Five Star Gift Ideas

For a marathon-loving wife, there are plenty of thoughtful and personal gift ideas that would make her Valentine's Day extra special. Consider the following options:

1. Personalized Running Gear: Gift her with custom-made running gear such as a running shirt, shoes, or a water bottle with her name or a motivational message engraved. Not only will she appreciate the personalized touch, but it will also make her feel proud and motivated during her training sessions.

2. Marathon Training Journal: Help her keep track of her progress and goals by gifting her a dedicated marathon training journal. These journals often provide space for tracking workouts, nutrition, milestones, and even offer tips and guidance throughout the training process. It will be a valuable and practical gift for her marathon journey.

3. Running Shoe Upgrade: If she has been using the same pair of running shoes for a while, consider upgrading them to a newer model or a premium brand. This will not only enhance her comfort and performance but also show how much you support her passion for running.

4. Inspirational Running Books: There are plenty of inspiring books about running and marathon training that can provide her with motivation, knowledge, and insights. Look for titles like "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall or "26 Marathons" by Meb Keflezighi, which can offer her inspiring stories and tips from professional runners.

5. Marathon Race Entry: Surprise your wife by registering her for an upcoming marathon race she has been eyeing. Not only will this gift allow her to pursue her passion, but it will also give her something to look forward to and motivate her during her training process.

6. Recovery and Self-Care Kit: Marathon training can take a toll on the body, so gifting her a self-care package will be greatly appreciated. Include items like foam rollers, massage balls, Epsom bath salts, and soothing creams for muscle recovery. This gift will show her that you care about her well-being and recognize the effort she puts into her running.

7. Musical Playlist Subscription: Running with good music can be a game-changer and keep her motivated during long training runs. Consider gifting her a subscription to a music streaming service or a gift card to purchase new running playlists. You can even create a personalized playlist for her with her favorite songs or upbeat tracks to keep her energized.

Remember, the most important aspect of gifting is showing that you appreciate and support her passion for running. A thoughtful and personalized gift catering to her marathon training endeavors will not only make her Valentine's Day memorable but also reinforce the love and understanding you share as a couple.

Or you can get her a star map with the date of your first kiss.

David Dickason says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“Ordered a map of the stars above us when my wife and I realized that we wanted a friendship to turn into something more - gave it to her yesterday (Valentine's Day) and got a most enthusiastic response. We are best pleased!”
