Every Friday, three DC area bloggers Mary at Mar On the Run, Cynthia at You Signed Up For What?! and Courtney from Eat Pray Run, DC to host the Friday Five linkup. Anyone can join with their own Friday Five post (yes, it must be a Friday Five!!) They encourage you to visit other blogs on the linkup, comment, share and engage!
This week, the theme is Favorite Race Swag
I personally like things that are useful. Here are my 5 favorites:
1. I still use this lunch bag that I won as an Age Group award
2. I love socks.
3. Glasses are cool. It came with a green tooth brush.
4. Wind breakers are practical. I have them in green, blue, yellow and orange. (Unfortunately they stopped giving them out.)
5. And gloves are handy.
Happy Running! What is your favorite race swag?

I like the pint glasses some races give out as AG awards!

A toothbrush is a little weird.
Yeah, I didn’t start doing Last Run until they weren’t giving out windbreakers. Maybe they’ll bring them back someday?

I’ve never received any of these items! So cool. Gloves would be AWESOME at those cold Turkey Trots and Jingle Bell runs.

As much as I love displaying my racing bling, it is also nice for practical things. I got a really nice cooler tote one year for completing all the races in that series. Great for the beach or picnics.

I think my favorite is a beach towel. I’ve never received socks before. That’s a cute idea.

My favorite is my wrap blanket from my half marathon. I have it in my office in case I get cold.
