My Discount Codes

I have a couple new discount codes I am excited to share with you: Skida + Previnex!

I wear Skida’s headbands, hats, and neck warmers all the time in the winter and on cooler spring and fall days. I fell in love with their items several years ago and have been a big fan since. They have the cutest patterns, are functional items for cool/cold running days, and reasonably-priced. I’ve asked for a discount code in the past and finally have one that they gave to me for my followers to use any time they want!

And Previnex is where I get all of my supplements along with my creatine, which I am a big fan of as I do think it has helped me run the fastest I ever have in my life. They have high standards for their products, do third-party testing, and donate a bottle of their children’s multivitamin to at-risk children around the world for every order placed.

This entire list of items are things I personally use and love, and ones I think you should check out too. Use my discount code if you purchase so you can save a little money and the brand knows I sent you!

Lagoon Sleep – 15% off with my code: THERUNNERSPLATE
I have always bought cheap pillows from Target or Walmart and just accepted the fact I would have to replace them regularly, and it would always take me a few tries to find the right comfort for my head each night as I am a 1.5 pillow sleeper. (Basically one super flat pillow, along with a regular-thickness pillow. Ha!) It was always so hard to find the right height and plushness: not too firm but not too soft either. That was until I tried a Lagoon pillow! And wow, I immediately started sleeping better. I have never been a terrible sleeper, but these pillows help me sleep even deeper and more soundly. I even gave one to Craig for his birthday (lame, I know), but every morning he raves about how well he sleeps–and he has always struggled with sleep. We both have the Otter pillow and love them so much!

Prevenix – 15% off with my code: THERUNNERSPLATE
I am a minimalist when it comes to supplements. I take three supplements each day: multivitamin, fish oil, and iron. I want high-quality supplements that are third-party tested and ones that are backed by science. I’ve tried a lot of supplements, looked at a lot of different supplements’ websites, and it’s pretty clear what kind of quality you are getting. I feel confident purchasing from Previnex because they are science-backed, do third-party testing, and I have talked to the owner who knows his stuff. In addition to taking their multi-vitamin and fish oil, I also love their Muscle Health PLUS, which is their creatine supplement. I started taking it about a year ago, and I have seen a huge jump in fitness since I started taking it. (I fully realize I had to do other things right for this to happen!) But I find myself recovering like I did in my early 30s, now in my early 40s. I am stronger and faster than I ever have been, and I think creatine has played a role in that.

Skida – 15% off with my code: RUNNERSPLATE15
I have been obsessed with Skida hats, headbands, and neckwarmers since 2017. We first brought them into the running store I worked at in Anchorage (Skinny Raven), and I immediately fell in love with the prints, the hand-made quality (locally made in Vermont), and the reasonable price point. I now own so many of their products, and I particularly love the Running Hats, Alpine Headbands, Running Headbands, Snow Tour Neck Gaiter, Alpine Neckwarmers, and Balaclavas.

SPIbelt – 20% off with my code: THERUNNERSPLATE
I cannot say enough good things about SPIbelts. I use it to carry my phone, gels, keys, or any other small items during my run. It is so comfortable to wear, and I forget I am wearing it because it is so slim and does not bounce. I wear it pretty high–around my belly button, and if I try to wear it lower, it does ride up. So many other runners use SPIbelts when they run and for a good reason!

Just Ingredients – 10% off with my code: RUNNERSPLATE
There are so many good, clean, healthy products on the Just Ingredients website, but I especially love the Strawberry & Cream Protein Powder. I like to blend it in my Vitamix with a oat milk, banana, ice–super easy and very tasty–to get my protein requirement in in order to rebuild my muscles after my run. I also really like the Orange Pineapple Electrolytes throughout the day!

Liquid IV – 20% off + FREE shipping with my code: THERUNNERSPLATE
We all know about the importance of hydration, but it is also important to take in electrolytes–even in the winter. The electrolyte powders from Liquid IV taste good and provide the necessary electrolytes to replace after a good sweat session.

Beddy’s Bedding – 15% off with my code: RUNNERSPLATE
I love that this bedding allows Bjorn (my 5 year old) to easily make his bed and have his bed be neat and tidy since I am a self-proclaimed neat freak. The fitted sheet, flat sheet, and blanket are all built into the bedding, which makes it very easy for kids to make their bed each morning. The bedding is also very easy to wash and comes off the mattress in one piece, which can then easily be put back on. These kits are worth every penny, and I love all of the pretty designs they have.

Cooldown – 10% off with my code: THERUNNERSPLATE10
Definitely check out the running clothing from Cooldown. I got their Mikelle Bra, which I love, and the Alkal Short, which remind me of the Fast and Free shorts from lululemon. I love the colors that they have and the fun designs. I will caution you if you chafe easily, you may want to avoid the Alkal short as I could feel myself start to chafe from the brief liner a little bit in it when I wore it on a summer run. Otherwise, the bra was great, and I want to try the Emmy short too.

Nathan
If you need a slim, easy-to-carry, handheld running water bottle, check out the products from Nathan–especially the ExoShot (14oz) and ExoDraw (18oz) running water bottles. I do not like to carry anything when I run, but I will carry these because they have very little sloshing, and they collapse as you drink from them. There’s a pocket on them for a gel (or your keys, money, etc.), and I love the bite-down nozzle for drinking from for easy hydration. I’m a big fan on these, and I have purchased from them a couple times when someone stole the sleeve of my bottle after I left it laying on a ground during a workout. (I was coming back for it!)

Noxgear
This is hands-down the best lighted vest out there on the market. I get compliments and comments on it all the time and people are always asking me where I got it. The lighted vest makes me feel more confident running early in the morning to avoid being hit by a car. I know it is much easier to see because I’ve been that motorist, and when someone is lit up, it makes them so much easier to see. I also love that it fits so much better than the knock-off Amazon vests I’ve tried. I don’t have a discount code, but the brand often has sales or discounts on bundles, so check it out.
