Yes it is just two days before Christmas, but if you are like me you may be behind on your shopping this year and need some last-minute ideas for someone!  Well I have a few ideas for you that you can click a few clicks on your mouse and print out a page or two and you will be covered for this Christmas!  I love getting new running gear.  I especially love getting it as a gift!  Here are a few great ideas for your runner in your life  Some items that I’d love to receive for Christmas or possibly something you’d like to give to your runners are:

Entry into a runDisney race.  You can give a non-Disney Gift card, like a pre-paid Visa or Mastercard for any monetary value and the runner can use that when registering for their runDisney race of choice.  Then for the Expo you can give your runner a Disney Gift card to use for the official runDisney merchandise, food during the racecation or even towards the hotel room.  If you shop with your red card at Target you can save 5% on the purchase of your Disney Gift Card, too!

An Airline gift certificate.  I’d love to get some free Southwest credit to use towards my races!

Entry into a virtual race or an actual race.  I was planning on going to the Jeff Galloway’s Inaugural 13.1 race in Atlanta this year, but due to some circumstances at home, I had to put that race on hold this year.  However, I can participate in the virtual race and will still receive my medal!  Click here for more details.

Jeff Galloway also offers race retreats.  Why not take a little retreat somewhere to relax AND run and learn with Jeff and Barbara Galloway?!

I recently purchased a great new piece of clothing to add to my gear.  A fly shrug.  It was perfect for the Wine and Dine half marathon (race recap coming soon!).  It was a rainy race and I wasn’t sure how the weather was going to be in regards to temperature.  So this was perfect in case I needed to take it off to cool off.  I also used it for the Philadelphia marathon and again it was a perfect addition on a cold morning in addition to my short sleeve shirt and arm sleeves.

Fleece lined running tights are awesome for the winter.  I love mine!  I was lucky enough to find some at Target and at Kohls for a rather inexpensive price.

iTunes gift cards are a perfect stocking stuffer to add music to the runner’s playlists or to download special running apps.  You can purchase the gift card online, print it out or even email it to your runner recipient.

If you have time to get to a store, find your runner the Garmin 220 is amazing. I love mine! It is everything I needed for my first Garmin watch. Now that I am doing some treadmill training I do need to invest in the show pod to help me keep track of mileage while running indoors.

Fitbit.  I don’t have one (yet).  I am hoping I get one for Christmas!  I want the FitBit One because I don’t want to wear a wristband all the time to keep track of my steps and activity.  Target and Kohls has these items, most stores sell them, actually.  So get out there and get one for your runner!  They will love it.  Runners enjoy stats and monitoring their progress.  You can use this in addition to your Garmin to see your total activity for a day, PLUS you can see how well you sleep at night, too!

Runners Box.  Don’t you love getting free stuff in the mail?!  Well you can (sort of).  If someone purchases a runners box subscription for you, you will receive a new box in the mail every few weeks with different runner items to try out.  The prices range between $21 – $30 for a bi-monthly to yearly subscription.  You can purchase a one time gift box or a yearly subscription. What a great idea!  The gift that keeps on giving!  I will be mentioning this to my husband today in case he needs any last-minute ideas.  Thank you to the Mickey Miles Podcast for mentioning it in their holiday gift guide pod cast (episode 225).

Last but not least, if your runner likes to wear costumes for their races, you can add an accessory to their costume with a Jamberry gift card.  You can give them a gift card so they can purchase custom Disney wraps to use with their costumes or even just to purchase the stock nail wraps that come in hundreds of different designs!  Check them out on my site at http://pamfrost.jamberrynails.net.  Or like my Facebook page to see the Disney designs. You can purchase a gift card and print it out immediately to stuff in the runner’s stocking.  Can’t go wrong with that!

Happy Holidays!
