Runnerbox Part 2

4/26/2015

0 Comments

 
Two months ago I got my first runnerbox and it had some pretty great stuff in it. I loved the waterpak cleaner and I'm still holding out for my hair to get a little longer so I can use the beer shampoo. As good as the last one was, this one is much more relevant to my interests. From Strawberry Banana Super Drinks to some sport tape- almost everything in this box could be of immediate use!

What's in the box?
Clockwise from upper right

ICE3 (aka Ice Cubed): pre-moistened toweletts that provide long-lasting cooling. I'm constantly injured or overheating, so these went right in my camelbak for my next run.

BodyArmor: Natural sports drink. I got Strawberry Banana as my flavor and I can't wait to try it. 

Fruigees: Organic Fruit Snack. I got 24 Carrot Orange as a flavor, and I'm not going to lie, this one scares me a bit. I'm not generally a huge fan of energy gels, but this one says it's thinner then the norm, so I'll give it a go. 

Bumble Bar: delicious looking snack bars. I received 2 of these, in Almond and Peanut.

Rani's Yummy Buttered Oats Shooter: this was the first thing I tore open for a quick snack. It was delicious. I want more and I want them now. 

Lasting Smiles chapstick- all organic and also raises money for the charity Use Your Lips; Smile for a Cause. I lose Chapsticks like it's my job, so it's always nice to have another one.  


Udderly Smooth body cream: Chafing happens, the struggle is real and now I have pocket packs of lotion to help me out. This is obviously a win. 


IPS (intelligent protein snack): I got BBQ Egg White Ch(ips). I'm not a fan of the flavor, but I am a huge fan of chips, so I immediately went online and discovered that they have Aged White Chedder as a flavor. I need those in my life as soon as possible. 

E-hydrate Gel: Like I said earlier, gel's are not generally my thing, but the strawberry lemonade flavor has my interest piqued, so I may give it a try as I delve into marathon training. I also got Mocha flavor. 

E-hydrate drink mix: I love using drink mixes. I normally use Nuun, but the flavors on these look delicious (Red berry and Lemon lime especially) and I'll be busting them out this week. I also got grape and orange. 

Pocketfuel: All natural gel. I got Chocolate Espresso as a flavor and while this is not my normal cup of tea, I do have a few friend who LOVE that flavor in other gels, so I will probably pass it along. 

Run Gum: zero calorie, sugar free gum that is designed to give you a boost. I'm not much of a gum chewer, but my running partner is, so I'll be handing these his way to see what he thinks. 

Go Tape: I tape everything. ankles, achilles, knees, wrist, fascia. I'm a mess of long standing injuries and my arthritis flares at the worst time, so tape is basically my best friend when I run. I've tried Rock Tape and KT Tape and I'm really excited to give Go Tape a try to see how it stacks up. 

That's the box for this month! I can't wait to try it all out and see what works for me. 

Happy Running!
