gift idea for Runners

I have a friend who is very much into running. Does several 1/2 marathons each year. I want to get her something that she will use/enjoy/spurge that is somewhat personal. Any suggestions or idea? Thinking $150~$200 range.

Maybe some running gear/clothing? Does she have a favorite type of running shoe?

I love love love getting gift certificates for lululemon, or really any workout clothing store. This past year for my birthday I asked for lululemon gc's from a bunch of people, added them up and got some GREAT stuff!

I'm an avid runner and I just got two of these (different ones) for my birthday! Check out http://www.medalhangers.com/shop/Running

They ship quick and they're nice! I think I actually have a coupon code so if you decide to order message me!

If you know her preferred running store, I think that would be my first GC. Otherwise lulumon would be a nice splurge.

running apparel and gadgets are pretty personal, so I'm not sure that I would get anything tangible unless you knew for sure.

ITA!
If she runs 1/2 marathons she probably already has a gps watch, and whatever other gadgets she prefers.

A GC to her fave running store is a great idea. Distance runners go through sneakers quickly!

But I also love the idea of a medal hanger. They come with so many sayings/words and i've even seen sites where you can create custom ones!

This is also my favorite running thing ever.... but its personal and she may already have one or something similar. ifitness ultimate II runnig belt - this is a MUST HAVE for marathons even half marathons. External Image
