We are excited to be gearing up to start shipping out the August/September RunnerBoxes! Fall marathons are approaching, and mileage is ramping up. We here at RunnerBox have been busy testing out many great products and one of them is from a great company called PocketFuel. They have different flavors of nut butter blends in a reusable pouch, with a cap. Awesome for when you are out running or cycling and don't want to finish the entire pouch. Stow it away and save the rest for later. 100% natural, whole food ingredients consisting of nuts, seeds and fruits for a slow burning, easy to digest food. Perfect fuel before a long run. Flavors include: Chocolate Smackaroon, Chia Goji & Honey, Chocolate Espresso, Vanilla Haze, and more. Difficult to choose a favorite, they are all good! Here is their company's story as told by Heidi, their co-founder. PocketFuel is the brainchild of Mark Ribkoff. He is a product designer and innovator who brought that passion for perfection to PocketFuel. As an athlete with a competitive background and a triathlete training for his first IronMan he was looking for ways to fuel his body in a healthy, simple & portable way. He wanted real food, high in protein, fats and other important nutrients delivered in an easy to digest format. And it had to taste awesomely good. PocketFuel is WHOLE FOOD FUEL packaged in an entirely new way. We believe in using the best ingredients and the most innovative packaging we can. We use no preservatives or additives and are committed to selling something that we are passionate about. If we don’t LOVE the taste and texture of something, it doesn’t make the cut! You can take your PocketFuel on the road with you, camping, hiking, back-country skiing or sailing and refuel as you need. Or you can use it at home or the office. All of us at PocketFuel are committed and stoked athletes. We run, bike, swim, ski, kite, paddle, surf, hike, sail…. whatever gets us OUT playing and enjoying the day.

The Only 6 Things You Need for a Perfect Valentine’s Day
Listen, we love romance. And if your Valentine is the kind of person who prefers long workouts over long-stemmed roses, we have some ideas to level up your game. A six-part plan for the perfect evening (and maybe even scoring bonus points in the process). 1. Thorne Berry Amino Complex 🍷 Sip, recover, repeat. Forget rosé—start the evening off with this blend. If they love pushing their limits, this will help them bounce back faster (so they can do it all over again). 2. The Valentine's Day Box of Fitness Chocolates 💘 Chocolate, but make it functional. Not to toot our own horn, but toot toot! We've been told this box is "genius" and we must be on to something because we're almost sold out. And you're in luck, these chocolates pair perfectly with the Thorne Aminos you'll be sipping on. 3. Zealios Muscle Rub 💆♀️Massage by you first. Muscle rub second. Trust us, they'll love it. It's time to move to the massage portion of the evening and a real “I love you”? A post-workout rub-down. Ideal for recovery, relief, and the most romantic massage any athlete could ask for. 4. Stinkbug Anti-Chafe Balm 🔥 Because nothing kills the mood like chafing. If things are going well, this anti-chafe will come in handy. Beacuse whether you're running, riding, or sweating through a "HIT workout" (wink, wink), chafing doesn’t care. 5. Water Bottle + Electrolytes 💦 They need hydration after that workout (or…😉) No matter what type of effort they're dripping from, a quality water bottle + electrolytes will keep them fresh, hydrated, and functioning. 6. Fuel Goods Buff 👀 Bonus points if you hand them this gift while actually “in the buff.” We couldn't help but have fun with this one. The buff itself is lightweight and so cozy. But it's the way you present it that makes it a winner. There you have it! Now go make Valentine's Day a personal best! PS - We' already did the hard part -just grab the full athlete romance package HERE.
