Product Review: StrideBox
February 28, 2015 Leave a comment
As a runner, any time there’s something to try, I’m willing to try it once. My mom decided to send me a 6 month subscription of StrideBox, a service that sends out running related samples once a month for people who subscribe.
The basics- where to find them!

How it works
If you have a runner you love, you can send it as a gift as a 1 month, 3 month, 6 month or year long subscription. Fees range from $20 to $180 depending on how many boxes you want to send over the year. If you’re buying for yourself, $15 as a sign up fee and $15/mo. Your first box ships the Friday after you sign up and the first Friday of the month. Each box has 6-8 running related samples in it.
February Box
My box came on Friday, so a nice little end of the week surprise to kick off the weekend! What’d I get this month?
- Nuun Hydration tab. I get to throw it in a bottle of water and give it a try on this weekend’s run. Hopefully I can find it likable so I can get some flavor into water so I drink more of it
- iGloves. Perfect for the negative windchill we’ve been having in Cleveland this winter so I can save my hands and still take calls on my phone
- Picky Bars. Never heard of them but excited to try them!
- High Protein coffee. Never been a coffee drinker, so this will likely be going to my mom 🙂
- Joshua Tree Lip Balm
- Skratch hydration
- Chia Surge. Another energy supplement it looks like. We’ll see if it agrees with me!

What you get: 6-8 running related samples. February included: iGloves, High Protein coffee mix, Chi Surge, Picky Bars, Nuun, chapstick, and stickers
I love the idea of this. It’s like a Birch Box for runners and we’re always trying to find new things that work for us, so this gives us the opportunity to try some samples before spending a boatload on something, only to find out it doesn’t work. You can start/stop receiving it whenever you’d like, but hopefully I’ll stick with this for awhile!
