It was my birthday a few weeks ago and it turned into a bit of a lovely running fest. I am now the proud owner of a running diary and a special pen in which to record my efforts (must try harder with my appalling handwriting) AND some sweatshop vouchers to spend on some proper kit (instead of scratting around the bargain bin at Sports Direct).
I have also been entered into two races, one real and one virtual.
And I treated myself to Tagnix id bracelet so that when I next fall over, I can be retrieved from the gutter and returned home safely. I had mentioned my birthday to the lovely people at Tagnix and when I got back from the Spitfire weekend, I had an extra little treat in with my order!
This was my second set of Event Clips that weekend (technically my third as I lost my first set within hours of being given them) as I sported by UK Fitness Bloggers set for the whole weekend and they are rather good. No more stabbing yourself with safety pins. Oh, that’s just me then…
All products mentioned in this post were either given to me by lovely people cos it was my birthday or were paid for with my own hard earned cash.
Travelling Hopefully 
I love that it’s not just me who gets entered into races for their birthday present (our boys know us well, don’t they?)! That all sounds just brilliant. Lovely journal and pen too, I don’t doubt you will be looking back over it on your next birthday and clocking all the post-becoming-a-mum PBs…:)
That was lovely by the guys at Tagnix! Hope you had a lovely birthday. 🙂
I’ve never received a race entry as a birthday gift before annoyingly. Although, it might be for the best as I enter enough races on my own. I’d end up with no free weekends ever!
Happy running birthday! It’s great having positive things like races for birthdays. I did my first virtual run in August and have another for September 🙂
Love the event clips- I bought some last year and then got given some from my running club (with our logo on each one)- they are so much better than safety pins!
I want a special pen. Does it have magic powers?
That’s a great gift! I too am doing the Wigan10k. I hope you have a great time. Iv been told the atmosphere is amazing! X
