StrideBox

I got my June StrideBox yesterday. I was kind of disappointed. I know it's June and as summer heats up (hahaha Houston...anyways) I know I will use the hydration stuff but there were two items that stuck out for me. First off I LOVE me a good massage anything. So the Foot Rubz really grabbed my attention, so much so that my youngest ran off with have the stuff in my box before I knew that I had been robbed. It's this tiny golf ball sized knobby ball that you can stand or sit and roll on the floor under your foot. Works fucking GREAT. It is small enough that you can even roll it between your toes. It is durable enough that you can apply pressure to where it really hurts on your foot without it collapsing. I think my husband will be the most thankful one for this product, since hopefully now I won't be begging him to rub my feet all the time. The other item I found interesting was an electrolyte popsicle, kind of like a runners Otter Pop. I didn't get to try it yet since A it wasn't frozen and B it was one of the items my kid ran off with. But it is something I didn't know was even on the market so in the next day or two when the empty wrapper turns up I will have to research it.

Got to go out this morning and get my first true beginning of summer run in. Way slow but it felt good being able to get out the door and not have to worrying about if I go a certain way will I get back before I have to wake the boy up. Managed 4 miles before I made the turn home.
