The Triathlete Stocking

HO HO HO!

Do you have a triathlete in the family? Need some stocking-stuffer ideas?


Dear Santa, I would be happy with any of these items!

1. Energy bars- any kind will do! But the minis fit well in a stocking.
2. Chapstick- because we always have dry lips from all the running and swimming.
3. Road ID - I won't ride my bike without this!
4. Anti-Fog spray- for the swim goggles.
5. Secret Sport Clinical Strength Deodorant- because we stink. Yes even the women stink too!
6. Triathlete Magazine- best magazine ever.
7. Nuun- Hydration tablets for your water. Tastes great and it gives you just the right amount of electrolytes.
8. TRI SWIM products - just because we spend a lot of time in the pool doesn't mean we want to smell like one. 
9. Fuel Belt replacement bottles- these little guys are likely to get lost of get gross after a long time. It would be nice to have a new bottle waiting just in case.
10. Sunscreen- I prefer the baby kind. It doesn't rub off and doesn't sting when sweat drips down my face. I can apply it before a race and don't have to worry about protection later on.
11. Sport Gels (GU or Clif Shot)- We go through a lot of these in my house. 
12. Running hat (or a visor)- a lightweight running hat that wicks sweat, controls my crazy hair and not restricting so my head can breathe.
13. Race belt- these are great to have so you don't have to worry about pinning your number to your shirt. It is easy to put on in transition and it also has 2 little spots to hold some gels (#11 above).
14. GU Recovery Brew- Just what you need after a long intense workout. Helps with muscle soreness.
