The Perfect Gift for Runners & the Ultimate Race Kit!
Have you ever been (or been witness to a friend or loved one) all excited and on your way to the start line before realizing that you (or they) forgot something - that fourth safety pin for your race bib, glide to stop those blisters that you know will creep up after your halfway mark, your pain reliever to take with your post race recovery drink, that you, well, also forgot. Panic sets in, you sc
ramble around wasting precious time and energy at the start area asking strangers to borrow things that you wish you had just remembered so that you could focus on getting in the mile-long line at the port-o-potty and getting to the start line before you're sent to the last corral, not to mention that you don't know where that Body Glide ™ that you’ve just borrowed has been! At the same time your loved one is still trying to figure out what the heck Body Glide ™ is and why you're putting what looks like to be deodorant on your toes that are going to reek after running that distance anyway?! While we can't help if you forgot to train, we can help you with all the other things you might have forgotten - and help your loved one know what you need. To boot, the Marathon Morning ™ kit is the perfect gift - your loved one saw you in a state of disarray last time, and had no idea what you were asking for (what are Nip Guards ™, where do I get one, er, two, and why do you need gummy candies for a race, oh they’re not candy?), but they can offer their support and help you stay calm, focused and help you channel your inner Prefontaine by gifting one of these bad boys to you just before race day. It was after going through some (ok, many) of these instances ourselves that we realized it was time to do something about it - help the forgetful and help their support crew we thought, and so with that, Marathon Morning ™ was born!
