The Ultimate Gift List for Female Runners

“He’s making a list and checking it twice”. Searching for gift ideas can be tough, especially if your friends and family don’t offer up any suggestions. If you’ve got a runner on your gift list, you are in luck! We’ve pulled together our top ten gifts for female runners to make your life easier. 

1. Aftershokz Trekz Titanium Headphones

These bone conducting blue tooth headphones are the accessory every runner needs.  Instead of sitting inside the ear, music is experienced through bone conduction, giving you the ability to hear your surroundings and stay safe while out on the run. Both sweat proof, wireless and lightweight these are the best headphones for running. Most women will need the mini size for perfect fit, but both sizes come in several fun colors!

2. Garmin Running or Multi Sport Watch

You’ve got to give a Garmin…but how do you know which one to give? Just like finding the right shoe it’s important to find the sport watch that is the perfect fit for each athlete. If you are shopping for a female you can’t go wrong with a model featuring, on-trend, rose gold accents. Between the Vivoactive 3, The Forerunner 645 and the Fenix 5 Plus Series, you can find a Garmin that’s your perfect fit.

Vivoactive 3 Music: A great beginner watch! This model features multi sport activity tracking, wrist based heart rate monitor and pairs with your phone for smart alerts and music streaming.

Forerunner 645 Music: This is a great upgrade for a runner who has been using a basic fitness tracker and wants a few more bells and whistles. The Forerunner 645 Music is a complete multi-sport GPS smartwatch that is fully customizable for the data junkie. With advanced running dynamics, the 645m can help tune up your training with its ability to measure cadence, stride length, ground contact time and balance, and vertical oscillation. Compatible with Spotify, listening to music on the run has never been easier!

Fenix 5S Plus: It’s basically the luxury car of GPS watches, but fits under your tree a lot easier! The Fenix 5 Plus Series is a multisport GPS watch complete with music, mapping, wrist-based heart rate, running metrics, three-axis compass, barometric altimeter and much much more. With its rugged design, the Fenix 5 Plus Series is one of Garmin's most durable watches with the longest battery life. The S Model is slightly smaller than the original Fenix 5, perfect for a female wrist. The white band with rose gold face is classic, stylish and has all the bells and whistles of the most advanced Garmin features.
