I can’t be the only one who hangs a stocking up for my dog. Even if your pup doesn’t get a stocking, any dog lover would appreciate a portable dog dish from Santa. It’s lightweight, easy to tuck into a running belt and durable. It might not be the season for running or hiking with your pooch, but summer will be here before you know it and this little creation comes in handy. Keep in…
I have always found filling stockings a tough task. On some level, it can be easy if you pack it full of running staples like socks, body glide, and endurance fuel packets (all great options, don’t get me wrong). But sometimes it can be tough to pack a big gift punch in a confined space. Epic Wipes may just be the right kind of product to do just that.
Early morning runs. Races. Late evening runs. When I think about all the times that I leave my wife and girls home while I run, it can get a little mind-blowing. That’s not even taking into account days at work, overnight business trips, and grabbing a beer every once in a while with friends. I’m not one of those “the world is going to hell” type people, but I do think that it is good to…
Leg cramps are a real thing – especially in runners. If you have ever had leg cramps (or cramps of any kind), you can attest to the crazy pain that these can cause. While there are certain remedies, including our previously reviewed Pickle Juice – some of the off-the-wall stuff isn’t for everyone. Hyland’s Leg Cramps (Amazon), a product created to relieve the symptoms of cramps in the legs, calves and feet (pretty important body parts for runners), keeps…

Company: Sneaker Balls Price: $4.99 – Amazon Impressions: As someone who runs at lunchtime, I am constantly lugging running clothes to and from work in my gym bag. There is really nothing worse than a bag full of sweaty gear and the havoc that it can wreak on bags. Combine that with running shoes, and stuff can get less than pleasant. Sneaker Balls are small little deoderizers that easily fit into my bag (instead of a spray) and…

Run Oregon sometimes receives products to review. Here are our impressions of Endorphin Warrior and hydraAROMATHERAPY. Endorphin Warriors Training Bracelet (Teresa) I’m a sucker for mantras and inspirational quotes. I know I annoy each and every one of my Facebook friends with my ‘motivational’ rhetoric and my family gets equally annoyed with my ‘uplifting’ artwork in every room. Even knowing that, I can’t control myself. I’m obsessed with the power of positive thinking in pretty much everything,…
Full disclosure – OneLogFire isn’t really a running product. When I first stumbled across this, it was before Christmas and I was looking for a unique gift for my brother, who is just getting into running. He is the kind of guy who will always show up to family gatherings with something off the wall or random, yet crazy awesome. One family reunion, he came with a Skip-It and we all had a blast. He is planning on trying…
It’s no surprise that us Oregonians like a little liquid libations. From the ever-growing number of breweries and distilleries, to running events that come with a post-race beer, wine, or spirit, we seem to do a pretty good job at drinking. Run Oregon has a whole post dedicated to running and drinking. So W&P Design makes some stuff that fits right into a lot of us Pacific NW runners wheelhouse. They sent us a few of…
