Runners are a special type of person. It takes determination and commitment to get up early and go run for miles in all types of weather, day after day. All that hard work certainly pays off! When compared to people who don’t exercise, physically active people have a 60% lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease, and running for just 45 minutes to an hour can decrease blood pressure readings (both systolic and diastolic) by 10-12mgs. Running can also raise good cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of stroke, and lower the risk of breast cancer. With all of these benefits, it can seem like runners are people who have it all! Fortunately, there are all kinds of personalized gifts for runners to remind them of the people who support them and their passion.
Go to any marathon, half marathon, or 5k, and one of the first things you will notice is the wide variety of t-shirts that adorn the runners and their friends. From sponsor logos to matching characters among a team to funny sayings on the back that inspire other runners, the t-shirt is one of the easiest ways for a runner to express herself. Ordering a custom t-shirt for the next race is a great way to show your support.
Of course, what’s a marathon without a medal? Many runners keep their race bibs and completion medals, but aren’t sure how to display them. Running medal hooks and race bib frames or bibfolios are sure to be appreciated. Many hooks can be custom engraved with fun sayings or the name of the runner.
Personalized running jewelry is easy to make and offers a great variety of customization options. From specific race jewelry to medical alert tags, running jewelry is a great gift for men and women. There are charms and tags for all distances and types of race, and designed to fit every lifestyle from the super sporty triathlete to the cute and delicate weekend runner.
Personalized gifts for runners are easy to find and easy to adapt to every recipient. Whether it’s for a birthday, winter holiday, or just the anniversary of their first marathon, every runner loves a custom gift.
