Running with a Buddy

An especially good way to show some appreciation for the running buddy that you see mainly when you’re running together is by planning out a picnic! Even though you love running together, changing up your routine to take a rest day or a cheat day can really show your friend that you love and appreciate them even when your legs aren’t moving! Grab your favorite bottle of wine and some travel wine tumblers so you can share a toast to personal bests and comical misses.

5 Another Virtual Race

Virtual Races by Gone For a Run

Give your Sole Mate the gift of more quality time doing what you both love! A virtual race is the perfect gift for your running buddy! Because the race is virtual, you are not committing them to a schedule, and you can wrap their race swag so they still get all the childlike excitement from opening a present! Opt for a Sole Sister race to show her how much she means to you, or find a race that supports an organization she would love to support!

Pro-Tip: For an added touch, include a little bit about the charity your run supports so your running buddy can feel great about running it forward with you!
