AMR’s 2017 Holiday Gift Guide

 

This holiday season, don’t end up like Sarah and Dimity: A few years back, they each got a spoon (yes, a spoon!) as a holiday gift from their respective husbands. Instead, we suggest one of these options, which will have you running safely, comfortably, and stylishly. Or keep you motivated for many happy miles in 2018. GIVEAWAY ALERT! Two lucky BAMRS are going to win EVERYTHING in this Gift Guide! To enter, hustle over to Instagram or Facebook and tag us in your favorite holiday photo with the hashtag #AMR2017HolidayGiftGuide. We'll select two random winners on Tuesday, November 28 at 12 Midnight PDT and announce on Facebook and Instagram. AfterShokz Trekz Titanium Headphones; $99.95 (with code AMR) These Bluetooth beauties are unlike any other headphones we’ve tried: They work by bone conductivity, sitting on the cheeks instead of jammed into your ears. This makes them incredibly comfortable—and makes you #SafeAsAMotherRunner, as you can then hear cars, cyclists, dogs, course officials, and spectators. Trekz Titanium sport a wireless wraparound titanium band that stays secure and jiggle-free no matter how many miles you go. (SBS wore her AfterShokz in her most recent 26.2!) CoolCore Interval Long Sleeve Tee; $42 This versatile CoolCore long-sleeve top wicks away moisture to keep you cool (in warmer weather) and serves as a great base layer (warm and dry) for those cooler temps all while keeping you covered. A modern athletic fit and convenient thumbhole openings pair form with function, while the reflective logo and detailing mean enhanced visibility when training, so you can turn it up when the sun goes down. Uncommon Goods Spa Tower; $50 Consider this the tower of self-care power! These five products can revitalize the gift recipient (even if her kids are banging on the locked bathroom door): Peace Bath Soak; Strength Body Butter; Good Fortune Body Scrub; Clarity Mask; and Tradition Soy Candle. All handmade in Maryland with products grown and harvested there. The Spa Tower is one of the many amazing gift options from UncommonGoods, a catalog and website that offers remarkable designs by independent makers; UncommonGoods strives to have a positive impact both on our people and our planet. Another Mother Runner Circle Sweatshirt; $35 Cute and cozy: This sweatshirt is perfect for pulling on post-run--then leaving on all weekend! A play on AMR logo, the navy-and-magenta graphic is a bold 9" circle with the tell-the-world proclamation of “another mother runner” on it. This crewneck sweatshirt is delightfully substantial, made from a yummy blend of cotton and polyester. It’ll quickly become the recipient's favorite! Nuu Muu Ruu-Muu Pocket Dress; $88 Nuu Muu dresses are the original exercise and everything-else dress, dedicated to making active wear fun and flattering. It is a silky polyester/spandex blend that doesn't bunch when layered over leggings, jeans, or shorts. Due to its feel and quick-drying fabric, this dress makes a perfect running partner! The longer length allows it to be layered in any season for comfort and ease. The Ruu-Muu style boasts a back pocket for essentials like a cell phone, keys, or credit card. This dress is so versatile, it goes from the run to the cafe to the office. SBS loves hers as a swimsuit cover-up! (Each winner chooses the dress she loves.) Safety Skin Reflective Skin Spread; $18.95 Safety Skin: such a bright idea for a stocking stuffer! It's like reflective paint you swipe on to bare skin, turning your calves, hands, arms, you name it, into safety beacons on a run.  Apply it like a deodorant or anti-chafe product, then wash it off post-workout. Safety Skin is the first reflective product designed to be applied directly on your skin. Joules Athletics Angie Leggings; $39 Lounge in them, sleep in them, then wear them to run: These designed-by-a-woman-for-women leggings do it all! Made from a moisture-wicking, anti-bacterial blend of polyester and Spandex, these well-priced leggings are super-soft and incredibly light, yet warm enough for most winter runs. One feature we especially adore: The back goes higher than the front to allow for forward motion without, um, oversharing. Train Like a Mother Gift Certificate; Any Amount The truly one-size-fits-all gift! It looks like a virtual gift certificate, but it's actually limitless expert guidance, motivation, camaraderie, and support. The recipient can choose to use it on anything from a 10K beginner's plan up to an ultra challenge (or, new in 2018: Ironman training!). Or she can get a handle on nutrition by using it for a Simply Nourished Like a Mother program. Available in pre-set amounts ranging from $25 to $150, or specify a custom amount. CEP Women's Progressive+ Compression Run Socks 2.0; $60 These CEP beauties are the gold standard of compression socks, providing exceptional support and comfort. The socks stabilize muscles and joins while increasing blood flow, making them ideal for recovery wear and in longer distance races. (Hello, 2018 marathon, perhaps?!) And did we mention they're available in a new, glorious range of colors?!
