro Tip: unbox it before adding to the stocking!

Cold Weather Accessories

While it’s not as much of a concern in Florida, things like gloves, buffs, and hats can be awesome stocking stuffers. Brooks Running has super cute winter-themed accessories, like this pom beanie. Who wouldn’t want to wear a hat with those smiling snowmen?

Headphones

Sometimes, good things come in small packages. A pair of Shokz bone-conduction headphones are great for runners, and slide perfectly into stockings. Win win! There are a few styles with different colors if this hue of red isn’t your brand of merry or bright, but this would be a great gift in any shade.

Road ID Accessories

Safety is always in season, which makes RoadID bands a great gift. If you have all the correct info for your favorite person, go ahead and order a band and ID or other accessory. If not, a gift card is a great choice so they can build their own!

Motivate Wraps

Give the gift of motivation with these wraps from Momentum Jewelry. Choose from a variety of colors and mantras, for a sweet running accessory that will fit perfectly in any stocking!

    You can’t go wrong with Balega socks! I use them all the time and they are incredibly comfy.
    I also wouldn’t mind getting a new hydrovest – mine is getting frayed at the edges.

    I would love to find any of these in my stocking! I’ve been wearing Knockaround sunglasses but I was thinking about giving Goodr a try.

    Running fuel and hydration packets are ALWAYS welcome in my Christmas stocking! I always love motivation bands – sometimes, you just need to be reminded of a mantra, when you’re having a difficult run.

    Oooh! I love stocking stuffers. Maybe I should ask Santa for some new sunglasses this year.

In flight? You know it! I’m adjusting my schedu In flight? You know it!

I’m adjusting my schedule a little bit. Right now, I just can’t get up as early as I would like, but that’s ok. Things can be shuffled and rearranged.

Additionally, I rescued a big dog this morning with another neighbor. I heard galloping behind me as I was heading home and was almost tackled by a huge doodle-type. Between us, we were able to call the microchip service and get his address and she went to notify the owner. He wasn’t a good walker and he even knocked me down (very slowly and dramatically) while I held him and waited. He is home safe and sound and I’m wondering how many people carry leashes with them on the run just in case this happens. This is my second rescue in a few weeks. It’s becoming a thing.

Any plans this weekend? Any dog rescues while running?

It was a challenge but I got it done.

Here’s to the first medal of the year! And here’s to so many more!

Did you race this weekend?

Baby, it’s cold 🥶 outside! Peep that frost! Baby, it’s cold 🥶 outside!

Peep that frost!

Solid five miles this morning. I just started the strength training plan I won from @kimrunsthemitten so I was a little sore but I think the frosty air was good for my muscles. 

It’s promising to be a pretty day so fingers crossed for more outdoors time!

How are you honoring this day?

It’s a beautiful weekend for the #staugfilmfest! It’s a beautiful weekend for the #staugfilmfest! We saw @tiger24film, presented by @staugalligatorfarm at the Lewis Auditorium, and it was truly an incredible and thought provoking documentary on the tenuous balance between wild animals in their natural habitat, humans, and the consequences that occur when the two come together. 

There is still plenty of time to check out screenings at three locations this afternoon and evening! Visit https://www.staugfilmfest.com for ticket details!
