It’s Friday! Time to link up again with the fab DC Trifecta- Courtney, Mar and Cynthia
1. Honey Stinger Peanut Butta Pro– Why have I never tried this before? It tasted like a Reese’s peanut butter cup and I may have just eaten it for dessert while I wrote this. But hey it has 10 grams of protein so there’s that right? But seriously yum!
2. Sunscreen bands– This pack comes with 2 bands that activate when go out and remind you when to reapply your sunscreen and when to get out of the sun. These are great for kids. Love the idea! Haven’t tested them out yet.
3. Sweat X Sport-High performance laundry cleaning product. Sometimes you just have a shirt that really needs some extra sweat removal wouldn’t you agree? This intrigues me.
4. Primal Sport mud–body recovery mud. Yup mud! Tested this baby out and it felt cool and relaxing. I have a couple of little sore spots these days and this might just do the trick. I’ve been experimenting with a few rubs and gels perhaps this is the one. You apply it and leave on for 20 min or apply and sit in a “hot tub” for 20 minutes. Now that sounds relaxing already. It is certainly different and worth a try.
5. Choopko– Strange name but tasty little snack. Think of these as a Pirate Booty for adults. The only ingredients are corn, peanut and vegetable oil. They are surprisingly good and I may have just eaten those too while writing this. For 120 calories-yes!
I really think this may be one of the best shipments of the Runnerbox I’ve received!
Anybody else get the Runnerbox? What did you think of this month’s haul?
April at RTGWS says
Wow that looks like a great runner’s box! I’m going to find #1 right now! I love Honey Stinger stuff and I love Reeses (the Luna Chocolate Peanut Protein Bar is one of my go to breakfasts/snacks). That looks delicious!!
Deborah Brooks says
It was one of the best bars I’ve had-yum
Lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
It wasn’t until I posted about my stridebox that I heard about Runnerbox. They seem to have similar products, but still I thk I will have to check it out some month.
Deborah Brooks says
I think they are similar. Some months I like it better than others.
John @ run. geek. run(disney) says
That is some good stuff. I got one as a gift from my wife before and it was great. Awesome one off or subscription gift for any runner. I loved all the various goodies to try out.
Deborah Brooks says
This month I really liked the variety of products
Chaitali says
I’ve never heard of anything like that sunscreen bracelet before. It’s a good idea. I never remember to re-apply 🙁
Deborah Brooks says
It is a good idea! Haven’t tried it yet
Sharon says
Wow! Lots of cool things! That Honey Stinger Peanut Butta Pro sounds yummy! I love Reese’s peanut butter cups! 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
Seriously it was so good!
Tara @ Running 'N' Reading says
I’ve never tried Runnerbox, Deborah, but this one looks pretty good! Have you been a subscriber very long? Great post, thanks! Hope you have a fantastic weekend.
Deborah Brooks says
Just a few months. It’s always fun to receive new little samples each month.
Susie @ SuzLyfe says
Love Runner Box, I’ve always want to subscribe. And I agree-those Honey Stingers are amazing! I grab samples at expos, haha
Deborah Brooks says
I’ve not had that flavor before it was really good!
Mary Beth Jackson says
I haven’t heard of this runnerbox! How do you get it?
Deborah Brooks says
It’s a monthly subscription check out their website. It’s kind of fun to get new samples each month of new products. Some months are better than others
Megs says
I must be crazy! I signed up for runnerbox and have loved them….but the box always says “stridebox”. I just double checked the runnerbox site and indeed I have an account with them. When I google stridebox it’s a site I’ve never seen before. Do they work together for some areas of the country? Am I losing my mind? My runnerbox didn’t include any of the stuff you listed! 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
huh? I have no idea! Do you think they do different things in different parts of the country? Perhaps maybe call them or email customer service. Mine def says runnerbox. That’s odd
megs says
My hubby just read this and told me he got stridebox as a surprise gift. So I guess I get both boxes! Problem solved! Can’t wait to get this shipment now of runnerbox!!!
Deborah Brooks says
awesome glad to hear! Hope you enjoy as well 🙂
Samantha @ FoodFitnessFamilyFriends says
All of these sound really great! I really would like to try the Honey Stinger PB bar. Yum!
Deborah Brooks says
I loved it-it really was like dessert 🙂
Haley @ Running with diapers says
Wow! Great installments this month. I suspended my subscription for a while and seeing that honey stinger PB bar makes me wish I hadn’t. I will have to order some ASAP. I love PB & Chocolate
Deborah Brooks says
I know I had thought about that too. This was my favorite one so far.
Annmarie says
This looks like a fun Runnersbox for sure! I’ve been wanting to try it out but haven’t ordered one yet. Thinking I might try the gluten free box and see what I get!
Deborah Brooks says
ooh good idea didn’t even know they had that. I like the non food items too just to see new products.
Courtney @ Eat Pray Run, DC says
oooohh that honey stinger bar. YUM YUM YUM! we will miss your smiling face this weekend, but taking care of yourself is always the right thing to do!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks yea kind of bummed about it. Trying to get better before Ragnar. Have fun!
C.e. says
An interesting line-up of items. The peanut butter bars look great. I’m always munching down chocolate peanut butter Cliff bars ~
Deborah Brooks says
I think it’s better than the Cliff bars-it was like dessert
Lauren @ Lauren's Glass Slipper says
I haven’t heard of body recovery mud before…sounds interesting and very cool! And I agree about those honey stinger bars…they make great desserts!
Deborah Brooks says
I hadn’t heard of it either and eager to give it another test.
Michelle @ Running with Attitude says
Great stuff! I only just recently heard of Runner’s Box – will have to check them out!
Deborah Brooks says
This was a great month of stuff!
Christine says
Love the idea of a sunscreen band!! Need to check this out.
Heather Runs Thirteen Point One says
Wow – all of those items look/sound awesome. I would have inhaled the Stinger’s Peanut Butter Pro and the Choopko! Yum. I really like the idea of the sunscreen bands, and that mud sounds like it would feel wonderful while soaking in a ‘hot tub’. Ahhhh. Have a great weekend 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
It was a great box this month with lots of variety!
Jennifer @ Running on Lentils says
Oh, I might have to give Runnerbox a try! I’d love to try that mud and the peanut puffs.
Deborah Brooks says
The puffs were surprisingly good and I plan to give the mud a more thorough test tomorrow
Angela @ Happy Fit Mama says
The sport mud sounds awesome! I need that for my tired feet.
Deborah Brooks says
I’m planning to give it a more thorough test after my run tomorrow
Coco says
Interesting stuff! I think I saw those peanut puffs somewhere … maybe at The Fresh Market? They looked good.
Deborah Brooks says
They are different! Strange name though
Salt says
I’ve been back and forth between Runner and StrideBox and I think this might have sealed it! This sounds great!
Deborah Brooks says
Well I’m glad I could help! This month had a great selection of fun, different stuff to try out.
Lora @ Crazy Running Girl says
Looks like you got some fun stuff!!
Deborah Brooks says
I did really like this month’s box!
Alexandra says
Love the idea of the runnerbox- never tried it. I’d be interested to hear what the sweat sport x product is like.
Deborah Brooks says
Well you will probably find out very soon bc they are sending us some MRTT samples!! Thanks for stopping by 🙂
jill conyers says
I love Honey Stinger products! I haven’t had much luck with liking the products in home delivery type services but Runner Box looks like one worth trying. Now, can I have your Honey Stinger Peanut Butta Pro. I’m happy to send you my mailing address 🙂
Great review Deborah!
Deborah Brooks says
I ate the whole thing while I was writing this! Can’t find them anywhere so I’m going to order a case 🙂
Amy @ Life to the Full says
I’ve never heard of Runner’s Box before but I really like what you got this month! Especially the Honey Stinger Peanut Butta Pro. I had seen those before and thought about trying them out – I’m definitely picking one up next time I see them!
Deborah Brooks says
It seriously tasted like a Reese’s it was delish!
Jennifer says
I had no idea stingers made bars! The choopka looks reallly good – they appear to have the same texture as cheesy puffs hah. I
Deborah Brooks says
The puffs are just like Pirate Booty a little lighter than cheese puffs. I can’t fine the bars anywhere around here so I think I am ordering some-they were really good.
AMP runs says
The mud looks pretty awesome! And I think I need those sunscreen bands, although I certainly always apply [more than] enough before I go out!
Deborah Brooks says
I am not good with sunscreen-I know bad!! The mud was an interesting concept I liked it.
Carly @ Fine Fit Day says
Those sunscreen bands are a genius idea! (I’m an Aussie, so I’m kind of obsessed with wearing sunscreen). Also, this is my first time visiting your blog and I LOVE your header cartoon!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks glad you stopped by! The sunscreen bands are a great idea. I am always forgetting to reapply.
Sue @ This Mama Runs for Cupcakes says
Wow, those are all interesting items! I’m part of the Honey Stinger Hive, but have never had a bar before. I might have to try them out!
Deborah Brooks says
seriously so good I ate the whole thing while writing the post 🙂
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
Sunscreens strips are brilliant and I’m always down for some mud! haha fun box!
Deborah Brooks says
I’m liking the mud
