Are you still rushing around trying to get all of those last minute gifts bought, wrapped and ready to go? Or is that just me? Recently, I came across Oprah’s Favorite things list. She describes curating her list with things she loves to give as well as things she loves to use. I’ve modeled my favorite things gift guide for fitness fanatics the same way.
A few of my favorite things-gift guide for fitness fanatics
Running accessories
I’ve decided fun winter running hats are my new accessory. I just found this super cute Furtalk with a pony tail port on top. Stay warn on your run and look fashionable.
Anyone else constantly losing their running gloves? I also feel like I need a few different options for different temps. Just picked up a pair of these Nike’s and so far so good.
I was late to the game with the Aftershokz and thanks to Bibrave, I finally got to try a pair. Full review coming soon. A gift any runner, walker or gym goer would love to receive. Hear your music and hear what’s going on around you.
Favorite Things for your Home Gym
Something every gym needs-a stability ball. I use mine for just about every workout for both balance and strength training moves. So reasonably priced in lots of fun colors grab one for yourself and a friend here.
Activmotion bars-Looking for a versatile piece of equipment that is great for balance and strength? This weighted bar is filled with steel balls that move from side to side requiring you to recruit your core to balance them. Activmotion is available in 3-18 lbs sizes for all levels. Their youtube channel has tons of mini workouts and unique ways to use the bar. Use code Fitapproach25 for 25% off through January.
Favorite Things Treat Yourself
I actually found these Mount Mansfield flavor infused maple syrups on Oprah’s list and added them to my favorite things list as well. Thought some my friends would enjoy the coffee infused or bourbon infused syrups on some post run pancakes. I may have purchased a few on Black Friday. Find them for yourself here.
And finally, pamper those feet! Reward your feet for all the hard work they put in. I do not have a pair of these Vionic slippers (yet) but I’d love to receive a pair myself. With a built in orthotic foot bed, they are a runner’s recovery dream.
“These are a few of my favorite things…” for fitness fanatics. Any of these on your wish list?

I haven’t heard of those slippers, but you can bet I’m going to add them to my list!!! My Uggs are wearing out.
Deborah Brooks says
I like the idea of the orthotic inside instead of the flat uggs. I want a pair as well!
Maureen @ Maureen Gets Real says
Aftershokz had a BOGO sale on Black Friday so I bought Alex a pair and will keep the free pair for myself. I’ve been dying to break open the box but I feel like I have to wait!
The hat with the ponytail hole is genius.
Deborah Brooks says
I hope you and Alex enjoy your aftershokz!
Debbie says
I always lose my running gloves! I even lost one on the run last year because I’d taken it off and tucked them in my waistband. So I’m in the market. And I’ve decided I need that cap with the ponytail port! It’s not cold enough here very often but I love that my pony can fly free! 🤣
Deborah Brooks says
The ponytail ports are the best! Your hair has to fly free 🙂
Annmarie says
Oooh those gloves look niiiice. I asked for a pair from Santa this year – hope he picked some up for me 😉

I hope so too! These are the perfect loves so far love them

I really want to get myself a pair of the slippers

These are great! I’m so excited to have a chance to try the Aftershokz! Since my hair is short I don’t need a ponytail hole. 😉
Deborah Brooks says
I know you are going to love them!

Those Nike gloves look warm. What temperature are they good for?

Ooh I’d like those slippers too!
Thanks for linking up!

Love your gift suggestions. Comfy slippers for after a run? Yes, please! I thought the maple syrup was booze when I first saw the picture! 😀
Deborah Brooks says
The syrup does look so good kind of wish I had bought an extra for myself too
The Accidental Marathoner says
All the items in your post are so color-coordinated! I love those Nike gloves. My son bought me a pair of running gloves for Christmas last year, but they just don’t cut it in temps below freezing. I’ll have to check them out. Those slippers look so comfy!
Deborah Brooks says
When it is super super cold, I add hand warmers into my gloves. The slippers do look great don’t they
Kimberly Hatting says
Great list! I need to hit up the ActivMotion site and play Santa for myself. Like, today! Those syrups sound delish, too 😉
Deborah Brooks says
The syrups do look amazing kind of wish I had bought an extra one for myself
Michelle @ Running with Attitude says
I’m on the constant hunt for new running gloves – largely because I keep losing one! I like the look of those Nike gloves.
Deborah Brooks says
I am loving them so far!

I love that hat! I found a hairband with a ponytail holder but never seen this before. Filed away for when hair is longer again.
Deborah Brooks says
I am loving them!
