Looking for stocking stuffers for the runner in your life but you hate running so you have no idea what to get them? Well I love running and I have put together this list of 10+ perfect stocking stuffers for runners.
Running might seem like a really simple and cheap hobby, but let me tell you, it gets expensive really fast (because it’s a lot of small purchases that add up to a lot). That’s why any runner will find any of these items super thoughtful and useful.
This post is all about 10+ perfect stocking stuffers for runners.
Stocking Stuffers For Runners
Unless I am running with friends, I need to listen to music while I run. I have tried a lot of different headphones but these are my favorites for running.
They stay snug on my ears and are easy to remove/adjust in the middle of a run. As they are noise-canceling, be careful and make sure you are aware of your surroundings.
I carry this mini charger with me during my 10+ mile runs. I use Strava to track all of my runs and it tends to drain my cell phone battery.
Even if the runner doesn’t need to have a portable charger with them, this is still helpful to have in everyday life (I keep it in my purse and it’s so helpful to have).
Sounds kinda boring for a holiday gift but any runner will greatly appreciate it. Help them keep their skin protected on those runs.
I personally don’t wear sunglasses when I run (although I probably should) but these sunglasses are made for runners and are sure to be a stocking stuffer favorite.
I always carried one of these in my water bottle sleeve during my long runs just in case I needed an extra boost of electrolytes.
But mostly I just kept a lot of Powerade bottles in my fridge to make sure I was rehydrating properly after a long run.
When I am traveling and can’t bring bottles of sports drinks with me, I take these propel packets with me instead. All you have to do is mix one of these in your water bottle and it is essentially the same drink.
This is especially helpful for long-distance runners who have to carry replenishing items like gu’s. This is the exact one I used to train for and run two marathons.
I haven’t done much cold weather running, but if I ever do I am making sure I get some running gloves to keep my hands from freezing.
This stocking stuffer will be appreciated by any runner but especially for those runners who live in cold climates and/or those who have cold hands.
Running socks are absolutely essential for runners. They are specially designed for running and make it more comfortable. These are the ones that I use and I recommend them for any runner.
Vaseline has a lot of helpful uses but it is especially useful to runners to prevent that nasty chaffing.
I use this chaffing gel in my everyday life but I also use it for running. The best thing about it is that it is not as sticky as vaseline.
These are the exact energy packets that I have used to run two marathons and are sure to be a stocking stuffer hit for the runner in your life.
