I am fortunate to be able to work with several different companies of products I love. I have partnered with the brands below, and I would love it if you used my link to let them know I directed you to their product. All of the items below are items I have tried and absolutely love and ones I would absolutely love for you to try as well with the help of my discount code.
Lagoon Sleep – 15% off with my code:THERUNNERSPLATE
I have always bought the 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 liked it at first, but it wasn’t until our move, and I went back to using a cheap pillow that I realized how much I do love my Lagoon pillow. I use the Otter pillow, and I absolutely love laying my head on it every night. I also definitely think it helps me sleep better.
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 use it almost every day after my run, and it tastes so good! (And I’ve had a lot of bad protein powders over the years.) I like to blend it in my Vitamix with a oat milk and 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. The cotton candy is by far the best flavor!
Beddy’s Bedding – 15% off with my code: RUNNERSPLATE
I love that this bedding allows Bjorn (my 4 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. Use my code: THERUNNERSPLATE10 for 10% off.
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.
As I acquire more discount codes for you, I will be updating this page and adding them here.
