I love mail truck deliveries... especially when it's a surprise! I could not wait to open it up and check out the contents. I was not disappointed. Look at all these fun RUNNER GOODIES...
This was the latest delivery of StrideBox, a monthly subscription service that delivers a box of curated running products to your doorstep each month... for $15 (shipping included). Whether you're a beginner (experimenting with new products), a consistent runner (trying to find the perfect mix), or an endurance athlete (flying through fuel faster than your car), the StrideBox is a clever way to discover new products on the market.
Items in the StrideBox come from established brands, as well as emerging newcomers, and may range from energy bars, gels, apparel, gadgets and other fun extras. The contents are different each month. Inside the package, you receive a "cheat sheet" describing all the items and even offering some discount for future purchase.
As a busy mother runner, I really like this idea. I hate traffic and stores, and love mail. (It should be no surprise that I do a lot of online shopping.) I like to try new products, but I'm also a little frugal and gun-shy on buying new stuff. The large displays in sporting stores can be a bit overwhelming. Plus, I usually have a 4 year old tugging on my leg, "Can we go yet?" I don't have a lot of free time in stores to read labels, talk with store associates and pick out new products. I typically grab "my usual" in haste... not because I love it, but because I know it will make do.
I'm excited to try out my new stash of run goodies... and StrideBox was generous enough to offer a FREE STRIDEBOX DELIVERY to one of my readers in March. Enter the giveaway via the Rafflecopter widget displayed below. GOOD LUCK! Winner will be announced on Feb. 16. 2013.

I would like to see Sharkies
ReplyDeleteOoh, that looks like a lot of fun! My triathlete friend says that a lot of her tri friends are all abuzz about that skratch labs mix...I need to try that and see if it lives up to the hype. :) I've also been wanting to try the new lemon Gu chomps, so let us know if that's any good.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see Nuun!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a good quality running sunscreen in the box.
ReplyDeleteI am dying to try the lemon chomps, another flavor of anything has never sounded so good!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an awesome idea!!! I would love to see some sort of protein powder in the box, as well as a headband. Maybe some Cytomax drink mixes too. Actually, anything running related is ok with me, lol!
ReplyDeleteI really would like to see anything. I haven't tried a lot of the things that are in it, so it would all be a new experience for me.
ReplyDeleteI love Skratch, so that's promising, but I'd want to see their drink in the box.
ReplyDeleteLove to see some GU roctanes in there!
ReplyDeleteWhat a GREAT idea! Hope I win!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see reflective gear included in the stridebox deliveries.
ReplyDeleteWith summer just around the corner many runners opt to run during the evening cooler temps. We need to be safe out there!
Sharkies, Nuun, Sports beans, or anything new would be great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to try new products, especially while training!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm a newbie runner, I'd love to try any of these items. Ironic as I'm getting into my long runs and need to try all these things. I'd like a headband of some sort that keeps all my whispies out of my face--or a travel/trial size body glide or antichaf stick.

ReplyDeleteWould peanut m and m be wrong to ask for? Probably....I'd love some compression socks!
ReplyDeleteLove this idea! Going to try it even if I don't win :)
ReplyDeleteI'm new to running, so I know absolutly nothing about it. Are there socks for winter running? I'm in Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteHey, me too! I use my compression stockings (knee high) and they work fine for me. I tend to run at an indoor track if it's below 25, though.
DeleteI would love to try the lock laces! But as other stuff I think headbands (none ever stay in my hair and then I wasted my money), maybe some different styles of socks, and I am always glad to get a free energy bar to try out (I hate buying a box of them and then having to choke through them). Gonna go check this out!
ReplyDeleteAnything Hammer, I love everything from that company!
ReplyDeleteI want to try so many of these products! The more I run, the more I want to run and I know that I need fuel. And I'm sure there are many gadgets I'd love but just don't know about! Bring on the StrideBox!

ReplyDeletevegan protein drink samples
ReplyDeletei love how it says towels for men on the package and then in the item description card it says (not just for men)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see different protein powder samples--- I generally like to make my protein drinks (preferably chocolate vs fruit) with just water, nut butter, cinnamon, and chia seeds. Because its so 'bare bones' a lot of the protein powders don't taste great, but I didn't know and I'm left with a whole canister of something I'm not thrilled about.
Always up for new stuff! Thanks for hosting Jess!
ReplyDeleteThese boxes have me intrigued! I would love to check one out and see what they are all about. I'm always looking for new sources of protein and whatnot. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteI'd love to see more of the hammer electrolytes--I love them! Great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see Nuun in the StrideBox!
ReplyDeleteWould love a good protein bar that is low in calories and without all the added "stuff"
ReplyDeleteLooks good! Kind of like Kona Kase. Have you tried that? I've heard of Kona but not this company. I wondered which is better.
ReplyDeleteReflective products
ReplyDeleteI would love to see better first aid items for runners (pain relief, sweat-proof bandaids, tape, etc) and I love the idea of good reflective gear/tape.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see other brands of the gels and chomps as well as Nuun. Maybe running socks too.
