“Roses are red, violets are blue, those would be nice, but can I have some running shoes please?” Most people like receiving flowers for Valentines day but runners, we’re not most people. We actually enjoy getting sweaty, pushing the limits and we run for fun! So, while roses would be nice, what we really want is some new running gear! At Fit2Run we’ve gathered all our experts and made a list of the top 10 gifts every runner would love this Valentine’s Day ❤️.
GU CHOCOLATE FLAVORS
