Searching for gift ideas for Dad can be tough. He normally just runs out and buys what he wants right? If he hasn’t offered up any hints, but she loves to run or walk, we’ve got a few ideas for you!

TOP 10 GIFTS FOR THE DAD WHO RUNS

DADS WHO LEAD THE PACK:

SAUCONY ENDORPHIN PRO

Thanks to durable foams and protective rubber on the outsole the Saucony Endorphin Pro can go the distance and is built to last, kind of a like a great Dad. The ultralight, springy, PWRRUN cushioning provides maximum rebound stride after stride with the explosive power transfer of a carbon fiber plate. This shoe wasn’t made for chasing personal bests, it was made for crushing them.

HOKA CARBON X-SPE AND CARBON X

With an impossible amount of cushion, exceptional propulsion from a carbon plate and a highly technical upper the Hoka Carbon X-SPE is a high-performance racing shoe fast enough for marathons that remains resilient mile after mile. Meticulously crafted with performance in mind, the Carbon X-SPE will take Dad’s racing to the next level.

The predecessor to the Carbon X-SPE is the runner favorite Hoka One One Carbon X, now available in a new color. With previous colors selling out quickly, grab Dad a pair of the Carbon X for Father’s Day and gift him a maximally cushioned shoe with minimal weight empowering athletes of all levels to fly.

DADS WHO GO THE DISTANCE:

BROOKS GHOST 12

Runners everywhere can’t get enough of the Brooks Ghost 12 on the road to their Run Happy. With just the right balance of DNA LOFT softness and BioMoGo DNA responsiveness there are plenty of reasons this shoe is one of our top sellers.

DADS WHO LOVE TECH:

GARMIN WATCH

Dad can level up his training and focus on beating yesterday by tracking his runs with a GPS watch from Garmin. With so many Garmin models to choose from it can be tough to narrow it down, but you can find the perfect fit for your Dad at Fit2Run. We’ve got several options on sale just in time for Father’s Day, so you can upgrade your own Garmin or treat Dad to a gift he’ll love.

Dads who love tech and gadgets and want all the bells and whistles will love the features of the Fenix 6X Pro Solar. If Dad is newer to running or looking for an easy to use go to watch, the Forerunner 245 Music is a great choice. And if Dad is an outdoor lover with a rugged sense of adventure the Instinct will be the perfect fit.

HYPERICE HYPERVOLT

The Hyperice Hypervolt+ is a state-of-the-art percussion massage device that delivers maximum power and torque for deeper massage and faster recovery. Crazy powerful, but still quiet. Featuring built in pressure sensor technology to give visual feedback throughout the massage to ensure therapeutic sessions are more accurate and effective. Dad can recover or prep for a run with this ultimate treat.
